Apple Pie and KCC

April 21st, 2010 by

apple pie
Want a piece of apple pie? Use this pie crust, take four granny smith apples, peel ‘em, slice ‘em and toss sugar and cinnamon all over them. Put the apples in the pre-baked crust, cover with additional crust dough (throw some oatmeal in the top crust), and bake for about 50-60 minutes in a 350° oven.

Want more recipes? I will be hosting the Kosher Cooking Carnival on May 16, so be sure to visit on that day. If you are a blogging cook or a cooking blogger and have a kosher recipe to share, please submit the post. Kosher Cooking Carnival is a blog carnival about kosher food, halachot (laws), customs, reviews of restaurants and cookbooks. If you want to host a KCC or for more information, visit Batya.

Like food photos? I have fresh slaw for Thursday Challenge, to be posted some time after 8 pm Eastern Time this evening.

    With apples, pears or plums you can beat 2 eggs with sugar and ground almonds and pour it over the fruit before baking. One may add dairy or parve cream to the mixture.

    I’ll definitely remember to send some recipes. I made bread today, wrote the post but didn’t take a photo. I might post it tomorrow though, with a photo which features a French baker.

      Thanks for the additional pie tips. I’ve read that it is an American tradition to include cheese (probably cheddar or some sharp cheese) under the apples. I assume also that the 18th C. Americans used lard to make their crusts.

      I once had an apple pie with hard cheese, and it was delicious.
