Apple ginger mini pies (mini pies de jengibre y canela)

Although I love autumn and winter very much, I am always surprised by the first signs of Spring. Here spring begins on September 21, more than ever the flowers of the trees are like a miracle.  We have had a bad winter, very icy and without rain and this is the worst, the planet really has a problem of climate change in that the seasons are no longer the same.  What will happen to the apricots, peaches and others? Only we have to wait .  In the old times the people of the countryside lived in seasonal changes, the summers, and then the autumn in which the nature rests and then the winter in which we need the rain, and all begin again. But just now nothing is sure. Oh well, I made these  apple mini pies. I love apples and especially apple pie!

Original Viennese Applestrudel (Strudel de manzanas)

Many days ago I have the recipe and the photos ready but it was enough that I sit on the computer and began to stiffen and cough. I have a terrible cold. But I found that  spent a lot of time. So here's the recipe: Apple strudel, I love everything with apples and I've made applestrudel  several recipes but I love this. The dough is so good that it was almost so much I rolled  (a very thin dough), but the second time I was more careful. I hope to make other strudel  with cherries soon . I hope you like it as we all  loved here. Note: I have to say I made this strudel  one day and I could not take pictures  !! they ate it at night. Anyway, the next day I went back to do what you see and I was able to take pictures when it was still warm! A big hug to all of you! Adapted from  Little Viena Ingredients strudel dough 1  1/2  tablespoon  neutral tasting vegetable oil 1 teaspoon vinegar  1/8 teaspoon table salt 1 cup more 2 tablespoon...

Apple pie from scratch (pastel de manzanas)

Nothing tastes better than a pie bakes from scratch using fresh ingredients and when you make it you know what are you're eating. I love the aroma, the combination of apples, cinnamon,sugar are the best. You'll love the smell that comes waiting from the kitchen when the apple pie is in the oven, Many people love the combo of lard and butter in the crust but really I think the butter is the best I think tastes better.
