Three-day weekends are good for cooking. So far I've made applesauce this weekend, and overnight apple oatmeal.
The applesauce was my standard fare. Recipe courtesy of The Joy of Cooking, aka "The Bible." We've been using this recipe for years, and the only difference this year was using a food processor instead of a food mill. What ease!
the overnight apple oatmeal is a thing to behold! One must put it together kind of late in the evening, in order for it to be ready at breakfast. I peeled and diced 4 apples earlier, and sprinkled them wit vitamin C powder so they didn't turn brown. (you can find this with the canning supplies.) You layer the ingredients and then the recipe warns you, DO NOT STIR. I was skeptical but obeyed its command. And this morning I was rewarded for my patience with the scent of apple-goodness when I staggered into the kitchen to make coffee. (I'm kind of a mess in the morning." This was extremely tasty. And luckily it makes a lot, so leftovers for the week! The only critique tat Brian had is that it's heavy on the cinnamon. I love cinnamon though, but maybe next time I'll adjust it a little.
Next up...apple hand pies. And then I still have more apples, so who knows.
