One cup of scalded milk, one-third cup of butter, one-third cup of sugar, one-third teaspoonful of salt, one yeast cake, two eggs, flour, melted butter, five sour apples, one-quarter cup of sugar, one-half teaspoonful of cinnamon, two tablespoonfuls of currants.

Mix first four ingredients. When lukewarm, add yeast cake, eggs unbeaten, and flour to make a soft dough. Cover, let rise, beat thoroughly and again let rise. Spread in a buttered dripping-pan as thinly as possible, and brush over with melted butter. Pare, cut in eights, and remove cores from apples.

Press sharp edges of apples into the dough in parallel rows lengthwise of pan. Sprinkle, with sugar mixed with cinnamon, and with currants. Cover, let rise, and bake in a moderate oven thirty minutes. Cut in squares and serve hot or cold with whipped cream sweetened and flavored.
