Got out this morning to clean up the remains of the bunny feast on our lawn, and pick more apples off the tree. We got a huge trash bag of pre-eaten apples, a giant bowl of perfect fruit, and another tall bag of almost-perfect apples, which we then spent the next two hours paring and slicing.
The house smells amazing, with a crockpot of applesauce simmering for hours, while we made a Waldorf salad, and four apple crumb pies (baked two, froze two for later), and still have two more huge ziplocs full of sliced apples, and two more bowls full of ready-to-eat fruit.
Delicious!
It's been a stellar year for apples in this area — our trees did fabulously, too, and apple trees that bend over fences by streets have all been laden with fruit, too.

When I have extra apple slices (or just apples), I make this. It’s ways and quick and makes a great breakfast or dessert. Apple Oven Cake
http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/apple-oven-cake-10000001924665/ It’s not cake in the true sense, but tastily none the less.
