This is such a stunning colored curd! Stunning! This recipe can be found in many sites with small variations.
I use it on scones of course, as a filling for cakes and cookies, as a layer in a cream cheese pie...

This is the best lemon curd I've ever eaten! I'm being serious here.
I use it on scones of course, as a filling for cakes and thumbprint cookies, as a layer in a layered lemon pie...

Apple ButterI like to use three of four different kinds of apples to maximize the flavors.
The yield of cooked apple mash can change from batch to batch, due to the juiciness or firmness of the apples. I usually get 7 cups of apple mash, so I use a total of 3 1/2 cups of sugars. |
