Boy, oh, Boy, that pie! That should exist in everyone's home. And the air would be wonderful for society. Your videos show your love of cooking. This is what makes your presentations so attractive.
Very addicting videos. I have realized that I have been watching most of the available time Fy Nyth. The relaxed and casual manner of presentation and cozy house arrangements do make this channel attractive. Thank you for sharing and taking time to make the videos.
I admire your independence an work ethic. I enjoy your videos as I see my younger self in you I can dream a little bit about living the life you've made for yourself. Although I am 50 plus it's good to dream. LOL!! You are very mature for your age an self sufficient. I can see your knowledge is hands on experience. You keep doing what your doing young lady it's a pleasure to help support your videos. Proud of you from Ky.
🍎I so look forward to your videos , the nature walks and recipes are so calming. You make us feel like we are there visiting you and that's what makes it so enjoyable . Can't wait to see your new homestead Ariel !
Yum yum yum! I have never seen a pie put together quite that way. Looks delicious and quite clever! Your friends are blessed and fortunate to have you in their lives! You go girl😉!
Another great tiny house recipe and video! You are very knowledgeable about foods and I find this an added bonus to watching your cooking videos. So glad you are showing how to use older fruits that some may throw away.
When you said "Kerrygold" I jumped out of my chair. To be clear I was remembering the happy moments in a relationship long past when I gathered apples from 2 trees (and only) next to our home and made apple pies with a recipe from an "Amish Cookbook" (some of the most delicious baking ever). My gift to her and her response was to have me prep/make/cook the apple pies. And some years later I stumbled on Kerrygold and I dare say I have never tasted butter so delicious. I have often stated that we spread Kerrygold on bread because to eat it with a spoon would be "Crude" and should only be done discreetly. Happy and delicious memories, thanks for the lift darlin.
There is a local cheese factory that only uses milk from grass fed cows. I am not sure if they sell butter as I eat very little cheese. You are right about the roundup problem and its one reason why I wanted land. Im tired of black garlic and potatoes from the round up farms. Pie looks good!
If you ever get fed up living where you live you could maybe think about emigrating to Scotland and become my regular pie maker, as every pie you make looks so mouth waveringly delicious.
Love the way you explain the recipe not leaving anything out. I remember the first apple pie I made when I was young I did not mound the apples and there was almost no pie. Enjoy your videos.
I enjoy your videos. The pies looked so good I could almost smell them. I wish I was one of your neighbors, they are lucky. You could open up a restaurant with all your skills. Thanks for sharing. :)
Thank you for taking the time to sharing your wonderful way of cooking an apple pie. Looks very good, one of my favorite pies for sure, you have brought back some wonderful memories of my grandmothers apple pies. Thank you again. dd
Ariel Happy New Year!!!! To you and Grizzly and you family :) I made this pie for my parents already and they loved it! Making it again right now for our celebration with my husband's side of the family today! Thank you so much. I even mentioned it in a comment to the fouchs off grid bc they are processing bushels of apples right now. Have an awesome day!
Fy Nyth let me be the first to confirm lol be careful the apple variety you use!! My pie ended up as more of a compote because I chose a variety I was not familiar with. So the apples let off WAY too much juice. Still delicious but ended up using it in a bowl topped with ice cream instead.
I just really enjoyed this video, hon, and I think you are quickly becoming one of my favorite UA-cam channels. That pie looked scrumptious! I imagine you grew up learning to cook from some very talented ladies. Just for curiosities sake, not being judgmental in any way, you have mentioned in a couple of your videos that growing up your family did not celebrate holidays. Is there a special reason for not doing so? I love learning about how we all can be so different yet so very much the same in our "humanness". I personally believe there are many ways to live a beautiful and happy and loving life. What one person celebrates and another does not should not be an issue. It's the living of one's life in a good and uplifting way with love and respect for all that is important. So, sweet girl, I'm not going to wish you Merry Christmas or Happy Hanukkah or anything like that but I do want to wish you an abundance of God's beautiful blessings on your life and those you love.
