Fresh Apple or Peach Strudel
I found a new cookbook, and it’s filled with recipes collected from Texans that are members of electric co-ops. Being in an electric co-op means you’re living the rural life, and I’m hopeful that means there will be some creative recipes from adventurous chefs. And their title got me giggling, too.
Typically Texas, compiled and edited by Mary Graham / Texas Co-op Power, 1970

Into the bottom of a buttered baking dish (oblong) put thick layers of apples (or peaches). Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, mixed. Dot with lumps of butter.
Into a mixing bowl, sift:
1 cup sugar
1 t. baking powder
1 cup flour
1/2 t. salt
Into this, break one (1) egg.
Mix until crumbly. Put over apples (or peaches). Bake in a moderate (350 degree) oven until the crust is brown. Serve with milk, whipped cream, or ice cream.
