Apples

Last week we went to a friend's house for Apple Day...P has a giant apple tree in her yard, and we picked tons of apples, then diced and sliced them into yummy oatmeal-topped crumbles. This weekend we had our own apple day, borrowing M's apple corer/slicer, and processed the rest of our apples we'd brought home:



That little contraption is the coolest tool ever! The girls must have processed 30 apples BY THEMSELVES!

Here's what we made:

Put a bunch of those nicely sliced apples in a baking pan
Toss with lots of cinnamon and a dash of salt
Add ~1/3 cup of water

Mix together and put on top:
Oatmeal, mostly processed into flour
More oats, whole
Almond flour (ground almonds)
~1/2 cup brown sugar
Palm oil shortening and/or butter - enough to make the oats all sticky/clumpy

Bake at 350 for about 40 minutes.

I LOVE my apple peeler/corer/slicer. Unfortunately it's in storage right now. :( Apples pies aren't nearly as much fun to make without it.

I'm glad you guys had such a good time making yummy stuff. :)
