½ cup blackcurrant jam
1-2 Tbsp butter
2 ½ cups apples, chopped into 1” pieces
4 eggs
½ cup half-and-half
½ tsp ground cloves
½ tsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp maple syrup
Preheat oven to 325 ° F.
Butter a pie tin and spread the blackcurrant jam over the bottom.
Boil apple pieces in water until soft. Drain apples, and puree with the half-and-half, making it as smooth as possible. Beat the pureed mixture with the eggs, maple syrup, and spices. Pour into the pie tin over the jam.
Bake for 45-60 minutes, until the custard is set and a knife or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool before serving.

Makes just under 1 quart.
2 lb damson plums, pitted and cut in half
1 cup honey or mixed honey and pure maple syrup
¼ cup finely grated apple, raw and unpeeled
In a large pot, combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil over low heat, stirring frequently. When it becomes soupy, increase heat and bring to a full boil.
Stir slowly as it cooks for 15 to 20 minutes. It will thicken and darken. Try to get it up to 220° F. (Higher elevations will not get the temperature up that high, so do your best.)
Pour into prepared canning jars, giving at least ¼ inch of headspace. Seal and process for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath, or 20 minutes at high elevation.

Filling:
5 ½ to 6 cups cored, diced pears
1 ½ Tbsp cornstarch
1/8 tsp salt
¼ cup maple syrup
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp finely grated lemon zest
2 Tbsp minced candied ginger or ½ tsp ground ginger
Topping:
2/3 cup flour
¾ cup rolled oats
¼ cup packed brown sugar
¼ tsp salt
6 Tbsp cold butter
Heat the oven to 400°. Place the diced pears in a large bowl, sprinkle the cornstarch over them, and stir well. Add the remaining filling ingredients and toss gently, until the mixture is evenly combined.
Put the filling into deep-dish pie tin and smooth the top of the fruit. Bake for 45 minutes.
While it's baking, make the topping. Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut in the butter until you have large crumbs. Refrigerate the topping until you are ready to use it.
Lower the oven temperature to 375°. Remove the fruit from the oven and carefully pour the crumbs in the center of the pan, then spread them evenly. Return the crumble to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

2 ½ cups chopped plums, pitted
2 medium apples, cored and chopped
½ cup blackberries
½ cup spiced apple cider
1 cup flour
2 Tbsp brown sugar
pinch of salt
¼ cup butter
¼ cup cream cheese
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Combine the fruit and place in an 8” baking pan or pie tin. Pour ¼ cup cider over it.
Stir together the flour, brown sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter and cream cheese until it is all crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over the fruit, then sprinkle the remaining cider over the top.
Bake for 45-55 minutes.
Sauce:
½ cup sour cream
½ cup nut milk
¼ cup pure maple syrup
Whisk together and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

½ cup sugar
½ cup maple syrup or corn syrup
½ cup butter
½ Tbsp vinegar
1 egg
1 tsp ground black pepper
½ tsp ground allspice
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp ground nutmeg
½ tsp baking soda
2 ½ cups flour
Cook the sugar, maple/corn syrup, butter and vinegar in a pot over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and it boils. Pour into a bowl and chill down to room temperature. Beat in all the other ingredients. It will make a smooth paste.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and freeze for 20 minutes or chill longer. It rolls out much easier when it is hard/cold.
Preheat oven to 350° F, and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
On a floured surface, roll the dough to about ¼” thick, then cut out shapes. Place them in the baking sheet with about 1” in between, because they do expand a little.
Bake for 7 minutes. (If they are thicker, or the pan is too crowded, they will require a few more minutes.) They should be slightly golden brown around the edges and look puffed up. Let them repose on the baking sheet until they are relaxed and more cool, then transfer cookies to a cooling rack. They should be thin and hard enough to snap, but slightly chewy when eating.
Makes about 36 cookies.

2 tsp yeast
2 tsp sugar, brown sugar, honey, molasses, or maple syrup
1 cup warm water
1 cup warm milk or nut milk
4 Tbsp butter
1 ½ cups rolled oats
¾ cup chopped nuts (optional)
3 tsp salt
3 cups flour
In a large bowl, combine yeast, sugar, and warm water.
When the yeast becomes foamy, stir in the warm milk and butter. Stir in the oats, then the nuts if using, then the salt. Stir in the flour one cup at a time.
Knead the dough, using more flour as necessary, until the dough is relatively smooth, not sticky, and resistant. Coat the dough with oil, place in a large oiled bowl, and cover it with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes.
Knead the dough gently and form into a smooth loaf. Place in a bread pan. Coat the top of the dough with oil and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Let rise for 30-40 minutes. Preheat oven to 350° F. Bake for 1 hour.
