Happy Monday Farmgirls and I hope everyone has been having fun this month with our Apple Festival! Just a reminder that our Annual Farmgirl Apple Pie Sunday celebration is coming up this coming weekend on September 30!!
In the past Farmgirls have chosen Apple Crisp, Apple Cake, Apple Bread or many other ways that Apples can be enjoyed as a dessert. So, the possibilities are endless!!
I hope you will share your plans with us here all week so that there can be new ideas to inspire you!
Right now, I am vacillating between a traditional Apple Pie or Apple Crisp. I love them both!

My husband has requested apple pie "with that criss cross top thing" so it looks like I'm going with pie this year.

I am making apple/pear crisp. Our apple season ends early August. So I will use the last of our fresh apples in it. Can't wait sounds yummy.

Heather, I am laughing at how cute that expression is that your husband gave us!! Tell him, I agree that the criss cross top thing is a sign of deliciousness waiting to be dug into~~ LOL!!
Kelly, your idea of a Perry Crisp ( a name I have often seen where apples and pears join together in a recipe, sounds fantastic!

Hay there! I am making a few Apple Dumps. If the weather holds and the rain stops in time then I will make a few in the Dutch oven over the fire pit. It's soooooo good. Photos, please, everyone!! Hugs!

Ohhhh, these plans for Sunday's Apple Pie Festival Day are mouth watering! Daizy, I have never made apple dumplings on my Dutch oven over a fire pit, but that sounds like so much fun!! I bet the flavor is wonderful!! Plus it is so old timey which I just love!!
Yes, if anyone is able to share photos, please do! But if not, please still share your final choice and how it turned out. Inquiring Farmgirl minds love to know!!!

Winnie, I had the most AMAZING apple cake in Norway. We went to an apple farm and they served us their traditional apple cake and homemade whip cream. It was divine. If I could have purchased an entire cake I would have. So this year I think I will attempt an apple cake or apple bread. Haven't made an official decision yet. My father in law will be giving me some of his apples off his tree this year. I'm getting excited!

Out here in Idaho, we're getting ready for Apple Pie Sunday. So far, we've picked apples from our orchard (Granny Smith, Macintosh, and one I can't remember the name of), so Ashley can make a loaf of wild bread stuffed with apples in the center and Meg can make several apple pies. This year, since we have our own cheese factory (cows), we're going to try Winnie's preferred way to eat pie--with cheddar cheese, but in our case, it'll be Scamorza cheese, because Ashley made a batch on Thursday.
I'll post photos of the end result. The weather this weekend is perfect!!!

Will do all my measuring of ingredients for my apple pie with no-roll crust today. Will hydrate dried apples overnight with apple mint; cinnamon stick; and 4 whole cloves. Instead of the 1 Tbsp milk I will us apple brandy.

I made my apple pie yesterday. It was delicious with a cup of hot apple cider. Love autumn and all its bounty!

Love your quote Dawn. And of course yours, Grace, such a wonderful old saying. Who hasn't heard those endearing words.
And here's the apple of my tummy--Ashley's breakfast wild-bread braided loaf, stuffed with apples.
More apple tummy yummies coming later today. Thank you Winnie for inventing such a wonderful celebration. It's especially special for us because Autumn is my daughter's favorite season. "The apple of my eye" was born the first of Oct., 39 years ago. So, celebrating this particular weekend by honoring apples (and the birth of Meg) is perfect.

Good Morning everyone and Happy Farmgirl Apple Pie Sunday! Wow, Ashley, your Apple Bread looks quite delicious and of course photo perfect as well. I bet it was delicious this morning with hot coffee or tea too! MaryJane , would you please enjoy a slice for me?
Love that photo of the farm apples! What a glorious sight and it makes my mouth water thinking about biting into a big crunchy red orb!
Dawn, your celebration of fresh apple pie with cider sounds just Farmgirl perfect! What an awesome start to our annual celebration of Apple Pie Sunday here at MJF.
Sara, the ingredients to your apple pie sound so yummy! With the addition of your Farmgirl Jubilee Apple Mint herb, this recipe is carrying forward all things celebrated by many of us here at the Farm from May to September. I love that thread of continuity!
Hehehe, Grace, that snuggle addition with your “Apple of my eye”, sweetie is another way to celebrate today too!
A Happy early Birthday to our beloved Farmgirl Meg too. What a perfect way to kick off an upcoming special birthday. Who doesn’t love delicious sweets made with honest homegrown harvest from ones farm? Have a very happy birthday, Megan, and many many more!
MaryJane, yes please let me know how you enjoy using a good cheese on your pie instead of other topping options. What kind of flavor does Scarmoza cheese offer? And did my sweetest Daisy’s milk contribute? Hehe, instead of Alpine grass, my girl gets rich Palouse grass which I am sure is equally perfect for rich grass nutrition.
I am making Biscuit Apple Pie from MaryJane’s Cast Iron Cookbook . Yesterday I made my apple mixture using the apple pie filling recipe given. I chose tart Macintosh apples. It turned out delicious and is now ready to be the topping to my biscuit base. I can’t wait to try this out! I also got a very good aged cheddar cheese from Vermont to grate on top of my serving . I will post a photo later to show the results. It is 90+ again today but it is not going to dampen my enthusiasm for this Fall celebration at our Farm!
Happy celebrating Farmgirls however you choose! I would love to hear your comments and any possible photos of what you are doing. The perfect part of celebrating together is hearing from each of you.
Aprons ON a and let the apples fill this country with those cinnamon scents from coast to coast! What a glorious way to celebrate this season loved by so many of us here at MJF!,

