Raw Spiced Apple Custard
« on: March 09, 2010, 10:56:30 am »
Name of Recipe:  Raw Spiced Apple Custard
Ingredients:
45g linseeds (1/4 cup)
35g sunflower seeds (1/4 cup)
35g pumpkin seeds (1/4 cup)
3-4 apples, cored & quartered
1/4 t nutmeg
1/2 t ground cloves
1 t cinnamon
40g dessicatted coconut
70g raisins or sultanas

Procedure:
Finely grind the seeds, speed 9, 15 seconds.  Set aside.
Puree the apples, speed 9, 20 seconds.
Add back the seeds, raisins or sultanas, and coconut.  Stir through, reverse, speed 4 10 seconds.

Story:
This was a failed apple ball recipe.  It was delicious, but too wet to roll into balls so I was snacking on it - yum.  My DD saw it and thought it was chocolate custard and naturally wanted some.  So I gave her a taste, and she ended up eating a bowlful.  Hence the name Raw Spiced Apple Custard.

Tips/Hints:
Naturally the surface does go brown over time in the fridge.  Some lemon juice would stop it from browning, but citrus doesn't work in our family so I haven't tried that.

Edited to add - the mixture is quite brown, probably because of the linseeds.  Sesame seeds would probably result in better colour but I was trying to keep the recipe school friendly.  But, at least it looks like chocolate custard - sort of.

If it fools the little buggers into tinking it's chocolate then probably brown is good.  Ta

What a wonderful thing to discover by accident. Well done.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.
