There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Terrine de pommes - Untested


1 cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ginger
Pinch of Cloves
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp melted butter (unsalted)
1/2 cup whole milk (room temp)
1 tsp vanilla extract (or vanilla bean paste)
3 large eggs
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 lb apples, peeled and sliced ​​1/8-inch thick
  1. Preheat oven to 375˚F. Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. Using a knife or a mandoline, slice apples into 1/8” slices.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and spices.
  4. In a separate small bowl, whisk together melted butter, milk and vanilla.
  5. In a separate large bowl, beat eggs and sugar for 90 seconds on medium speed, until pale. Add half of the flour mixture and mix on low speed until combined, then add the butter/milk mixture, then the remaining flour, mixing just until the batter comes together.
  6. Add the apples to the bowl and gently toss until they are evenly coated in the batter.
  7. Layer the apples into the prepared loaf pan. Pour any remaining batter in the pan. Bake for ~75 minutes until golden brown around the edges and a toothpick comes out clean. It may take longer depending on how thick your apple slices are. Let cool for at least one hour before slicing and serving.
