  1. Perfect timing as always! I went apple picking yesterday and now have more apples than I really know what to do with. Hooray for new ideas!

    • The secret truth of apple recipes is that some of them also work well with pears. Pear pancakes! Pear skillet cake! (I’m guessing.) Etc.

  2. These all look amazing. I made the grilled cheese for dinner, only (in an extremely rare fit of culinary inspiration) I fried the apple slices in butter and cinnamon first, used gjetost (Norwegian caramelized goat cheese) for the cheese, and paired it with butternut squash soup for dipping.

    …It would have been divine, if I hadn’t burnt the bread. :(

    • can I ask how do you pronounce ‘gjetost’ ? Can you compare it any other cheese re: taste/texture?

      • I’m not actually sure how to pronounce it but I saw “gay toast” as a suggestion so I’m gonna go with that.

        Texture-wise, it’s very smooth and almost fudgy? Like a really soft cheddar. It’s also a dark caramel brown colour, which adds to the fudge impression. The taste is definitely goaty but with sweeter undertones than regular goat cheese. I wasn’t sure what to make of it at first, but it has grown on me.

  3. Apple cheddar muffins! Three of my favorite things made into one thing!!

    This is my first comment – hi, everyone :-)

  4. It’s almost a week since this was posted, but I have apple recipe knowledge I need to drop because my religion is food.

    Apple chips are your baking addition BFF
    Muffins. breads, rolls just envelope those chips in dat dough.

    There a very simple multi-serving traditional pancake way to do an apple pancake. (Not the baked in a pan one isn’t adorable and perfect for a lazy Sunday.)

    – Peel a granny smith apple
    – attack it with cheese grater
    – dump the gratings in your pancake batter
    – throughly stir them in with how ever much cinnamon and nutmeg you want
    – spoon batter on to your standard prepared pancake cooking thingy
    – closely monitor them cause they’re kinda thick and don’t bubble like regular pancakes.
