Demonstration Success!

Simply Home Cooking
One of the recipes I used during yesterday's class. I used Grains (Spelt, Soft White Pastry Berries, Brown Rice, Barley) that I had soaked and then dehydrated before milling for maximum nutrition and ease of digestion...turned out SO moist and yummy!

Apple Crumb Pie "Quick" Bread

Apple Pie Filling
2 Apples diced small (I like granny smith & fuji)
2 Tbsp Melted Butter
1/4 C homemade Brown sugar
1/4 C White Sugar
1 tsp Saigon Cinnamon
1 tsp Fresh Nutmeg
1 Tbsp Cornstarch
Bread
1C Room Temp. Butter
1/4 C Sugar
1/4 C Homemade brown sugar
2 Eggs
1 Tbsp Mexican Vanilla
2C Flour (ap)
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Saigon Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Celtic Sea Salt

For Filling
Combine all ingredients excepin butter and cornstarch in a sauce pan. Cook to make apples tender then add butter and cornstarch and stir till thick. Let cool.

Bread
Using the Bosch with the cookie paddles or batter whisk, cream Butter and Sugar together till fluffy. Scrape bowl at least twice. Add eggs one at a time and vanilla. Next add apple mixture.
sift together all your dry ingredients. Add to wet mixture and only mix till incorporated. Do not over mix or bread will be tough.

Pour into lightly sprayed loaf pan.

Bake at 325 for 30 minutes, take out and top with a crumb topping (equal parts fresh rolled oats, all purpose flour & 1/2 part homemade brown sugar), put back into oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes.
