Apples


So... things have been rather crazy around here as we're adjusting to our new normal.  I'm finding just a few minutes here and there to post about what's going on in our kitchen, but not nearly enough time to keep up on the blogworld or responding to comments like I used to...

One thing that has been keeping me busy in our kitchen has been apples!


Oh, how I love apples.


And, this is the best apple invention. Ever.  I don't know how I would process and make all the yummy apple goodies of fall without one!  It's one of the best wedding gifts we received (and certainly one of the most used!)!!  Save those peels... you can make delicious tea from them.

I once wrote a post about a variety of different apples with much more biology included than most people care to know about when thinking about their fruits ;-)

In honor of the fall air that's blown into town, and because the Ingredient Spotlight today over at Eat at Home is Apples, I thought I'd entice you with a few apple ideas for your fall palate:





{perfect for ice cream, or waffles/pancakes}


{a healthy - and delicious- alternative to apple pie}


{made from apple peels!}


{without a dehydrator}


Apple Cake
{Frog Prince's Grandfather's Recipe!}




{the best applesauce. ever}




{A simple and delicious dessert}

  11. This is where I get to look at you all up north and have apple envy. I've so often wished I could jump in the car and go apple picking like we do blueberries and strawberries. Enjoy!
    I'll still go and buy some at the farmer's market and try the apple cake recipe, thanks for sharing!