Thanks! My parents were not a fan of most holidays due to the history of pagan traditions that got turned into "christian" holidays when Christianity officially became the world religion under the Roman empire. So it's just not a tradition or habit I have any attachment to. :) It doesn't offend me at all that others have celebrations they care about or have wonderful memories associated with them.
Fy Nyth Thanks Ariel for your reply. Your parents are so right about the origins of these holidays. I've just begun to study all this in the last few years and it's amazing what I didn't know about how Christmas and Easter originated, and I'm sure many other holidays too. Our family still celebrates the " holidays " with family get-togethers and such but we try to separate what is man-made from that which is God made. Blessings to you and yours.
You are a encyclopedia of trivial and I am jealous. If I had it to do over again it would be similar to your lifestyle. Healthy mind healthy ♥️ 💜 heart.
That looks delicious. I need to get my wife to make an apple pie Years ago butter tasted great. Now is doesn't taste as good as I remember. I thought it was old age and less ability to taste things. (I'm 74). Your comments about grass fed butter make me think I need to try better butter and see if I notice the difference.
Looks yummy! I like your healthy ingredient advice. Adding cranberries and nuts sounds very good. See you're using your new oven. Congratulations. I'll try this recipe, since I like to make apple crisps.
Thank you Ariel, always love your cooking videos!! 💖 Talking about butter reminded me of a little rhythm from my childhood lol, thought I'd share: it's called Betty Botter.. Betty Botter bought some butter, but she said the butters bitter, if I put it in my batter it will make my batter bitter, but a bit of better butter in my bitter batter will make my batter better! Try saying that fast lol bbbbbbb 😃😂👋🌏xx
Hi Ariel, thanks for the video. You're comments about milk are spot on. In Australia we can now get A2 milk which doesn;t have the offending offending milk protein (the A1 protein), and so is much easier on the stomach. I don't know if you can get it in the US yet, If you can I recommend you try it. It is very hard to go back to normal milk once you have tried A2 milk.
I don't know if Rhubarb grows where you are but apple and rhubarb is an awesome combination! In Australia we call this kind of pie an apple crumble and I have Never put a base crust on my crumbles!
As Einstein would have said, "I just received a few more wrinkles in my brain"...lol... Pays to have an open mind when cooking ... I am adaptable to a most welcomed adventure in a learning experience to a none traditional style of baking ...You're a "Rock Star" in my book ...!!!... ❤❤❤... 🍎 🍏 🍎 ... Xellent recipe ... 🍎 🍏 🍎 ... ❤❤❤...
Nice video Ariel , I'm actually on a completely grain free diet , paleo, so I use a lot of nuts coconut oil (for making my own chocolate bars , with stevia and raw honey for sweetness) and almonds for my own version of bread which also has the following , flax seed, tapioca flour, arrowroot flour, and I also now add one cup of banana flour which doesn't taste like banana but really makes the bread more "bread-like" I use seeds as well , sunflower, chia, sesame and the bread tastes great! if you want the full recipe I'll mail it to you
I wasn't trying to offend Canadians! I think calling any food American is a little funny anyway since most foods here are from all over the world. Maybe TV dinners are truly an American invention.... :)
I know that you weren't trying to offend us Canucks, but my all time favourite pie was my mom's 'cherry' meringue pie using sour cherries, it was to die for!
....sorry for spelling your name wrong, I always have 'arials' on my mind in my remote mucking underground mining career.....it's usually the arial that causes remote function failures on the remote scooptram that I'm operating, again, sorry!
