APPLE GRANOLA CRISP

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven 350 degrees and peel and core apples then slice into slices. Put into a stainless steel bowl.
• 2. Mix in a bowl white sugar and 1 tbsp. flour and cinnamon together.
• 3. Now add the granola and mix. Then add the water and mix again to get the granola wet so it can start absorbing the liquid.
• 4. Add the granola mixture to the apples and mix thoroughly. Put into a 1 1/2 qt casserole dish.
• 5. In another bowl Mix flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and melted butter. Use your hand and mix it together to make a crumble topping that falls apart. **Note: You will need to add additional tbsps. of flour if it is not falling apart and is not crumbly. I had to add 3 more tablespoons of flour when making this recipe.***
• 6. Sprinkle the mixture over the apple-granola mixture. Cover the entire area.
• 7. Bake at 350 degrees. For 45 min or until desired tenderness.
• 8. Tips: When using granola that contains nuts pick out the nuts and chop or mince them then add to the mixture. Mine contained Almonds and Walnuts. It all depends on how crunchy you want your apple granola crisp. I wanted a soft granola apple crisp so I also made the recipe different than a traditional crisp by adding the oats to the apples so they would soften up during cooking.
• 9. Serve by itself or with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy! After making this I was impressed how the granola came out it was tender not hard or soggy. Since I like granola so much I am going to increase the amount to 1 cup. Plus some water. *Note there are different types of baked granola. I used crispy baked and that is a hard granola. There is also a soft baked granola and it is soft when you squeeze it in the bag. If I were to use the soft baked granola I would add it to the crumbled topping mixture and top the apples with that mixture when making the dessert.

NEW ORLEANS-STYLE PRALINES

Steps:

• Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper (important to have these ready because you'll have to work fast when they're done).
• In a large saucepan, simmer cream, sugar, corn syrup and orange zest slowly over low heat, until reduced (watch carefully for boil over).
• Stir continuously as soon as the mixture starts to stick to the bottom of the pan(the mixture will become thicker and turn light brown as is reduces and the sugar carmelizes).
• Stir in pecans when the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (240 degrees), and continue to stir until the mixture starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
• Test by dropping a quarter size amount onto the lined baking sheet, and if it holds a nice rounded top (instead of running out flat), and if it is dull looking (rather than oily/shiny)it is ready (approximately 248 degrees).
• Use two dessert spoons to spoon out the pralines onto the baking sheets (one to dip, and one to scrape off) - they're hot, be careful!
• Depending on the humidity, temperature, and luck - they may be ready in about 30 minutes, but don't worry - it could take up to a day or two.
• Store in an airtight container up to a week.
