Spicy Apple Salsa

I was a little bummed that this month’s Tigress Can Jam theme wasn’t apples, since I’ve been canning them like crazy – namely my apple maple butter, which is my dad’s personal favorite. Alas, the theme was chili peppers, although any fruit of the plant family capsicum was eligible for use in our recipes. I [...]

Caramel-Apple Pie

In the spirit of all the apple picking we did a few weeks ago with friends and the baking session that ensued afterward (for the girls, anyway), we made several apple pies.

Apple Strudel

This is my last installment of What To Do With All That Leftover Puff Pastry. Promise. Because even though I’ve discovered that I really enjoy making (and eating) puff pastry, it’s definitely one of those “once in a while” kind of treats. There’s really nothing fancy about this strudel; it’s a very basic one that [...]
