no-peeling apple recipes?

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 

So, I've got a bunch of apples and just made some mini pies (muffin pans) and need some other ideas. But, I HATE peeling! Any good recipes that don't require peeling the apples? Oh, and I don't think apples are just for dessert, so any type of recipe is fine!

My favorite apple cake recipe requires no peeling:

4 cups unpeeled diced or chopped apples
2 eggs
2 cups of sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup cooking oil
1 cup chopped nuts, raisins or dates
2 cups of flour
1 tsp salt
2 tsp soda

Place chopped apples in the mixing bowl.  Break eggs over apples and stir.  Add sugar, cinnamon, oil and nuts.  Mix flour with salt and soda then add to the apple mixture. Mix well. Pour into a greased 9 x 13 pan or a greased bundt pan.  Bake at 350 for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. 

You can frost it with a cream cheese frosting or powdered sugar frosting.  At our house we usually do it without frosting.

You can also make apple sauce or apple butter with whole apples, and then rice them to remove peel, and seeds.

How do you "rice" something? I gather it doesn't involve small white grains...

You rice something in a tool that looks like a mini torture device, or in a sieve.  A rice is basically a sieve with a hand cranked blade that pushes the food through, but leaves the rougher material behind.  It can be done by hand, but it is a lot more work.

I have a cheapo one, but these ones came up in a google search.  I think I got mine at Target for about $20.

When I make Apple Crisp I never peel my apples....the peel give the crisp a lot more flavor and it gives it an interesting chew.

Just chop some apples in a pot (about 3 pounds of apples)
Add some sugar (maybe about a cup)
The juice of one lemon
Some spices.... I like cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger
A little water (about 2 cups)

Cook this down until the apples are soft, turn off the heat and add a couple of teaspoons of vanilla and thicken with a few crushed Ritz crackers...(The Ritz crackers give it a WONDERFUL flavor)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and turn apples into a casserole dish

Blend together....

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans....Can sub old fashioned oats but I think the pecans are better
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, melted

Spread over the apples and bake for 45 minutes.

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it. 
Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once!
A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.

Those little hand cranked apple peeler / slicers work really well and fast.
