| | Here's a great apple crisp recipe I got from a wonderful inn in Vermont. I frequently adapt it to use cranberries . I keep cranberries in the freezer year-round and love to throw them in anything I make with apples. | | Put apples (and cranberries if you're using them) into a buttered baking dish. Sprinkle with salt . Mix sugar, flour and butter until crumbly (I do this in a food processor). Spread over the apples. Bake uncovered for 45 minutes in preheated 357 degree oven. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream . This smells great while it's baking, and it's delicious! It's one of our family favorites. | | Note: I usually give the cranberries a quick chopping in the food processor but it also works to use them whole. Depending on the quantity I need I feel free to add more apples and cranberries and increase the amounts of the other ingredients proportionately. | | /DESSERTS |
