More food......

Ok, so I had one reasonably relevant post and now I am back to food. Good food too.

Apple Cranberry Crisp. I found this recipe at the home of the High Desert Diva. It is a nice place to look around.
Here is the recipe,

4 cups Granny Smith apples, sliced & tossed with lemon (to prevent browning)
1 cup fresh cranberries
3 Tablespoons flour
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 Tablespoon honey
1/8 teaspoon ginger
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup brown sugar packed
1/4 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 cup margarine
1/4 cup chopped almonds, pecans or walnuts
Preheat oven to 375F. Combine fruit, 3T flour, sugar, honey and ginger to make filling. Spread filling in baking dish. Combine oats, brown sugar, 1/4c flour and nutmeg. Cut in margarine until mixture resembles large crumbs. Stir in nuts. Sprinkle topping over filling. Bake for about 30 minutes or until fruit is tender and the topping is golden brown.

Now, my variations. I used butter instead of margarine. MY apples were about 1/4 dehydrated. Not because of any grand scheme but because they were the last of the apples I picked off my sister's tree and that is what happens to apples left sitting in a bag for a month and a half. I also did not add the nuts because I just prefer food without nuts.

This is the apple cranberry mix before the crust stuff is put on. It looks good enough to just eat by itself.



And here is a serving with vanilla ice cream right before consumption. It is very good.
