We had a nice quiet Saturday. It rained most of the day so it was perfect for an indoor project. Here’s what we made. I had to reconstruct the roof since it broke, but it still turned out good. One of these years I’ll get it too look like the picture on the box, LOL!
I want to send a quick message to the many that I met in Indianapolis. I got some names, some contacts and handed out a little information myself. I feel that I am getting better at communicated with new people but struggle when I have to run after my son. I’m sorry that I don’t remember everyone’s name, I tried to remember later and write it down. I do hope that you all travel over to my blog and might drop a little message. I enjoyed talking to everyone and look forward to opportunities in the future.
Okay, I’m posting an apple recipe I got from my father-in-law, the king of desserts. This uses a small amount of apples, so if you have a lot like I do, make applesauce.
Apple Bars (a cake)
Mix (don’t beat, just stir till smooth)
1 ¾ c. sugar
1 c. salad oil (I use canola oil)
3 eggs
½ tsp. salt
2 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon (I like to use 2 tsp)
1 tsp vanilla
4 large-6small apples; peeled, cored and sliced
Combine all ingredients except apples and stir till smooth.
Then stir in your apples. Pour batter into a greased 9”x13” pan.
Bake at 350oF about 50 minutes. Check with toothpick for doneness. Cut when cooled into bars.
Optional: dust cooled cake with powdered sugar and serve
With whipped cream.
If anyone makes this, let me know how you liked it. Happy baking!
