I have a ton of apples at my house and need some recipes.  I don't love apple pie, it's alright but I'm not a fan of pie crusts.  Anyone have some delicious recipes for apples?

oh that's a really good idea, i'd completely forgotten about applesauce.

Ooooh KM - that does sound good. My mom makes apple sauce but she uses a food mill and it always looks like such hard work.

I peel & slice em up, add some sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg & raisins if you want & throw them in the bottom of a pie plate, dutch oven or a brownie pan or whatever to bake them.

Then throw some flour, oatmeal, butter, sugar, brown sugar and cinnamon into a bowl & mush it together with your hands till it's all crumbly. Throw it on top of the apples & bake it for 30-45m. It tastes incredible & people will think you're a genius.

I usually do a handful or so of each thing but check out barefoot contessa's recipe if you wan exact measurements for the topping: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/apple-and-pear-crisp-recipe/index.html

Mmmm apples.  Make apple crisp!  It's not really pie, more like applesauce in yummy goodness!

Here's a great recipe:

ohhh that apple crisp recipe sounds amazing.  Now i'm starting to think I wish I had more apples.

Oh, do you can?  Or have any canning equipment?  My mom cans EVERYTHING, so she makes a bunch of applesauce and cans it all.  She does the same with apple pie filling, veggies, etc.  She does sliced peaches too, not sure if you could can sliced apples or not, but it's a thought!
