Pot Apple Pie

DDV CULINARY

Pare and slice your apples, and put them in a pot.
Make your crust of a half a pint of sour milk,
sweeten it with a little molasses,
add a little allspice,
lay it over the top of your apples,
leave an opening for the steam to pass through;
put a little water to your apple,
let it stew slowly, three-quarters of an hour;
when done, take up your crust in one dish,
spice and sweeten your apple in another;
slice your crust, and cover it with your apples.
To be eaten with butter, while warm.
