Fall means family get-together! Fall means family dinners and Fall means lots of yummy Apple Pies!
Everyone probably has their favorite recipe too!
My favorite apple pie recipe includes fresh apples, cranberries, brown sugar, spices and pecans! This is such a earthy yummy pie and makes everyone excited when they get a chance to eat it. It creates great memories as the house fills with the wonderful smell of the spices and apples cooking in the oven.
Fall is wonderful for apple pie baking too because some of the best apples for baking are on the market. You might even want to pick your own apples off the tree for baking – see this blog about Apple Picking a Digital Scrapbooking Opportunity!
Many bakers believe that a tart apple makes one of the best for baking.
Something tart, yet sweet and firm works very well in most apple recipes. My very favorite Fall apple for both eating and baking is the Jonathan Apple – both tart and sweet, middle of the road on firm and by far is a great hit in my apple pies! Usually the Jonathan apple only comes out in the Fall too – so you have to really watch for it’s appearance at your local store or farmers market or you will miss getting this apple!
Make Family Memories from Baking Apple Pies!
Is your apple pie recipe from your grandmother, mother, friend or your own creation?
Wherever you have gotten your apple pie recipe or even if you are just starting out, it is a great idea to record the process by making a digital scrapbooking page.
This way you can share it with family and friends or keep it for you children so they can have the recipe too!
