This recipe was inspired by a little cafe I used to frequent, tucked into the mountains of Southern California. One fall I was determined to make something very close and after many attempts, this was and is the result! My family was very happy that particular autumn season and needless to say, we went through a lot of apples. No one complained at each attempt, though this is The One recipe requested all the time and in my family, I'm known for it!
