Good morning Uncle Phadreus,

This sounds like an easy recipe to find but there is one by Joan Nathan 
I am looking for.  I made it once before and now cannot find the recipe.
It is either called bottomless or crustless.  It was delicious:)
It was more of a crisp, I guess, made in a rectangular lasagna like pan
and it was quite hefty.  Joan has apple pie on her website but not the 
same one. There was something different about it that made it so good.

I have looked through your index and will continue to search.

Thank you very much for your help.

Once before I wrote to you about "Stand Up Cookies" which are like a 
biscotti.
You were not able to find anything.  We have decided it is a family
recipe someone along the way made up and it lives on with each
generation 🙂.  Still the family favorite.

Thanks again,
Linda 

Hi Linda,

There are several apple pie recipes associated with Joan Nathan on the web, and there are several apple pie recipes that are called "bottomless" or "crustless" and that are baked in a square or rectangular pan.

However, I had no success locating one in which the twain meet. Sorry.

Joan Nathan published a number of cookbooks. Perhaps it's in one of them.

I will post this for reader input.
