did i
mention there were also apples at the pumpkin patch? there were. on monday night
i chopped up an apple, split the pieces between 2 ramekins, sprinkled some
brown sugar and butter on the top and then: instant apple crisp. last night, i wanted
more. despite a sagging shelf full of wonderful cookbooks and access to
millions of internet recipes, I decided to wing it.
i think i'm
going to try this approach to cooking more often. it was so rewarding to have a
delicious apple crisp that was entirely my own creation. i can’t really
remember amounts or steps followed but i know i used three apples, butter, cinnamon,
brown sugar, dried cranberries, honey, a spoonful of apple cider (turned out to
be unnecessary*), and some flour to hold the crisp together.
