What a surprising combination! Unfortunately, the recipe didn’t give a baking temperature, but the idea is intriguing enough that I am willing to experiment! LOL

I went on a recipe hunt online a few weeks ago. I don’t remember exactly what prompted it, but once I got started, I just couldn’t stop!

I ended up with wonderfully unique Apple Pie recipes that I’ll be showcasing here thru November… I am choosing to ignore the significance of Pumpkin Pie in American Cuisine at this time of year. LOL

I also have some apple recipes that aren’t pies but they were just too cool to ignore.

I hope you’ll join me!