Cinnamon also helps balance blood sugar, according to Joel Wallach at least. Cranberries are good for the urinary tract. Maybe it will offset the sugar. : )
It would be super cool to have a shot at the end of your videos of the food being cut/scooped into and placed onto a plate or in a bowl. We would see details like how yummy it looks inside, steam lifting from the food, and if its a dessert we could see a scoop of ice cream start to melt over the apples and cranberries and crust. A nice close up of the dish on the counter or table. Oh my goodness I am drooling now! Ha ha! Anyways, its just a small idea. Keep up the good work! Love your videos! :)
+Fy Nyth : I often squeeze just a little fresh lemon juice into the Apple mixture for the pie to cut the sweetness and freshen up the flavor. It has the added benefit of keeping the apples from turning brown before it's placed in the oven to bake. ;-)
Eat whole foods. Live an active life as being off grid requires some level of physical activity to split wood, carry water, shovel snow, etc. Hike a lot. And sometimes work out something like this - ua-cam.com/video/gOctAnLZwIQ/v-deo.html
As someone who lives in "Wheat central" it would be highly unusual to use roundup as a dessicant. Wheat, generally all ripens at the same time and does not shatter out of the heads if left standing while low spots ripen. If uneven ripening occurs it would be more likely to cut the grain with a swather and let it lay in the swath. Roundup, at least around here is used as a burn down before seeding. Not necessarily the case everywhere but that is the usual here in Sask. Canada
Not trying to argue, but I think Canada may handle it differently. I see desiccants of some kind used in the fields closest to me for sure. And it seems that at least some portion of US farmers do use that. Though the use for other weed killing concerns me as well.... I don't know all the reasons for everything, I just experiment on myself to see how I feel with different things. :)
Not a problem. I was just saying what I have seen here in Canada and also northern ND. I have seen Roundup used as a dessicant but that was on peas. I suspect that you are right and there are different regs between the 2 countries. Never checked it out as it didn't interest me as I wasn't using that stuff anyway. Have a fine day.
Wow they're amazing. I did apple pie and custard today after Sunday lunch 😀 By the way I have a Pecan nut tree in the back garden. We are quite lucky here as we get lots of fruit trees and Paphos, South West Cyprus (where I live) is the only place on Cyprus that Bananas will grow. I adore blueberries and raspberries but can only get them on rare occasions 😣
Fy Nyth What inspired or guided you to live self sufficiently? Were you raised canning food? In the country? Why no holiday celebrations? Do you have siblings? Any tips on encouraging independence in children?
Any time of year is a gr8 time to get together with family/friends. The "Hollidays' just seem to cause stress when folks are trying to have fellowship.
I have canned both butter and ghee (clarified butter) with no health issues. On most store bought butter the package states no protein so a water bath works, but I still pressure can, just to be safe. Been doing it for 3 years and am still alive. Note mix salted and unsalted butter half and half. Have you found an Aldi's or Sharp Shoppers type place out west?
Enjoyed the video, but now I hungry for pie. I remember the first time I made a county apple pie recipe. The apples were piled high and I struggle to fit the top crust on it. When it was done baking the mini mile high crust was a gorgeous golden brown, but when I sliced into it there was a cavern of space between the top crust and the apples.
indie825 - i have pears, cinnamon and brown sugar, but i must resist for now. I'd like to try the kerry gold butter. Wisconsin is cooking up something against it. It's dairy country after all, but KG is fairly pricey @ $4.99 per brick since it's imported. I don't see a problem. US butter is cheap. Ill order it online from A_zon.
I'm the same when it comes to dairy, drinking milk that's out, I use it for my cereal but there is only enough in the bowl so I'm not eating dry cereal. The worst offender for myself is ice crème gives me gut pains, I love butter never have any issues with it I eat too much butter.
Noticing in previous comments some are disappointed she didn't show us her slicing into a pie and tasting it on camera. When she said she was not going to use a pie crust, I must admit to some skepticism, and would liked to have seen the engineering marvel of making an apple pie without the pie. I must admit I was disappointed as well, but not surprised. She pointed out halfway through making these pies that they were not solely for herself at Fy Nyth but she was planning on sharing the pies with coworkers and friends. When sharing something this special, it's proper and customary to present the full pie and cut into it with the company sharing said pie. So that would not be on camera. We must remind ourselves this is not like professionally made cooking shows where the dishes are made for show and are probably disposed off camera. Even tho I can't recall seeing cooking shows this entertaining and enlightening since Julia Childs. She's using actual daily chores from her life as opportunities for sharing her knowledge in these videos. So the end results are practical and functional. There's plenty going on in Ariel's life off camera that we'll never see, and that's probably for the best. We are only left to envy those who appreciated the pies. Some mysteries are best left unsolved. Still.. how do the apples stay together without a pie crust bottom? The mind boggles.
