All the Apples
By: badpoodle Date: October 30, 2021, 8:47 am
---------------------------------------------------------
I think I have at least 12 pounds of apples that have been
sitting in ziploc bags in our extra fridge since we went apple
picking. Today is the day! These apples are being turned into
food.
I'm trying these healthy muffins, hoping the kids will eat
them for breakfast this week:

And I'm making and freezing a vegan apple crisp for
Thanksgiving. I'm either going to use this recipe:

or take my favorite
apple crisp recipe and just sub vegan butter:

I will still have apples leftover. What are you favorite apple
recipes??

I vote for apple fritters! I don't have a recipe, just saw
some when I was looking for the muffins that I have made before
which don't fall under the heading of "healthy" but do fall
under the heading of "delicious"
Also in the category of making something healthy unhealthy, a
restaurant I used to get delivery from would make fried apple
sticks. Cut apples into sticks, flour breading, fry until crispy
outside and mushy inside. I don't think they even did a
sugar coating, the apples were sweet enough themselves, but you
might add some spices as a coating before flouring, or into the
flour...
And my mom used to just make applesauce. Homemade applesauce is
awesome.
Also in the desserts category - found this one in a restaurant
in Colorado. Cut apples into slices, toss with cinnamon and
sugar, sauté in butter until soft, serve with a Creme Anglaise
sauce. Soooooo good.

I love a basic, rustic Apple Galette. Easy and fast to make,
and the apples really shine. You can whip up a fast crust, in a
pinch use pre-made crust, but there's none of the
crimping/lattice work/blind baking that makes pie a bit time
consuming. This is practically "roll and go". This recipe
gives a really fast pie crust recipe too.

N.B. I skip the apricot glaze mentioned as a finishing touch.
The galette tastes more pure or something without it.

And I just remembered Baked Apples!
In the category of a healthy dessert - core an apple but leave
the base intact. Toss raisins with sugar to coat. Stuff cored
apple with raisins. Bake @ 350 or 375 until apples are soft (the
way you check a baked potato soft). Serve whole. Not really
fingerfood, we used at least a knife to cut them into pieces,
and *usually* a fork to eat, scooping apple with some raisins on
to your fork.

I should have added this in the original post. These are some
fairly odd varieties of apples because we picked what was
available at the orchard we went to. They are not all "snacking
apples" and ever since I tried to make a big batch of cider last
year and had to dump all of it because it tasted terrible,
I'm gunshy of anything that doesn't transform the apple.
Now I would buy a store honeycrisp apple and do this recipe any
time. In fact, I may make these for the kids this week and see
what they think. No raisins though :)

Fritters sound delicious - do you have to have a deep fryer?
I did make some applesauce yesterday and it turned out really
well!

No, for the kind I'm thinking of you just need a frying pan that
can hold up to a 1/2" of oil, and probably less. Think more like
pancake-style corn fritters. Although I did just breeze through
some recipes to double check myself and found one using an
air-fryer, and one that uses a dutch oven as a stand-in deep
fryer.

Baked apples are among my favorite foods. Raisins are
sacrilegious! Stuff a bit of butter, brown sugar, and your apple
related spices of choice in the core. Okay, less healthy than
raisins, but raisins are gross.
Top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if you have either.
No need if you don't.

I love raisins! And you're dissing my mom's cooking here!
