New Traditions

The new and upcoming trend is to break away from tradition and have a new Love ...for mini desserts!

A dessert table can be the perfect compliment to your cake and showcase some of your favorite indulgences.

Recipe of the Month- Baked Apple Pie

Homemade Apple of My Eye Pie

-Makes one 9in pie.      -Prep 30min  -Cook 1 hour

Ingredients:             

                                                                                            

• 1 Double crust pie pastry ( Store bought or homemade)
• 8 Apples, peeled cored and sliced ( I use Granny Smith Apples)
• 1/2 cup salted butter
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 3 Tablespoons all purpose flour
• 1 Teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/3 Teaspoon nutmeg

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

Prep apples- peel core and slice apples- to keep them from browning after slicing you can place them  in a bowl of cold water.

Melt butter in a sauce pan. Stir in flour to form a paste. Add white sugar, brown sugar and water; bring to a boil. Reduce temperature, and simmer 5 minutes. Keep mixture on warm until you are ready to pour it over your apples!

While your sauce is thickening on the stovetop, place the bottom crust in your pan. Remove your apples from the water and toss them with cinnamon and nutmeg. Fill your pie shell with apples slightly mounded.  Cover with a lattice crust.

Gently pour the  warm sugar and butter liquid over the crust. Pour slowly so that it does not run off. Blush the top of the pie with a pastry brush to even. ( Makes a crisp caramelized pastry top!)

Bake 15 minutes at 425 degrees
Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees and continue baking for 35 to 45 minutes.

Serve warm and Enjoy with the ones you love! ( maybe with  a side of Vanilla ice-cream mmmm!)
