Ingredients

Scale
  • ¾ cup pearl tapioca or ½ cup minute (instant) tapioca
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 6 apples
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

  1. If pearl tapioca is used, soak it for 4 or 5 hours and then drain off all the water. Minute tapioca will need no soaking. Add the tapioca to the boiling water and salt.
  2. Cook in a double boiler until the tapioca is entirely transparent.
  3. Peel and core the apples. Place them in a buttered baking dish, fill each cavity with sugar and cinnamon, and place a piece of butter on top of each.
  4. Pour the hot tapioca over these, place in a hot oven, and bake until the apples are soft.
  5. Serve either hot or cold with sugar and cream.
