Recipe? What's That?

I don't bake because I don't like following a recipe.  I cook because you don't NEED a recipe.  You might not be able to "recreate" that delicious meal you just served BUT you didn't have to measure and "stress" either, so it's a "catch 22 situation" if you ask me.

I discovered you CAN bake without a recipe and not have a total disaster and failure as the final product. Impressed?  I sure was...


I bought a big bag of Red Delicious apples a while back and when I went to put them in the fruit bowl EIGHT were almost rotten...I was choked!  Fresh fruit is expensive, as I am sure you will all agree.  I had them sitting on the counter for a few hours....I just couldn't bring myself to throw them out!

I carried on with my regular morning routine and when the kids went down for a nap, I thought; "Apple Crumble"!  It was like a light came and shinned down on me...dramatic...I know BUT I don't bake.   I NEVER think about baking.  I did a quick search on the Internet only to find out I didn't have TWO of the main ingredients to make an Apple Crumble.
1. Rolled Oats
2. Flour

I had a coffee, pondered the whole "EIGHT Almost Rotten Apples" situation and remembered that my husband went through an "instant oatmeal" phase a few months ago. (It only lasted a few days because he discovered that he doesn't like the instant oatmeal that comes in different flavors.) Off to "work" I went...sans a recipe!

And I created THIS!!



It tastes A LOT better than it looks....I Swear!!  LOL

 

Ok, so it's not like baking cookies or a cake BUT STILL....I'm Impressed With Myself...LOL!

Happy Monday Ladies :)
