Vanilla Sugar - split & scrape a fresh bean, then plunge the biggest piece of the bean into a couple of cups of sugar. Two weeks and you'll have vanilla sugar!
|
|
|
Add the cinnamon to the vanilla sugar...
|
|
|
...use a mini-whisk to combine them well & set aside.
|
|
|
Render your finely diced bacon. When done, drain and set aside on a towel. (Save the fat for another dish later)
|
|
|
Bring together the cooked bacon, brown sugar, salt and spices in a sauce pan, over med-low heat...
|
|
|
...to candy the bacon...
|
|
|
...keep a eye on it - you do not want the sugar to burn...be ready to add the water...
|
|
|
...the water will cook the flour and produce a thick, rick, wonderful sauce for your topping
|
|
|
Set aside the sauce and peel and thinly slice the apples, layer them in the greased dish...
|
|
|
...then pour the sauce over the apples
|
|
|
Mix your dough and drop 8 nice, rough biscuits around the dish...
|
|
|
...then dust the biscuits with the vanilla sugar and cinnamon. Ready for the oven now.
|
|
|
Up close & personal - the caramel topping has permeated through the apples & the vanilla-cinnamon sugar enhances a buttery golden drop biscuit
|
|
|
The end result - as 'down home' a dessert as anyone could want. Easy to make - real easy to eat
