HARVEST SEASON = APPLES & BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP and APPLE PIE :)
OH MY. Did you know you could combine apples, butternut squash, garlic cloves, onions into a mouthwatering soup? I didn't until Saturday.
I took:
1 medium sized butternut squash
3 cortland apples
3 garlic cloves
2 onions
peeled and quarted all above (except garlic I left whole)
threw them in a roasting pan drizzled in oil with some salt and roasted at 350 for 45 minutes. i took them out and let it cool then i put them in the food processor and pureeed.
poured the puree into a saucepan, added water so it wasnt very thick (maybe 2 cups), 2 tsps of veggie better than boullion, nutmeg, cinnamon, pepper and heated until hot.
YUM
APPLE PIE - I made two, one as a house warming gift and one for mike and i
shortcrust pastry
2 1/2 c flour (i used whole wheat)
2 sticks of butter
chop butter into cubes (it must be cold!) and mix with flour in a bowl. Use your fingers to break up the butter and flour until it is a breadcrumb consistency.
add tablespoons of ice cold water one at a time until the mixture sticks together. make a ball, wrap in saran wrap and place in fridge for 30 mins
chop a bunch of apples, mix with sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg and drizzle with melted butter.
take ball of dough out of fridge, cut in half and roll into 2 circles. place into pie tin. usually its good to take wax paper and dried beans to place over the pastry so it does not bubble and slip down the sides of the pan while you parbake it. if i dont have those, i take tin foil and cover the sides to the top of the pie dish and use a fork to stab the bottom of the crust. bake at 450 for 15 mins. take out, fill with apples, top off with second circle.
bake at 350 for 45 mins. dont forget to put a pan under the pie incase it bubbles!
enjoy!
