Fall starts tomorrow. This time of year always makes me think of falling leaves, turkey and APPLES! Living near the Annapolis Valley, it’s a tradition to head there and stock up on lots and lots of apples for baking.
So I thought I’d share with you a recipe that is a favourite in our family. My mom makes it best but even I can pull it off if needed.
The sauce makes the recipe! It has a caramel like taste and is the perfect sweetness to compliment the cake. Here you go. We always make it for Thanksgiving but it’s great all year ’round! Enjoy!
How are you feeling right now?
