We had terrible harvest last year but this year is fabulous so I do think some of the recipes you mention will be made soon .... although I suspect it may be the tradition blackberry and apple crumble I make first!!
All our apples are ready and picked - the Bramleys were particularly plentiful so I do see a crumble coming up very soon! The pears are not yet ready though.
That looks like a good harvest! Will they all be edible? We had an apple tree at our old house and every apple seemed to be destroyed by birds or wasps!
Isn't this time of year great? Looks like you have a bumper crop there. We picked out apples this afternoon too - well, a couple of baskets. I love this time of year Enjoy your haul! xx #SundayPhoto
miam miam, tasty Norman apples, from your trees I presume.
ReplyDeleteOf course - we had almost no apples last year so this year it making up for that.
DeleteThese look great! I can think of so many things to do with these apples! I love the basket they are in too! Angela from daysinbed xx

DeleteOh, I wish we had an apple tree in the garden... compote de pommes, tartes aux pommes, pommes au four... miam!

DeleteRosie, they look delicious! The red just pops. What sort of apples are they?
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure of the variety - I think Simon knows so I'll ask him later. They are eaters, I do know that and so tasty!
DeleteOhhh, looks like fall is on its way. I am going to miss these seasonal cues, we've had nothing but hot sun with cloudless skies.
ReplyDeleteMind you, nothing wrong with weather like that! Where are you?
DeleteWhat a bumper crop, are they from one of your trees? I hope you enjoy them. #MySundayPhoto
ReplyDeleteYes they are ours - the apple harvest is very bountiful this year :)
