Sprinkle lightly with lemon juice, sweetener, and spices. Combine the flour, egg, brown sugar, and cold water; beat smooth. Spoon the batter over the apples. Sprinkle the top of the batter lightly with additional spices. Pour the boiling water in a thin stream over the batter. Bake uncovered, in a preheated 375 oven, for 30 minutes. To serve: Cut into squares or wedges; invert each serving on a dessert plate. Spoon on some of the apple pudding sauce that forms in the bottom of the pan. Refrigerate leftover cake and serve chilled; the sauce will form a pudding-like glaze. {110 calories per serving; 120 with honey; 85 with sugar substitute} SOURCE: Slim Gourmet Sweets & Treats (pg. 33-34) ----
