Welcome to my recipe collection.

These recipes offer a delicious mix of new and old world flavors. From the kitchens of my mother and grandmother in Transylvania to the new fusion mixes from my home kitchen in Canada. I have been inspired by the fickle tastes of my children ( vegetarian, pescatarian or whichever way the wind may blow) and my desire to become healthier without compromising taste. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I have enjoyed writing it. Leave me comments and your favorite recipes!

NICO'S EASY BREEZY YUMMY CRUMBLE


5 or 6 apples
Maple syrup
1/3 cup butter
10 tablespoons brown sugar
10 tablespoons flour
Walnuts

1) cut the apples in quarters and put them in a buttered pan
2) spread some maple syrup on top, be generous maple syrup is healthy and good for you
3) do the crumble part mixing the flour, the sugar and the butter all together until you get a crumbly consistency. Like a crumbled shortbread biscuit forgotten at the bottom of a school bag ! Add the walnuts at the end of this very complicated process !
4) put your crumble on the apples ! Oh my goodness, this is the really hard part!
5) in the oven between 20 and 30 mn 400°F depending on the power of your oven. Ours is especially tricky.
6) you can serve warm with vanilla ice cream and if it is not rich enough for you, you can add some maple syrup on top or maple caramel as well. But then you would have to nap or go to the gym !
Enjoy ;-)
