This past weekend I was bit by the baking bug. I just can't help it! Fall is here and it's time to start perfecting some recipes for all the holidays! Last year I was on a quest to find the perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie reciepe, and I've found a pretty good one.
I decided to bake an apple cobbler this weekend. I was hoping to find a quick and easy recipe using Bisquick so I would be able to make it often. Since my dad is a diabetic, I used Splenda for baking in these recipes. Not only does this make them basically sugar free, but it also lowers the calories by a ton!
My first attempt was very easy, it had just a few ingredients. It was basically like a pot pie with apples and cinnamon inside.
While everyone said this was tastey, I was not impressed. The topping was kinda soft and basically flavorless.
In my second attempt, I decided to try an Apple Crisp. I thought a crispy topping would taste better. So I made Aunt Lillian's Apple Crisp Recipe. Again I used both Splenda Blend and Splenda Brown Sugar for this.
This was a hit! Everyone loved it and it was gone in a day! I can promise you it doesn't taste "sugar free" or "healtly".
