Apple-tapioca Pudding
This heavy pudding is a tasty occasional treat for those who are trying to gain weight. If you are not trying to gain weight you can also enjoy this occasional treat by substituting some of the ingredients with their less heavy counterparts.
The Tapioca component in this recipe is Tapioca Flour which is high in carbohydrates which makes this recipe high in calories. Therefore this recipe is more suited for an occasional treat for those trying to gain weight, even though it includes apples with all of their health benefits, including the lowering of bad cholesterol because of its pectin content.
2 cups Fair Trade Organic Cane Sugar
1/2 cup Organic Butter
2 Cups Tapioca Flour
1 tsp. Fair Trade Cinnamon
1 tsp. Ground Sea Salt
1 tsp. Baking Soda
4 Cups Peeled and Chopped Apples
½ Cup Fair Trade Organic Brown Sugar
½ Cup Walnuts Roughly Chopped, Fair Trade or Locally Grown preferred

I suggest that while you are preparing this recipe that you listen to the music album Desperate Straights by Slapp Happy/Henry Cow.
