Answer 1

1. apple bread:
Apple Bread
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1 tablespoon buttermilk
2 cups sifted Self-Rising Flour
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 1/2 cups chopped peeled tart apples
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease bottom of 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan; set aside. Cream 1 cup sugar, shortening, and vanilla with electric mixer in mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs and buttermilk; blend well. Add flour; blend well. Stir in lemon peel and apples. Pour into prepared pan. Combine 1 tablespoon sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over batter. Bake 1 hour, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Gently loosen sides of loaf. Turn out onto wire rack to cool completely.

2. apple nut bars:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs, well beaten
1/4 cup melted margarine
1/3 cup raisins
1 cup pecans, chopped
1 cup finely chopped apples
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Place the batter in a greased 9" x 13" baking pan. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until the edges are golden. Remove from oven and cut into bars while still warm, not hot. Note: Before serving, you might want to roll the bars in confectioner's sugar or spread with a cream cheese frosting. Maybe serve them with whipped topping as a dip or serve plain as a great snack cookie.

3. Apple Deluxe Cake:
2 eggs
1 cup oil
2 cups sugar
1 cup chopped dates
6 ounces butterscotch chips
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
3 1/2 cups shredded apples
Combine eggs, oil and sugar in large bowl; mix well. Coat dates and butterscotch chips with a small amount of flour. Stir into egg mixture. Add remaining flour, salt, soda, cinnamon, vanilla, coconut, pecans and apples, mixing well after each addition. Spoon into greased 9x 13-inch cake pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Garnish with whipped topping. Yield 12 servings.

4.Baked Cinnamon Apples:
4 baking apples
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
4 teaspoons butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Remove core from apples. Peel upper half of apple or 1-inch strip from middle to prevent splitting. Place upright in baking dish. Place 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon butter and 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon in center of each apple. Pour water into baking dish to 1/4-inch depth. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes or until tender when pierced with fork, basting several times. May omit water and microwave for 6 to 8 minutes. Rome Beauty, Golden Delicious and Greening are good baking apples to use. May substitute grenadine syrup for brown sugar or omit cinnamon and place 1 tablespoon granola, 2 teaspoons brown sugar and 1 teaspoon butter in each apple. Yield: 4 servings.

5. Grandmom's Apple Pie:
5 to 6 cooking apples - Rome Apples a good choice

Add half of sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and 1 tablespoon corn starch. Repeat layering of apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cornstarch. Apples will pile high in pie crust. Dot with butter. Top apples with second crust. Seal crust. Cut vents in top. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until done. Yield: 8 servings.

Answer 2

I just made some really good apple crisp, here's the recipe:

3 cups apples
1 Tbsp. flour
Cinnamon to taste (I used a little over half a teaspoon)
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 tsp. salt

Toss apples in flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt and place in greased 9 by 9 baking dish.

3/4 cup quick oatmeal
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 tsp. baking powder
3/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp. soda
1/3 cup melted butter

Combine ingredients and cover apples with topping. Bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees or until apples are tender. Enjoy!

These recipe turned out really good and it has oats, so it's healthier than regular apple crisp.
