I have too much. There, I've admitted it! So how do we handle this dilemma? Well, I give some of my stuff to YOU, of course! It's a win-win, really. You get some of my older (but still awesome!) product and I make some room on my shelves. For more product. Wait a minute...
Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. ;-)
Over the next few months (I am ashamed to tell you exactly how many of these kits there are...) I will be giving away kits of goodies. This month, for this Autumn-friendly September Kit, I want you to leave a comment and give me a recipe for your favorite apple dish. As I mentioned in the previous post we have an abundance of crisp apples and I live for this time of year just for the apple recipes alone. I will eat them ten ways from Sunday and not be tired of them.
The kit includes products from My Mind's Eye, Cosmo Cricket, Die Cuts With a View, Creative Imaginations, Daisy D's, Heidi Swapp and more.So copy and paste a favorite... or link me up to something you found online... just give me a reason to get in the kitchen by Friday!
One lucky winner will be drawn to win the kit!
**Please, I can only pay shipping to winners from the continental US!**

You're too sweet!
The link for the apple recipe didn't post the first time, so I'll try again! I made this for the first time on Saturday, and it disappeared quickly! It's really quite versatile, too :)

I love this apple cake, so moist and apple-y. Ive tried it with a ton of different types of apples and they are all good. I don't use the nuts though.
Mom’s Apple Cake
6 apples, Mom uses McIntosh apples
1 tablespoon cinnamon
5 tablespoons sugar
2 3/4 cups flour, sifted
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
4 eggs
1 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a tube pan. Peel, core and chop apples into chunks. Toss with cinnamon and sugar and set aside.
Stir together flour, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, orange juice, sugar and vanilla. Mix wet ingredients into the dry ones, then add eggs, one at a time. Scrape down the bowl to ensure all ingredients are incorporated.
Pour half of batter into prepared pan. Spread half of apples over it. Pour the remaining batter over the apples and arrange the remaining apples on top. Bake for about 1 1/2 hours, or until a tester comes out clean.
How fun! Thanks for sharing with us!

My favorite is apple crisp - from the Betty Crocker cookbook.
4 cups sliced apples
2/3 to 3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup oats
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup margarine softened.
Place apples in baking dish.
Mix other ingredients and sprinkle over apples. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes.
Ok that brown die cut paper is too gorgeous. ;) I found a couple of fun-sounding apple cupcake recipes. (No, I don't bake because I can't eat sugar, but the internet is my friend!)

And these look just like caramel apples! But since it's from the cupcake blog I'm guessing you already know about them... http://cupcakeblog.com/?p=60.
