K C Dutch Apple Cake

This recipe was taken from The Cook's Book printed 1921 by K C Baking Powder . The process to make this takes a little bit of time but, it is well worth it. Let me know what you think.

Sift these ingredients together 3 times.
2 cups pastry flour
2 level teaspoons KC Baking Powder
1/2 tsp salt

With the tips of fingers work into the flour mixture:
1/4 cup (2oz) butter

Seperately beat 1 egg and add 3/4 cup milk. Stir this into flour mixture. Spread the dough into a well buttered shallow pan (I found that a 9x13 pan works well.).

Peel 5 apples and cut into eight pieces each. Place these pointed side down in parallel rows.

stir together:
1/4 cups sugar (2 0z)
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1/4 cup dried currants (or any small pieces of dried fruit)
Sprinkle this over the apples and dough.Bake in a moderate oven (this means about 350). There is not time mentioned and I think it took about 40 minutes but, watch after 20 minutes to be sure. This is great for an after the meal dessert with a hard sauce or a snack anytime with butter.
