What can be made from apples. Second courses and desserts
In harvest years, it is not possible to eat all the apples from your own garden, even if all relatives and neighbors share the meal. But you can cook a variety of dishes from them, ranging from banal jam to traditional goose with apples. These fruits can be fermented, pickled, baked, dried, added to meat dishes, salads and even soups. They make wonderful alcoholic drinks: cider and calvados.
Second courses
When we think about what to cook from apples, the first dish that comes to mind is goose baked with apples. To make it, you will need a goose carcass, sour apples like semirinka, garlic, salt and spices to taste. We wash the goose, butcher it, and rub it with garlic, salt, and spices. I also wash the apples, remove the core, and cut into small pieces. We stuff the goose with apples, then sew it up with threads.
Place the bird on a baking sheet greased with oil, cover with halves of apples and place in a preheated oven to 200 degrees. During baking, it is necessary to periodically water the goose and apples with melted fat. The dish will be ready in about three hours, we check the degree of readiness with a toothpick. Any bird can be cooked in the same way, chicken is more often used in Russia, and turkey in America.
Pork and apples are cooked much faster in a slow cooker. A kilogram of pork will require a couple of onions, one carrot and two large apples. Cut the onion into half rings, carrots into cubes and place the vegetables in a slow cooker, pre—watered with vegetable oil. We set the "frying" mode and pass the vegetables until golden brown. Cut the meat into small pieces and add it to the vegetables. When it is lightly browned, switch the slow cooker to the "stewing" mode, add the apples cut into strips, salt to taste and simmer until tender. Thanks to apples, meat gets a pleasant sweet and sour taste. Of course, you can cook pork with apples in regular dishes, but it tastes better in a slow cooker.

Apple charlotte with cinnamon is our most popular pastry using apples. Her recipe is probably known to everyone. Apple strudel is also a popular dish, but it is quite time—consuming and requires a lot of time to prepare. But what a quick strudel you can cook if the guests arrive unexpectedly. You will need a sheet of thin Armenian lavash, one egg, several apples and 50 grams of butter.
Turn on the oven to heat, and in the meantime, cut the apples into small pieces, put them in a small saucepan or saucepan, pour a glass of water and add three tablespoons of sugar. Bring all this to a boil and cook for about five minutes. Then we take out the apple slices, cool them and let the syrup drain. We lubricate the lavash with egg, three butter on a grater and evenly sprinkle the lavash with it, and spread the apples on top so that part of the cake remains free. We roll it all into a roll, put it in the preheated oven for 19 minutes, and the strudel is ready. All that remains is to sprinkle it with powdered sugar, cool it and serve it on the table.
Desserts
The simplest, but very tasty dessert is made from apples with cinnamon. Apples should be freed from the middle, cut into slices and placed in a container for a microwave oven. Top with sugar and cinnamon to taste. We put the container in the microwave for 3-4 minutes, then cool it down a little and the dessert is ready for use. You can add nuts and honey to the apples instead of sugar and cinnamon, and you'll get a completely different dessert, but it's also very tasty. And if you put this dessert in pre-purchased sand baskets, you will get wonderful fruit cakes.
Stuffed apples are very tasty. They take out the middle of them and make a filling of prunes, dried apricots, any berries and fruits. You can use cottage cheese mixed with egg yolk, nuts, sugar and raisins. Then the apples are baked in the microwave or oven, even in a double boiler.
Another popular dessert is apple pastille. To make it, remove the core from the apples and cut them into slices. Put them in a saucepan or slow cooker, add a couple tablespoons of water and cook until they become soft, 10-15 minutes. Next, mash the resulting mass using a blender or a conventional masher. Add vanilla, cinnamon and powdered sugar to taste, put on fire, and cook, stirring constantly, until a thick homogeneous mass is obtained. The resulting mass is spread in a thin layer on a pre-greased profile and dried in the oven at a temperature of 100 degrees. Cut the finished pastille into strips.
