Nikita Hello! It's my week to pick our theme, and I chose apples. Why? Because it's still fall, and I'm a little over pumpkin after October and Thanksgiving. This December, I'm starting a 25 Days of Cookies challenge where I'll bake a new set of cookies each day. Today marks Day#5, so I merged the Saturday Bites and cookie challenges together to make these A-MAZING Apple Crisp Cookies with Maple Glaze. The hubs said this may be his new favorite cookie. Really? Has the Oatmeal Raisin Cookie been dethroned? They really are delicious with a chewy texture, crunch of the streusel topping, and balance of tart and sweet flavors with grated Granny Smiths baked throughout. I would easily call this a Fall cookie. Follow me on IG @haysnik86 to see other cookies during this challenge. Georgia
Cammy This week was to be "playing with apples." When I think of apples, I think of baking. I really didn't want to bake with apples this week so I decided to go on a healthier option. Then I decided that I wanted comfort food and also breakfast food. In the end I went with this delicious apple cranberry oatmeal made in the instant pot. I've never actually had oatmeal from steel cut oats before so this was also new territory for me. I'm thankful I have my instant pot. This recipe was easy and delicious, though not as healthy as the original. I had some heavy cream that I needed to use up so that was used instead of the nonfat milk. Does it count that I topped it with lowfat milk when I served it up? Jen My husband’s birthday was this week, so he got to pick something special he wanted for dinner! He chose “apple pork chops”, green beans, and roasted red potatoes. The meal turned out well. 😊 I’d make the apple pork chops recipe again, but maybe with extra apples the next time. Mandy What's not to love about apples? So, so many ways to prepare them and all are oh so delicious.
Until next week, Nikita, Georgia, Cammy, Jen and Mandy
