I decided to break out my 1970 personal cookbook and see if I could remake some recipes that we considered comfort food. Less salt, sugar, trans fats, hydroginated oils, HFCS, and no fake.
Substituting butter for shortening will change the texture a bit because shortening is pure fat, and butter is 15 percent water.
Apple Raisen Bake
2 medium apples, peeled and sliced thin.
1/3 cup craisens
1/4 cup chopped nuts **
1/3 cup brown sugar , firmly packed
Mix and spread in square greased baking pan

1/2 cup sugar
3/4 tsp EACH of soda, salt
1/8 tsp baking power

3/4 cup applesauce, no sugar added
1/4 cup water
1/2 a stick of butter (1/4 cup)

Place all remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl and blend well for one minute. Then, beat on medium for 3 minutes. Pour over fruit mixture in pan
