Picking Apples

[queenofmean]

My bath is full of them!

Was very entertaining - might take up juggling.

Some off to new homes soon and the rest a crumble is planned and I'm planning to adapt my spiced plum cake and make spiced apple instead.

[marval]

I love apple crumble, the cake sounds good too.

All sounds good. I made an apple cake yesterday and it is going fast!
You can make apple sauce!

[queenofmean]

I would make Apple Sauce but last time it just sat in the freezer - not big pork fans. Although I imagine it would go nicely on top of my morning yoghurt!

Lol Mamya - needs must though!

I've been looking for a reason to bake for ages!

Trifle tonight Crumble Tuesday me thinks.

I love apple sauce and have it with gammon chicken turkey and it's also very nice with cheese

[queenofmean]

Never thought about cheese! Good thinking Islay.

Not a huge chicken fan but I guess I could give it a whirl.

And whats nicer than a baked apple with custard.
, or just plain stewed apple with custard. Yummy.

[Georgiesmum]

I always used to serve my pork chops with cooked apple on the top

[queenofmean]

Oooh that sounds good!

I expected this thread to be about the picking of apples, not about the art of cooking them.

[Mamyalynne]

First get your ladder or a long stick - that sort of thing?

[Islay]

Well AOG it is in chatterbank so it could be about anything

[corylus]

I prefer luxury foam in my bath.

[queenofmean]

I did have to use my hockey stick to knock the high ones off!

[Patsy33]

The apple cake sounds lovely. Always intended to making one but never did. Anyone got a quick recipe? Be most grateful...

[TonyV]

How about making some wine / cider that's what I'm going to do with my excess

[queenofmean]

Patsy the one I use is quick to prep takes a while to bake.

Not done it with Apples but Plums - superb!

If I can find it I'll post it later on

[queenofmean]

I don't drink Tony :( neither does dad.

I'm taking some up to a neighbour who runs her own restaurant - she is going to make Chutney.

Flogged some to OH will give some to my Instructor as he loves Apple Pie and will give some to friends and family where I can.
