Biscuits with Maple-Apple Sauce Canada: Quebec



Biscuits with Maple-Apple Sauce Canada: Quebec

Maple – Apple Sauce

3 Tablespoon butter

¾ cup finely chopped, peeled apple

1/3 cup maple syrup

Biscuits

1 cup all purpose flour (plus extra for work surface)

2 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

3 tablespoon cold butter, cut into small pieces

1/3 cup milk (about)

Preheat oven to 375. Lightly flour a work surface for rolling out the biscuit dough.

Make the sauce: Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat. Stir in the apple and cook until it softens. Stir in the maple syrup and cook just until warm. Pour the mixture into a 9-inch cake pan, coating the bottom evenly.

Make the biscuit dough: Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Cut in the cold butter. Lightly rub the butter and flour mixture between your fingers until it looks like coarse breadcrumbs. Stir in just enough milk to form a soft dough. Turn the dough out onto the floured surface. Gently knead it, 5 or 6 turns, just until the dough comes together smoothly. (Don’t mix or knead the dough too much or the biscuits will be tough.)

Roll the dough (or pat it out) to a thickness of about ½ inch. Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a small drinking glass dipped in flour, cut the dough into 9 biscuits. Place the biscuits in the pan on top of the sauce. Bake 14 to 16 minutes, until the sauce bubbles up around the biscuits. Serve hot.
