APPLE MAPLE PUDDING BAKE

8 Servings = 3 PointsPlus™

6 Servings = 4 PointsPlus™

2/3 cup sugar-free maple syrup

1 1/2 tsp corn starch

1 cup water

4 TBSP & 1 tsp light butter, divided

1 cup all purpose flour

2 TBSP & 2 tsp Splenda granulated, divided

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1 1/2 cup peeled & chopped apples

1/3 cup fat-free milk

1/2 tsp vanilla

1/4 tsp cinnamon

In a sauce pan, combine water, sugar-free maple syrup and corn starch. Cook and stir until boiling. Cook and stir 2 minutes more.

Add 1 TBSP of the light butter. Pour into 8x8x2" baking dish (2 quart square).

In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flour, 2 TBSP Splenda granulated and baking powder. Cut in 3 TBSP light butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the apples. Add the milk and vanilla; stir just until batter is moistened.

Using a tablespoon, drop the apple batter into the warm syrup mixture in the baking dish.

Combine the remaining 2 tsp Splenda granulated and the cinammon; sprinkle over the batter. Dot the top with the remaining 1 tsp light butter.

Bake at 350º for 40 - 45 minutes.

MY SPIN: The only thing I did differently was I sprinkled alot more cinnamon on the top....but I love cinnamon!!! I can see doing this recipe using peaches or apricots as well. It's truly delicious.
