We were inundated with apples this fall. I was tempted with the wonderful varieties we had in my supermarket and bought home a huge bushel. However that turned out to be the height of apple picking season. Annika came home with a few after being on her farm visit from school and then my cousins dropped off a bagful from their visit.
My challenge that weekend was to turn all of those apples into something yummy before they went bad. And if that were not enough of a challenge, – I laid down the following rules—nothing too sweet. Which means no pies or tarts or cakes or jams or jellies.
This is what I did :
Apple Risotto
Ham, Cheese, And Apple Panini Recipe
Cinnamon Apple Fritters
Ajo Blanco (Chilled Apple Soup)
Apple Crostada
Apple Sausage Casserole
Apple Maple Pancakes
Apple Leek And Cheese Pull Apart Bread
Apple Cheddar Fondue
Apple Fennel Slaw
Apple & Carrot Juice
My favorites of the lot were the Ajo blanco, the fondue and the pull apart bread!
