Apples, Apples, Everywhere

So I may have gone a little overboard with the apples. I was invited to someone's house to pick apples and took home three full grocery bags worth. My neighbor brought over a bag and then my in-laws brought me a bag. Last week I ordered a case of mixed apples from our food co-op because I really want to taste a Shamrock Apple, and tonight I ordered a case of Gala apples from some 4H kids doing a fundraiser.
I have already made mini-wrapple pies (which you can see here), several apple crisps, apple brownies (which was more like apple cake to me), three pans of apple bars, and over a dozen jars of applesauce. With the applesauce I have made carrot muffins, zucchini bread, and low-fat brownies. And I have enough apples sliced and frozen in the freezer to make eight large apple crisps.
And I won't even get the two cases of apples until the 25th. So if you have any good apple recipes, please please send them to me!



Low-Fat Brownies

Ingredients:

- 1 cup baking cocoa
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup soft margarine
- 2 cups sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup apple sauce
- 2 tsps vanilla
- chocolate chips, if desired

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350.

2. Use 9x13 glass pan.

3. Mix all ingredients.
Sprinkle chocolate chips on top if desired.

4. Bake 35 minutes.

Okay, I know brownies are probably never really no-fat but these are so delicious and so easy! Plus the recipe calls for applesauce.
