October Baking
The New York Times Cookbook
As with any recipe, I recommend making it once or twice before you start making alterations. Get to know what it’s meant to be before you stray. For family allergy reasons, I don’t use walnuts anymore, but it’s nice to have a little crunch in the topping so I’ll use almonds.
I really like to use a few different types of apples. I mess with cinnamon quantities and other fruits as well. Being a mom who likes to make any treat more healthy, I’ll play with oats or whole grain flour, or even gluten free. Have fun with it, and enjoy our local bounty!
