An apple is a sweet, edible fruit produced by an apple tree
An apple is a sweet, edible fruit produced by an apple tree (Malus domestica). Apple trees are cultivated worldwide and are the most widely grown species in the genus Malus. The tree originated in Central Asia, where its wild ancestor, Malus sieversii, is still found today. Apples have been grown for thousands of years in Asia and Europe and were brought to North America by European colonists. There are more than 7,500 known cultivars of apples, resulting in a range of desired characteristics. Different cultivars are bred for various tastes and use, including cooking, eating raw and cider production.

So the challenge to make a sweet dish from onions got me thinking. First I was going to make an apple and onion bread pudding as bread puddings can be sweet or savoury, but I wanted to be more creative. My mum used to make strawberry shortcake so I thought I would try this:

When I made this recipe, I decided to squeeze out the moisture from the shredded apples. This allowed me to cram 2 large Granny Smith apples and 1 large Gala apple into these cupcakes. The result was denser than I expected. It could also be that blending in the shredded apples - rather than...
I made this for guests last night and it was delicious. I've not made a cobbler (sweet or savoury) since I left my parents' home over 30 years ago.I find gluten free pastry really difficult so usually make a fruit crumble but mentions of cobbler on Cookingbites made me give this a go...

The recipe started out as this one but I used red onions, a mix of...

If you are vegetarian or vegan then you will want to know that the wax used to cover the apples is often made from beetle mucus (which the creatures use to cover and protect their eggs). Many apples (and other fruits) in UK supermarkets are waxed to help protect and preserve them. The Sun...
We have an apple orchard on our estate so this time of year the residents can pick as many apples as they want. We went over yesterday and now have a tub full of lovely apples and need inspiration what I can do with them - no idea of the varieties except they seem to be cookers rather than...
