apple fritters

So it is officially apple season!  Well, truth be told, we've been picking apples for over a month already due to the crazy warm weather we had all Spring and Summer.  Apple picking is a pretty sweet job, especially early in the morning when there's a bit of fog in the orchard, and everything is so peaceful.  I really can't complain!

pumpkin muffins

Hello Fall!!  It might just be my favorite season of all, and I'm so glad it's here!

I've already been busy baking up a storm with apples and pumpkins, and have a few squash recipes that I'd like to try in the next few weeks as well.  Living on an apple/pumpkin/squash/corn/potato/(and more!) farm is pretty darn swell during this time of year.  We're busy harvesting everything right now, and there is an abundance of beautiful things at my disposal!

There's so much going on in this pie, from the flaky pie crust, to the beautifully blue filling, and delicious crumb topping.  So many textures!  And you also don't have to fuss with getting a top crust on perfectly.  (Although if you're in the mood for something fancy, you can follow this recipe to make a lattice crust for the top!
