Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spray a 1 ½ quart baking dish or cast iron skillet with cooking spray. We used a 9" pie plate.
Arrange the sliced apples in the baking dish.
Sprinkle the apples with nutmeg, cinnamon and salt over the apples. Drizzle evenly with molasses.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
While the apples are baking, combine the flour, baking powder and sugar in a medium bowl. Whisk well.
Add in the melted butter, milk and whisked egg. Mix just until combined. Do not over mix.
After the apples have baked for 20 minutes, spoon the batter over the apples, then bake for another 20-25 minutes or until the toothpick inserted in the topping comes out clean.
Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
You can serve right from the dish, or you can turn it upside down onto a platter and serve with the apples on top.
