Last Saturday we all had a Harvesting good time picking a Bushel of Apples and a Bushel of Pears. The weather was perfect and so was every ones mood! We really are an Agri-tainment loving family. Now that was the fun part.
Moms fun…..
I’ve got thru Half a bushel of Apples to freeze in slices for pies, Tomorrow will use up another couple dozen apples for the apple butter to be canned. I haven’t made apple butter before so we’ll see…
We’re on our way to having lots of pre-peeled, pre- sliced frozen apples and pears for pies and cobblers.
So convenient to have on hand. And easy to do. Wash, peel, core slice and pop into a freezer bag. I find that a quart bag full is just right for a nine inch pie pan or an 8x8 crumble. you could get all fancy and dip them in a little lemon juice mixture but since they will be baked anyways I usually don’t bother. Besides I still have all this to put away…
