Apple pie-cake



Did this just happen? Did Gretchen Noelle over at Canela & Comino seriously just post a recipe on Slashfood's Flickr account that combines two of the world's best known food groups, cake and pie? (Er - and fruit, too).

You'd better believe she did. This pake (cie?) melds the sweet, juicy fruit filling of a pie with a crust that mixes the slight crumbly nature of a pie crust and the soft, buttery notes of cake.

Upon closer inspection, the recipe was taken from Baking From My Home to Yours, and is officially titled the "Russian Grandmothers Apple Pie-Cake."

Gretchen suggests substituting cranberries for raisins if you're not a huge raisin fan. Some walnuts or pecans might be a nice addition, too. I might also add a dash of nutmeg to the filling, just because it tends to bring out the best flavors in dishes like this. Otherwise...muah *kisses fingertips*.

Oh! And check out the recipe here.
