Winter is a time for cooking and baking.
I love the warm scents of spices and baking and roasting goodness.
This was my Thanksgiving Apple Pie.
This was one of my best apple pies ever,
baked with a combination of Cortland and MacIntosh apples for a nearby orchard
and spiced just right.
I always add cinnamon, nutmeg and mace to my apple pies.
This year I found and added a teaspoon of this delicious blend of
Yuletide Cheer Spice from King Arthur Flour.
I looked for the product link and it is sold out for the season.
I think the cardamom, orange peel and coriander
lifted my pie to another level. Yum!
I buy my vanilla extract and some specialty flour from King Arthur
and added this in my cart when I had a coupon code.
Another baking yum was these wonderful popovers
served with whipped cream cheese and jam.
Mmmmmmm ... so good!
All you really need is a muffin tin and basic ingredients.
This is a good Popover Recipe @ Sugar Dish Me
I sometimes make them savory with grated cheese and herb seasoning like rasemary.