# I LOVE your Videos : ) I enjoy your recipes and agree with you about the ratio of fruit to crust in PIES. I LOVE the fruit fillings; however Pie Crust is not only 'fattening'; but it gives me indigestion. Do you have any Pie Crust recipes that are Tummy Friendlier ?? You LOOK Like an Identical Twin to my own precious Daughter : ) : )
+Fy Nyth : I was told long ago to avoid margarine and those types of fats. Doctor and even the dietitian told my parents (who both have very specific diet needs) that real butter is much better for you than the "alternative" versions (like margarine). Our family tends to buy the _Challenge_ brand (which has no GMO's, etc.) or the Amish roll style butter. I have purchased the _Kerry Gold_ brand when we're at the grocery store. However, 99.9% of the time, the butter we use is made fresh from the Amish and we buy it from them directly at their store. After getting rid of a lot of the synthetic stuff they put in food these days, it has made a distinctly noticeable difference in our health. Our garden and locally sourced food is our way of procuring the ingredients we use in our cooking/baking. In fact, I can't remember the last time I purchased a national brand of bread. I actually could taste the chemical in a loaf several years ago and that effectively ended me buying bread from the grocery store. I either make it from scratch or buy it from the bakery (where they make it with whole ingredients). What a difference! I no longer can tolerate commercially baked products (like Wonder Bread, Aunt Millie's, Etc.). So I am 100% in agreement with your (aim for the most nutritious, healthiest foods) approach!
Nice! If I lived near anyone who sold fresh butter, I'd go that route for sure! And I know exactly what you mean, after you stop eating that artificial "food" stuff for a while, if you do go back, most things taste like chemicals.
Hello Ariel, love your videos I have tried 3 of your recipes! The chili, the cornbeard, and the apple crisp. The Apple Crisp is my favorite 😍.I have a cooking QUESTION now to ask you. Please tell me do you meal plan? If not, then how do you come up with your meals each week? Where do you get your easy recipes from? I do believe it was the actual planning of cooking enough to have left overs that I hated more than the cooking itself. Any feed back from you on this would be helpful. Thanks a lot.
Wonderful! I'm so glad you like it. That might be a good topic to cover. I don't usually meal plan. I generally look at what I have available, what's in my garden, freezer, pantry, on sale at the store, etc. And then think of something I can make with what I have. :)
Tiny house big meals. My kind of life. Thanks Ariel
This is what we in Australia call an apple crumble, looks delish.
Boy, oh, Boy, that pie! That should exist in everyone's home. And the air would be wonderful for society. Your videos show your love of cooking. This is what makes your presentations so attractive.
Awww, I was waiting for you to cut it then taste it... yummy!
Pies look delicious! Love the idea of skipping the crust for a change. Thank you for sharing, Ariel
Very addicting videos. I have realized that I have been watching most of the available time Fy Nyth. The relaxed and casual manner of presentation and cozy house arrangements do make this channel attractive. Thank you for sharing and taking time to make the videos.

Next time, please slice that pie so we can see the inner beauty! Loved watching this video, Ariel! Made my mouth water!
Very good pie recipe
🍎I so look forward to your videos , the nature walks and recipes are so calming. You make us feel like we are there visiting you and that's what makes it so enjoyable . Can't wait to see your new homestead Ariel !
I never knew about the shiny and matt side of tin foil! Another thing I just learned watching your vlog.
I always wondered what side of foil to use ...thank you shiny side down toward food got it .
Yum yum yum! I have never seen a pie put together quite that way. Looks delicious and quite clever! Your friends are blessed and fortunate to have you in their lives! You go girl😉!
