Apple Rag Doll Gone Awry

This original recipe called for the dough to be rolled out, sprinkled with apples and rolled up jelly roll fashion. My dough was a sticky mess that did not roll or pat into a nice shape, and it certainly didn't hold apples and roll up nicely. So I improvised by altering the recipe. Tasted great, and my family enjoyed it greatly with ice cream.

Apple Rag Doll Gone Awry
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 cups flour
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. sugar
3 Tbsp. oil
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
2 cups peeled and chopped apples
Sugar/cinnamon mixture

Boil water and 1 1/2 cups sugar together for 2 minutes. Let cool. Mix dry ingredients together. Mix in oil, and then add lightly beaten egg and milk. Set dough aside. Pour syrup into 9 x 13 pan. Layer with apples, and sprinkle generously with cinnamon/sugar. Spread pieces of dough on top of apples. Sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar. Bake at 375ºF for 40 minutes. Serve warm with ice cream.
