Story:
This was a failed apple ball recipe. It was delicious, but too wet to roll into balls so I was snacking on it - yum. My DD saw it and thought it was chocolate custard and naturally wanted some. So I gave her a taste, and she ended up eating a bowlful. Hence the name Raw Spiced Apple Custard.
Tips/Hints:
Naturally the surface does go brown over time in the fridge. Some lemon juice would stop it from browning, but citrus doesn't work in our family so I haven't tried that.
Edited to add - the mixture is quite brown, probably because of the linseeds. Sesame seeds would probably result in better colour but I was trying to keep the recipe school friendly. But, at least it looks like chocolate custard - sort of.
