Hello!

Hi World!  Sara here, also known as the Ninja Farmer's Wife (NFW).  I'm just getting started but I am very excited to share my thoughts on books I read, crafts I try, and all the other fabulous ideas that I come across on the internet and the world around me.  I'd love to start by sharing the very yummy apple crisp I made last night.  I should have taken a picture to share but sadly it is already all gone!  Let's just say that with the ninja farmer around good things disappear quickly.

Easy Apple Crisp
4-5 big cooking apples
cinnamon (1 tbsp for apples and another tbsp for topping)
1 egg
1/2 cup flour (I used whole wheat)
1/2 cup oats
1 cup sugar (I did half white and half brown)
1/4 cup shredded coconut
1 tbsp baking powder

Start by preheating your oven to 300 and spraying the bottom of a 8" square pan.
Then peel, core, and cut your apple into chunks and mix 1 tbsp of cinnamon into the apples.  Put the apples in the pan.
Mix the baking powder, flour, oats, sugar, and coconut together and then add in the egg.  The mixture will be crumbly but shouldn't be dry.  Spread the mixture over the apples and then sprinkle the cinnamon on top.  Put into the oven for an hour and try to avoid excess salivation as your house fills with the aroma of baking apples and cinnamon.

The thing that we loved so much about this apple crisp is that the topping is super crunchy but also has a great consistency.  I paired the crisp with a little scoop of vanilla ice cream but it would also be great with a little whipped cream or just cream poured over it.

I hope you enjoy this recipe idea and let me know if you try it out!
