This 19th century recipe for apple pan dowdy, aka cottage pudding with apples, caught my eye in an historic cookbook when I was trawling for an old-fashioned dessert that wasn't a pie. Cottage pudding is actually a simple cake; maybe the word "pudding" was used as the British use it, to mean any and all desserts?
