Apple slice?
Again, shortcrust pastry ready made in the store if you don't want to bother making it.

It might be.  All I want to do is learn to make one.

Not easy. The pastry is quite labor intensive, but delicious.
Look for recipes on YouTube.

Appreciate it.  I guess there is a lot of pastry folding.  And making icing.  The apple and raisins and cinnamon I've got.  Though whether to use Golden Delicious or Honeycrisps is a question.

Golden delicious is my favourite.
Peal, core, dice not too small. No need to cook if it goes into the pastry.

"favourite"?  You're British!  No wonder you can cook pastries.

Give that man a medal. Of course I am British.
Well, an immigrant, but now after half a century, and a British passport...

I have recently developed a great fondness for what Safeway calls an "Apple Fritter".  It is a pastry with apple bits, raisins, and cinnamon.  I would like to try making them.  Any suggestions?

I have a fondness for apple fritters myself.

Another sourdough loaf.

I fantasize breaking bread at a Medieval table in a large hall bantering with friends, where bread is the mainstay of the meal.  I mean actually breaking it off in large chunks from a common loaf and slathering it in an excess of butter.  Maybe a bit of goat cheese but mostly just bread, and of course it's hot.  And wine; Wine served by happy maidens pleased to keep my chalice filled, as I award them with pleasantries:  "Thank you, My Dear.  You look lovely."
