Apple Crisp

This will probably be my last post for a while. I'm getting really tired. Baby #5 will be here in the next few weeks. I'm hoping to be back in the kitchen this fall.

Cut up and place on the bottom of a 9x13 buttered casserole dish:

8 green apples

Mix together with pastry cutter, or in mixer:

1 stick cold butter
3/4 brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg

Add 1/2 cup at a time:

2 cups oats

Spoon topping over cut apples. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes uncovered.

Peach Cobbler

There are a lot of ways to make a peach cobbler. But this way was easy because I used the bottled peach pie filling.

Pour 2 bottles of peach pie filling in a 9x13 pan. Do not grease.

Sprinkle 2 T flour over the top of pie filling. This helps thicken the filling.

Now for the topping...

In a mixing bowl dump and mix:

2 cups flour
2 T sugar
1 T baking powder
1 tsp salt

Now using a pastry cutter, cut in:

6 T shortening

Add using a fork:

1 cup milk (I use 3 T powder milk, and 1 cup water)

Spoon large tablespoons of this batter over the top of the pie filling. Sprinkle sugar over the batter.

Place in over and bake at 375 for 45 minutes.

Apple Crisp

Apple crisp can be made with *fresh apples or dried apple slices. This is a good way to rotate through your food storage as well!

I came up with this recipe this afternoon as a challenge from my Dad. This one's for you!

In a large bowl combine and let sit for 5 minutes:

7 cups dried apple slices
3 cups boiling water

Combine the following and mix for 2 minutes:

1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white flour
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp nutmeg

Now add 1/2 cup at a time:

1, 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats

Now dump the apple slices in your 9 x 13 baking dish. No need to grease the dish. Drain off any excess liquid. Now top with granola topping.

Bake uncovered at 375 for 30 minutes. Serve with vanilla ice cream...note to self: Buy vanilla ice cream!

*for fresh apples just use 8 green smooth-bottomed apples. cut them up. I like to "cube" them rather than slice them. No need to peel the skins. Leave 'em on!
