Apple Dapple

This year, our Gravenstein apple tree out-did itself!  We have made gallons and gallons and gallons of absolutely delicious applesauce that is now nestled in the freezer for a long winter's nap as well in the fridge.  (I have eaten a LARGE amount....just can't help myself)


We spent one afternoon making and canning 19 quarts of apple pie filling.  Was a first for us.  While it wasn't real hard, there were several steps involved.   
 

I also made 3 apple dapple cakes (2 in bundt pans and 1 in muffin cups).  I LOVE the chunks of apple in every bite!  I also altered the ones I made into muffins, using all whole wheat flour instead of white and I REALLY like them!!!!


Today I made apple cinnamon rolls and an apple pastry braid, neither of which I took pics of.  Out of them all, I still love the applesauce best!  :)  YUM!!!!

It all looks yummy, but a warm apple muffin with a bowl of cold applesauce... yummm.

Yum! Mom and I canned apple pie filling one year and I was hopeful we'd do it again this year since the apples were so wonderful. It just didn't happen...sure glad someone did :)
