From "A Taste of the Missions"
Notes: I cut the apples back. The recipe called for 5-6, but the five I did were enough for the baking dish and the gluten-free version.
I used only apple cider vinegar.
I might add chopped pecans to the topping the next time I make it.
I think it would actually work with pecans and possibly raisins instead of the green chiles.(Think of Apfel Strudel.)
