I have to admit this is the first time I’ve ever baked anything with apples and not added cinnamon, but I decided to give it a go with just grated fresh ginger for flavor – woowwwww loved it warm out of the oven, so good even better next day from the fridge. Yellow raisins for sure, since I had plain greek yogurt I just added a few tsp of sugar to the custard mix.
