Emailing List Recipes

What do these recipes have in common? They all came from the infamous long-since-forgotten emailing list, including Slow Cooker Macaroni and Cheese and Pineapple Cream Pie. Enjoy!

COFFEE CAKE

Ingredients

1 C flour

1 1/2 T shortening

1/4 tsp. salt

1 egg, beaten

1 1/2 T sugar

3 T cold water

2 tsp. baking powder

1 T (rounded) raisins

Directions

Sift & measure flour. Combine dry ingredients & work in shortening. Add egg & water; stir gently. Add raisins. Spread dough on small greased pie tin. Sprinkle sugar & cinnamon on top. Bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

MINI APPLE PIES

This came from the infamous long-since-forgotten emailing list. The notes on here are from the original author.

Ingredients

4 ramekins (small glazed ceramic serving bowls)

2 large tart-sweet apples (I use ones that are half green half red)

2 Tablespoons arrowroot or cornstarch or 1 Tablespoons flour

1-2 Tablespoons vegan margarine (I use Earth Balance)

2 Tablespoons maple syrup or agave nectar

apple pie spice

1/4 cup rolled oats

2 Tablespoons flour

raw sugar

The ingredient amounts are approximations, I just guess as I go!

Directions

Cut apples into 1/2 " dice and place into a bowl. Add 2 Tablespoons arrowroot, a few big shakes of pie spice and the liquid sweetener. Mix until evenly coated and pack down into ramekins leaving 1/2" from top.

In a bowl mix oats and margarine until combined add flour. Mixture should look like crumbly oats, if too dry add more margarine.

Distribute between ramekins, lightly packing on top, sprinkle with sugar.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. The top will give when pressed, & you will see bubbling.

SLOWCOOKER MACARONI AND CHEESE
