We have snow on the mountain.....

        I do think it is going to be a loooong winter, or at least it will look that way. It has been cold enough for the snow to stay all week and is accumulating!

        I finally picked the last of the apples, yeah!

      I just had to share an apple recipe I discovered in the Cabot Cheese newsletter.
If you haven't tried it, please do. It is divine.

Here is the link:  https://www.cabotcheese.coop/cheddar-apple-crisp

      The recipe calls for cooking this in a 10 inch iron skillet, and as I don't own
one that size I opted for this casserole. I can't see that it made any difference.
This recipe is addictive! I also added more lemon juice than they called for.

               Since the oven was hot I made a couple of loaves of bread, using the no knead method and some interesting flours from King Arthur Flours.

            The back story of this pie is that I thought I'd be very clever and cut out coyotes from the pie crust and then fit them back in the pie after all had been cooked.
             Well, as you can see I had a bit of a problem when the pie crust broke and some one in the house ate two (2!) of the baked coyotes!
              All I can say, it wasn't me. The pie was very good, I had eliminated  half of the sugar the recipe called for as our apples are very sweet.

Now I'm off to make applesauce without any sugar at  all.
