I know I can search on internet but it doesn't compare to you'uns recipes.
I'm searching for old family recipe for Apple Pie, Applesauce, Apple Dumplings.... anything applelicious!
I still can't believe someone would name their kid Apple.
Summer is coming to an end soon, nothing like Fall harvest time!
Take care!!!!!

Before I start cooking, I look up apple types here at TOFA: http://www.almanac.com/content/best-apples-baking
There's nothing worse than using a soft sweet apple for eating in a baked dish as it comes out very wimpy.
I take a plain ol' slightly tart apple pie recipe -- no cream, etc. -- and alternate layers of apple and dried cherries.
The cherries plump in the baking, and adds color and a tart bite here and there.
Of course this is no substitute for apple pie with a melted slice of yellow cheddar cheese and cinnamon sauce!
Have you considered using apples in meat dishes? This is a Lamb and Apple Casserole recipe from 1969. Moroccan cuisine has many dishes that include both meat and fruit.
Hi Irenes,
Yes, apples are great in meat dishes. It's already out in the news that it's healthy to substitute applesauce for oil in recipes.
I love apple in the 15 Bean and Ham "Soup" (really ends up being a Stew in consistency), it adds just a little sweet to offset the beans. And I use less stewed tomato. Allspice adds a similar flavor as well.
I enjoy Moroccan dishes and will look up yours listed.
THANK YOU! :)