Pouring the spices into the lid is brilliant!! Great idea
Another great tiny house recipe and video! You are very knowledgeable about foods and I find this an added bonus to watching your cooking videos. So glad you are showing how to use older fruits that some may throw away.
Hello Ariel; You sure have a lot of good information to share. I like the idea of a crustless apple pie.
Thank you for this excellent video.

I have often stated that we spread Kerrygold on bread because to eat it with a spoon would be "Crude" and should only be done discreetly. Happy and delicious memories, thanks for the lift darlin.
The difference in taste is quite noticeable!
There is a local cheese factory that only uses milk from grass fed cows. I am not sure if they sell butter as I eat very little cheese.
You are right about the roundup problem and its one reason why I wanted land. Im tired of black garlic and potatoes from the round up farms.
Pie looks good!
Lovely !! What we in the UK would call a fruit crumble.
If you ever get fed up living where you live you could maybe think about emigrating to Scotland and become my regular pie maker, as every pie you make looks so mouth waveringly delicious.
Hi again Ariel, just wanted to be the first to congratulate you on 12K subs, very well deserved, onward now to many more.
Thanks!
Love the way you explain the recipe not leaving anything out. I remember the first apple pie I made when I was young I did not mound the apples and there was almost no pie. Enjoy your videos.
Mmmm, bet it was scrumptious. Thanks for the video. Congrats on your oven too! That worked out great huh.
Looks delicious! I learn something new from every video you post.
I always enjoy your cooking videos ! You always put interesting little twists in your recipes. That looks like it came out great ! Bon Apetit
You are efficient and fun to watch.thank you , very enjoyable.
I enjoy your videos. The pies looked so good I could almost smell them. I wish I was one of your neighbors, they are lucky. You could open up a restaurant with all your skills. Thanks for sharing. :)

Making it again right now for our celebration with my husband's side of the family today! Thank you so much. I even mentioned it in a comment to the fouchs off grid bc they are processing bushels of apples right now. Have an awesome day!
Aww thanks! I'm so glad you all enjoyed it!

Yeah, a good baking apple like Roam/Macintosh/Granny Smith tends to work best, but it somewhat depends on what texture you prefer.
Looks delicious! Another great food video.
I just really enjoyed this video, hon, and I think you are quickly becoming one of my favorite UA-cam channels.

Very nice! Looks delicious
Good ole' apple crumble, yummy xx

you are just so informative I just love your channel thank you for all the interesting facts and not afraid to share thanks
you are great
Reminds me of Lancaster :). We used oatmeal/brown sugar topping for all of our crisps and pies. I'm inspired to make one today!
when you get to your new place fy maybe you can put in a root cellar to store your fruits and vegetables in for the winter
That is something I want to do for sure!
u my fav pie maker
I was waiting to see a slice of that delicious looking pie! I believe I will try your recipe - looks like a winner.
Yummy. Love apple pie!
Mmm, your channel seems to make me hungry lately. Love the apple pie idea. Have a wonderful day.
Kerrygold Butter now there is a name I haven’t heared in decades since I left Scotland in 1974 on my road to adventures in the world.
This is interesting. Will try it. Looks yummy!
They look delicious!...thanks n enjoy!
Ariel, Your the best :)
I absolutely love your cooking videos!!!
Why thank you!
excellent video-thank you!
You are so sweet Ariel, .I love apple pie 😊thanks 🌸 peace
Looks good
Now I NEED pie for breakfast! Pie, pie, PIE!
Looks great I’m hungry now !!!!!!
I just made an apple pie recently very similar to yours,always cranberries. I use chopped walnuts and oats in my crumb topping.
I cannot believe that giant mountain of apples reduced down to a regular flat pie. lol
bgtx it’s the water content in the apples.
🍎🍏🍎🍏🍎🍏yummy apple pie 🍏🍎🍏🍎🍏🍎
Thank you Ariel, always love your cooking videos!! 💖 Talking about butter reminded me of a little rhythm from my childhood lol, thought I'd share: it's called Betty Botter..

