I really don't know what possessed me. I have not been creative in the kitchen for y-e-a-r-s!
But after Blogathon Bash 2 in January, I started planning out a month's blog posts around a theme. February's theme was, of course, LOVE. And for some reason, in today's little slot I wrote "Love Apples". Originally I had envisioned a baked apple kind of dessert using sliced apples cut into little heart shapes with a cookie cutter.
Anyway, the above picture shows the result. Not too bad for a culinary newbie, if I do say so myself. Of course, it was dead easy. Frozen pie crust, 2 cans of apple pie filling, and apple slices cut into heart shapes with 2 different sized cookie cutters. Little crust cut-outs would word just as well. (Just remember, the kitchen is basically an undiscovered country for me.)
And, of course, it was nice to have to threaten the kids to LEAVE IT ALONE until I could get a picture of it.
The hearts are so cute...what a great idea!
ReplyDeleteThat's CUTE! I've also seen individual sized fruit pies, but you'd have to have the tins I guess. Those would be cute for Valentine's Day dessert with your recipe!
ReplyDeleteWOW! AWESOME! I AM GOING TO MAKE A VALENTINE PIE THANKS FOR THE IDEA.
ReplyDeleteThat is what I do with my Apple Pies LuAnn, with different shapes cut out on top; will be making apple pie tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteLooks great LuAnn!
ReplyDeleteThat you had to threaten them shows it must have been good. It does not look like it was made by a newbie at all. Well done!
Have a super blessed day!
Love
Thanks, Ugochi. It wasn't nearly as terrible an experience as I thought it might be! *LOL*
ReplyDeleteI was worried, Cindy, because it said top the thing with a sheet or a lattice of dough, and I didn't have any more! Nice to know it works with fruit too!
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome, Deanna! Glad to have you "on the porch"! :O)
ReplyDeleteThat's true, J, I've seen recipes for like "pie in a cup", that would work well with a dessert like this.
ReplyDeleteThat looks delicious! Thanks so much for your kind comment on my tulips and transfer ware post!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Courtney, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you've decorated that apple pie! Thanks so much for your lovely comment and joining in my blog. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome, Treat, and the same to you! It's great to have you visit my back porch! :O)
