Apple Crisp

Had 5 apples leftover, too many for cake, too little for pie, and also I was lazy to make pie crust so apple crisp it is! It's like apple crumble without the base pastry. Win-win though, less carbs and less hassle. This was a hit! Though next time I think we can do with slightly less sugar for the topping.

I made this in my mum's kitchen, brought over the ingredients in ziploc bags during raya visiting hahaha.


Apple Crisp (original recipe here)

5 apples, skinned and diced
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 
2 cups flour (or 1 cup oats + 1 cup flour)
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup melted butter

Mix the sugar and ground cinnamon in the baking dish. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and baking soda together. Add in the melted butter and mix using a fork or your finger tips and make crumbs. Sprinkle the crumbs over the apples, and bake for 45 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.

Best eaten straight from the oven, with vanilla ice cream! I kept it in the fridge and heated it in the microwave the next day and was still good and crunchy. This is so good and simple, will definitely do this again when I have extra apples.

CNY Bakes

Back from the long weekend! Spent two days fully at home, cooking and baking. So happy. Day 1 was sindhi briyani and Almond London . Day 2 was ayam lemak cili padi and a batch of almost Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies , but I split the batter into 2: hazelnut, white chocolate, cranberry combination and hazelnut, dark chocolate chip combination. I made the cranberry ones first, they taste awesome. But after I ate the chocolate chip one, say bye bye to cranberry! Nothing beats chocolate. And the white chocolate chips somehow dissolved into the batter, melted. What to do, it's just white chips from Redman. I should try a better brand instead.  Happy new year indeed!

White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Bars

 I love these! It's like a blondie but to make me feel less guilty, there's oatmeal. Was supposed to make these and freeze for easy morning breakfasts, but seems like they ran out pretty quickly that it didn't require that much freezing. Original recipe here . I made these almost three months ago and I still think about making these again and again. White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Bars 2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats 2 cups flour 1 1/2 cups brown sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon vanilla 2 large eggs 1 1/4 cups butter melted 1 cups white chocolate chips 1 cup dried cranberries This is like one bowl mix so anything goes. Spread batter in two 8x8 square tins, bake for 22 min at 180 degrees Celsius. 

Daiso Ramekins

Finally finally went to Daiso!! Wanted to go there for ages already! The first thing I came in, went to the cooking section. Found my ramekins! But they're not white. Oh wells. Can't be choosy for $2 ramekins! There were white ones, but super small white ramekins. And pie tarts too! Oooh so tempting! But I don't know when I'll make tarts hurhur. Actually I'm still thinking what I should bake using these ramekins. I remember having one of those "I wish I had ramekins right now" moments but I can't remember when. Maybe when I was making lava cake . Daiso is evil. It's so cheap you just feel like coming back again! Oh and did I mention there's a $2 weighing scale?! Measures up to a kilo but that's quite alright for baking isn't it! I mean, $2!! Dirt cheap lah. Not sure about the accuracy though. Didn't do much cleaning last weekend, very much spent lazing around at home just like what weekends should be like. I love being at ho
