My grandma kept a little notebook with most of her recipes - these were the ones she used most often. I am moving into the notebook tonight. How appropriate that it begins with Apple Crisp. Who doesn't like apple crisp?
Apples (as many as needed for sized pan used)
3/4 cup sugar
Cinnamon to taste
1 cup flour
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
Pinch of salt
Mix apples, 3/4 cups sugar and cinnamon. Place in baking pan.
Mix flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar, butter and salt. Sprinkle over apples. Bake at 325 degrees 35 - 40 minutes.

My Grandma passed away at the age of 94. She was a wonderful cook and I was lucky enough to inherit her recipes. Many date back to the 1940s and 50s. Grandma prepared them in a charming country kitchen with no running water and most of her produce came from her garden, not from the grocery store. These are made-from-scratch recipes. I wish I had spent more time with her in the kitchen and . . . I wish I had spent more time with her for so many other reasons.