Everyone's apple creations sound so yummy.
I donned my apple pie Sunday apron at 5a.m. and made my pie. Must say the no roll crust is a hit with me. I used walnut oil in the crust to add to the flavors. I think walnuts and apples are a good mix.
Yes Winnie using my Jubilee apple mint added a little more "spice" to making the pie.
An added bonus to using dried apples was the tea made from hydrating the apples with apple mint, cinnamon stick, and whole cloves. I mixed a little of it in my Scottish Morning Tea. Have a pint of it in fridge to add to tea during the week. I'm trying to lose weight so I will either freeze most of the pie or better still my sisters will want some.

We are enjoying the Apple Crisp I made earlier today. The smell is as good as the taste.

My granddaughter, Lily June has strep. I had her Thursday with fevers up and down all day. I'm sick, I think mine is more Sinus and Cold I hope! I had plans to bake today. I'm going to post mine late. I Found so many great recipes in this magazine from Linda- Quiltee, a gift from her for my Sept 2018, Fgotm! I am going to do the Carmel Apple Bundt cake. I will post my picture late this week! Happy Baking !! Thanks Winnie! for hosting!!

Oh Connie, I am so sorry to hear that you are sick today!! Hopefully, it isn't strep but if it is, an antibiotic will get it on the run within about 24 hours. Please take care! The Apple magazine from Linda looks wonderful! I bet it has a lot of delicious ways to use apples too!!
Denise, I know that Apple Crisp is delicious! You just can't go wrong with that choice any day of the year!!
Dawn, your apple pie is gorgeous!! Yum!
Sara, how neat it is that your apple mint gave your morning tea a new twist and was plentiful enough to make up a pitcher for ice tea later on. I bet your pie was delicious too and freezing some for later will be just the treat when you want a little something delicious in the future.
I will be making my biscuit apple pie for dinner time so I haven't baked it yet, but it won't be long!!
Thanks everyone for sharing!! I never tire of hearing about how others enjoy apples, apple stories, and of course trying new varieties of apples!

Haven't done anything apple today, too many chores, but I am DROOLING! And, I guess Winnie, being the ringleader of this event, you are the "Apple of Our Eyes!" |

I'm gonna make it! I ploughed down deep in my Farmgirl spirit and got a Carmel Apple Pound cake in the oven. I will post pictures! I think I'll get them in by midnight! It's 8:30 pm here in West Tennessee. I wanted so to be a part of Apple pie Sunday! Our Jones farm stand has granny Smith and Fuji. It's just 2 miles from me so I made it there before dark! Back to the kitchen I go!

I'm with you Connie. Our pies are still in the oven (first pies made by my grand girls--the going was slow). But now we all get a nice bedtime snack.

The girls did a fabulous job. Winnie, our Miss Daisy contributed the butter for the crust. Just look at the cream she gives us! (That's rosemary drying in the background.)
Yum!!!
And my piece with cheese all over it.
Good night all. Hang in there Connie. Apple dessert before bed? Yes!

Winnie I made it!! Mary Jane, your pies are beautiful! What fun to have your Grands for helpers! My Grand, Lily June loves to cook already at age 4! She will remind me if I forget her apron! Same here for us, great before bedtime snack! at 9:30 P.M we just had a piece of warm cake and our God-Son stopped by on his way home to Nashville, just in time to share a piece too! I packed him a piece to go for tomorrow. Farmgirl life happens, It stuck to the pan! That's my Great Aunt Mattie's tube pan, I have never had anything stick before! I use it a lot! I'm gonna havbe to bake a pie to redeem myself and while The farmstand has all those wonderful Apples! Got the Carmel icing dabbed on, looks so much better! My family said, they didn't notice it stuck because it tasted wonderful! It was good.

Finally today, I can post photos of the fantastic Biscuit Apple Pie!! It was not only easy to make, but equally delicious. I made a half recipe because there are just the two of us, but this recipe would easily make a double batch as well for a crowd.
MaryJane, I love seeing Daisy's delicious creamy milk! Wow, it certainly is rich!! The Farmerette Apple Pie makers look like they did a fantastic job because the photos of your pie told the story of homegrown goodness in every bite!
Yum, your cheese on your slice looks perfect. I have grated my cheese on the top of my serving so that it could easily melt. What was your verdict about cheese vs sweet topping? Inquiring minds want to know!!
Connie, your apple pound cake looks mouth watering good! I love that cute plate that it sits on as well! I am so glad you felt well enough, despite your sore throat, to bake the cake and enjoy the apple goodness. You know an apple a day keeps the doctor away so hopefully that apple cake also was the perfect "medicine" for a sore throat!! LOL!! Works for me to eat cake for getting well!!
Thanks to everyone for sharing their fun day and celebrating in our Annual Farmgirl Festival!! I love our celebration together and I hope all of you did too!!
FARMGIRL FRESH is Always BEST!