I don't consider myself a "baker" but your pie recipe seems like something I could manage :) Tx, Rich
We have a problem with store bought apples with the pesticides beneath the wax on the skin. Home grown, huge difference.
Hi Ariel, thanks for the video. You're comments about milk are spot on. In Australia we can now get A2 milk which doesn;t have the offending offending milk protein (the A1 protein), and so is much easier on the stomach. I don't know if you can get it in the US yet, If you can I recommend you try it. It is very hard to go back to normal milk once you have tried A2 milk.
LOVE YOUR CONTENT. Wish I could finagle it in VT.
Kerrygold comes from Ireland, We use it all the time in England.
that was really good i will try a variation on your recipe it saves the hassle of making pastry
I don't know if Rhubarb grows where you are but apple and rhubarb is an awesome combination! In Australia we call this kind of pie an apple crumble and I have Never put a base crust on my crumbles!

+Fy Nyth : I often squeeze just a little fresh lemon juice into the Apple mixture for the pie to cut the sweetness and freshen up the flavor. It has the added benefit of keeping the apples from turning brown before it's placed in the oven to bake. ;-)
I LOVE the crust in a pie! The best crusts, to me, slightly soak up the apple mix. Still, I'd do this because it looks good.
Well you can just make the same pie but put a crust under it first! :)
Yes, you mentioned that. I think I'll try it your way the first time.
You’re so fit! What do you do to keep in good shape? Maybe you can do a video about it
Eat whole foods. Live an active life as being off grid requires some level of physical activity to split wood, carry water, shovel snow, etc. Hike a lot. And sometimes work out something like this - ua-cam.com/video/gOctAnLZwIQ/v-deo.html

Looks so good! It's nice that you have the time now for more videos! I was wondering if it's going to be hard leaving friends for the new home place?
mmm apple pie with custard or cream :)
Have you done a video about the way you were raised? I’m interested.
As far as what about my childhood?
Yes and your faith
Fy Nyth What inspired or guided you to live self sufficiently? Were you raised canning food? In the country? Why no holiday celebrations? Do you have siblings? Any tips on encouraging independence in children?
I too am curious as I do not celebrate holidays.
Wunderschones Lachen!!!!
You’ll have lots of fruits for pies in your new place!
I sure hope so! :)
Looks delicious even for this Leto guy. Love you channel.
Yummy!
I like to Cooke in my tiny home big kitchen
Nice! Me too.
awesome! you have a new sub! greetings from spain !
Welcome to the channel!
Tell me how was the pecan's baked in the pie? soft ? what about the cranberries ?
Any time of year is a gr8 time to get together with family/friends. The "Hollidays' just seem to cause stress when folks are trying to have fellowship.
Don't forget the ice cream:)
I wanna come over for dinner
I have canned both butter and ghee (clarified butter) with no health issues.
On most store bought butter the package states no protein so a water bath works, but I still pressure can, just to be safe.
Been doing it for 3 years and am still alive.
Note mix salted and unsalted butter half and half.
Have you found an Aldi's or Sharp Shoppers type place out west?
PEARS! I use my apple corer for PEARS, too.
Enjoyed the video, but now I hungry for pie. I remember the first time I made a county apple pie recipe. The apples were piled high and I struggle to fit the top crust on it. When it was done baking the mini mile high crust was a gorgeous golden brown, but when I sliced into it there was a cavern of space between the top crust and the apples.
indie825 - i have pears, cinnamon and brown sugar, but i must resist for now. I'd like to try the kerry gold butter.
Wisconsin is cooking up something against it. It's dairy country after all, but KG is fairly pricey @ $4.99 per brick since it's imported. I don't see a problem. US butter is cheap. Ill order it online from A_zon.
Cook the apples prior to placing them in the pie crust for baking, add top crust and bake. There will be no space between the top and the apples.
Indie825, that's funny! :)
I'm the same when it comes to dairy, drinking milk that's out, I use it for my cereal but there is only enough in the bowl so I'm not eating dry cereal. The worst offender for myself is ice crème gives me gut pains, I love butter never have any issues with it I eat too much butter.
