Crumbly Apple Pie by Robyn Savoie

When it comes to apple pie, I love mixing up the apple variety in the filling. I use Cortland and Honeycrisp apples. Cortland's will give the filling and applesauce like smoothness. While the Honeycrisp will remain firm when cooked. Finally a buttery brown sugar topping is a fabulous variation on this classic American apple…

My Homemade Apple Butter with Apple Schnapps by Robyn Savoie

Two autumn standards, pumpkin and apple. I joined Schnapps Liquor with apple in this lovely spread. Apple Schnapps really adds a surprising element to this.

This cobbler is a little more figure friendly in that there is only one crust as opposed to the traditional two.

Anyone Can Pickle! Cherries, Sweet, Spicy and Fast! by kathy gori

I've always been interested in pickles, preserving and canning. I guess it's my inner squirrel speaking.
