It's Thanksgiving week and I'm sharing a recipe from Susan Branch's Autumn book. Last year I made a cranberry apple crisp from Cook's Country, but I tried this recipe and it's my new favorite.
I'm using my Lusterware teacup with some Ginger Cranberry Vanilla tea from Tea of Life. It's a wonderful tea for Fall and Winter.
I love this teapot for November, with it's harvest of fruits and vegetables.
Yield: 6
Cranberry Apple Crisp
This is my new favorite Fall dessert. The apples turn a pretty pink from the cranberries, and the topping is perfectly crunchy. I hope you try it! I love that there's no additional sugar in the fruit mixture.
ingredients:
4 large apples (I used Honey Crisp), peeled and sliced 1/2" thick
1 cup fresh cranberries (I used ones that I had frozen)
3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup oats
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/3 cup softened butter
instructions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Butter a square baking dish.
Place apple slices and cranberries in the pan.
Mix remaining ingredients well and sprinkle over the fruit.
Bake for 30 minutes. Serve hot with ice cream.
I took lunch to sweet granddaughter, Ella at her school.
I also took lunch to sweet Avery. Avery and Ella are sisters.
My daughter, Molly, invited me to grandson Riley's football banquet. We had a great time!
My son, Kevin, invited me to go with him to Harper's Thanksgiving program and feast at her school. I'm always grateful to be included in my family's activities.
Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American friends! May you have a beautiful day with family and friends.
I am sharing this with these lovely parties:
That sounds easy and yummy. I wrote down the recipe, I may try making it today.

ReplyDeleteKitty, I love seeing the smiling faces of your grands and family members! I love your pretty teapot and Lusterware teacup. I make a cranberry apple crisp that's a close cousin to yours but mine has some pecans and orange juice in it. It's a been a Thanksgiving tradition and on our table for about 20 years. Happy Thanksgiving. ♥
ReplyDeleteOh, I love cranberry apple crisp! Yours looks great. That is a very cute teapot and perfect especially for Thanksgiving week. You have a lovely family, Kitty, and isn't it wonderful to be included in their events? Love those smiling faces! Happy Thanksgiving, my dear friend! Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, my sweet friend! Your cranberry apple crisp looks and sounds amazing! I have never tried a crisp with cranberry and apple....I'm thinking I need to make one soon :)
ReplyDeleteThe pictures of you with your family touched my heart, Kitty. Such sweet faces that are shining with love. Wishing you and yours a blessed Thanksgiving. Hugs!
So great to see you with your grandchildren at their school events! They will always remember you attending them.
ReplyDeleteI must try your crisp because the recipe I have uses way too much sugar! Mine doesn't include apples. What a nice addition.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. (I'm back from a blogging break and I'm enjoying reconnecting through posts.)
The cranberry apple crisp sounds so good. I love the photos of you with your children and grandchildren.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a Happy Thanksgiving.
I am making your corn pudding casserole instead of a casserole I'm doing it into muffins this year. :)
Thanks for sharing this at C&C with J&J.

How sweet are the pilgrim couple standing there. You know what, Kitty, I would love to take a stroll through your home and look at all the pretty china in your collection. You must have dressers overspilling with china pretties. Each Monday I visit there is always a different pretty to see. Enjoy a most wonderful Thanksgiving celebration with your loved ones, lovely Kitty♥