That sounds much like the way my digestion reacts.
Noticing in previous comments some are disappointed she didn't show us her slicing into a pie and tasting it on camera. When she said she was not going to use a pie crust, I must admit to some skepticism, and would liked to have seen the engineering marvel of making an apple pie without the pie. I must admit I was disappointed as well, but not surprised. She pointed out halfway through making these pies that they were not solely for herself at Fy Nyth but she was planning on sharing the pies with coworkers and friends. When sharing something this special, it's proper and customary to present the full pie and cut into it with the company sharing said pie. So that would not be on camera. We must remind ourselves this is not like professionally made cooking shows where the dishes are made for show and are probably disposed off camera. Even tho I can't recall seeing cooking shows this entertaining and enlightening since Julia Childs. She's using actual daily chores from her life as opportunities for sharing her knowledge in these videos. So the end results are practical and functional. There's plenty going on in Ariel's life off camera that we'll never see, and that's probably for the best. We are only left to envy those who appreciated the pies. Some mysteries are best left unsolved. Still.. how do the apples stay together without a pie crust bottom? The mind boggles.
The apples just cook together as the pie bakes and then once cooled a little, they stick together just like in any pie. :)
@@FyNyth you're magical! If I tried that I'd have a bunch of unhappy chopped up apples looking up at me. One of em would probably even cuss me out.
Looks sooooo yummy. Wish I could eat oats! :-(
You could do the same thing, just add a little more flour and skip the oats!
I will have to give it a try, I really like the idea of the cranberries. Thanks!
Ever tried crumbled soft oatmeal cookies as a crust?
I have not!
# I LOVE your Videos : ) I enjoy your recipes and agree with you about the ratio of fruit to crust in PIES. I LOVE the fruit fillings; however Pie Crust is not only 'fattening'; but it gives me indigestion. Do you have any Pie Crust recipes that are Tummy Friendlier ?? You LOOK Like an Identical Twin to my own precious Daughter : ) : )
+Fy Nyth : I was told long ago to avoid margarine and those types of fats. Doctor and even the dietitian told my parents (who both have very specific diet needs) that real butter is much better for you than the "alternative" versions (like margarine). Our family tends to buy the _Challenge_ brand (which has no GMO's, etc.) or the Amish roll style butter. I have purchased the _Kerry Gold_ brand when we're at the grocery store. However, 99.9% of the time, the butter we use is made fresh from the Amish and we buy it from them directly at their store. After getting rid of a lot of the synthetic stuff they put in food these days, it has made a distinctly noticeable difference in our health. Our garden and locally sourced food is our way of procuring the ingredients we use in our cooking/baking. In fact, I can't remember the last time I purchased a national brand of bread. I actually could taste the chemical in a loaf several years ago and that effectively ended me buying bread from the grocery store. I either make it from scratch or buy it from the bakery (where they make it with whole ingredients). What a difference! I no longer can tolerate commercially baked products (like Wonder Bread, Aunt Millie's, Etc.). So I am 100% in agreement with your (aim for the most nutritious, healthiest foods) approach!
Nice! If I lived near anyone who sold fresh butter, I'd go that route for sure! And I know exactly what you mean, after you stop eating that artificial "food" stuff for a while, if you do go back, most things taste like chemicals.
Hello Ariel, love your videos I have tried 3 of your recipes! The chili, the cornbeard, and the apple crisp. The Apple Crisp is my favorite 😍.I have a cooking QUESTION now to ask you. Please tell me do you meal plan? If not, then how do you come up with your meals each week? Where do you get your easy recipes from? I do believe it was the actual planning of cooking enough to have left overs that I hated more than the cooking itself. Any feed back from you on this would be helpful. Thanks a lot.
Wonderful! I'm so glad you like it. That might be a good topic to cover. I don't usually meal plan. I generally look at what I have available, what's in my garden, freezer, pantry, on sale at the store, etc. And then think of something I can make with what I have. :)
Fy Nyth That's when having an imagination is priceless. Thank you for answering so fast😊
