Apple Crisp In A Mason Jar

It’s officially apple time!

I always wait till after Halloween to declare apple everything time. October gets pumpkins… November apples and then December is hot chocolate month. Of course I completely made this all up… but I’m hoping to start a new trend.

Pete, the girls and I are even hoping to do some apple picking this week. We always head up to Julian to pick apples and to have the famous Julian Pie. They are known for serving it with a slice of cheddar cheese on top. I haven’t been brave enough to have it that way. Maybe this will be my year?

Since driving to Julian is an all day thing this is what I will be making this fall when the apple pie craving hits…
