ＢｅＬＬｅｓ～　Ｌａ　ＶｉＥ

January is a busy month for work. i finally got some time to bake cakes.i am a BIG fan of apple. cant live without it.i think granny smith apple (i got them from Carefour )is good for baking as it stays crisp, flavorful, hold their shape. when i baked apple pies last time , i used some of granny smith , some of fuji apples.it turned out great!!! 秋冬是蘋果最好吃的季節，之前google蘋果它品種有達上百種，不同點心運用不同蘋果會有不同的滋味！手上有好多蘋果相關的recipes，一直沒實驗~~這次先實驗的是蘋果南瓜蛋糕！Apple pumpkin cake is a traditional dessert for Halloween. well..even Halloween is already passed. this dessert just simply delicious for any occassion :)       

南瓜的鬆軟與蘋果的香甜，搭配出絕佳的口感

上層亦可加上一球香草冰淇淋   serve with Vanilla ice cream feel like in Heaven lol

蘋果煎煮過後的香氣 是非常迷人

蘋果烤後散發出的香氣和口感加上脆皮topping   只能說無懈可擊！

蘋果加熱後，所含果膠的抗氧化能力提升，而且oligo寡糖被分解後，能夠增加好菌滋生，還有豐富鈣質

南瓜的鈣、鐵、維生素及胡蘿蔔素含量較高  多食南瓜可保護眼睛

有效防治高血壓，糖尿病及肝臟病變，提高人體免疫能力

所以  蘋果 + 南瓜= 健康 lol  perfectly matched

南瓜泥與台灣黑糖是最美味的搭配  當然肉桂粉也是重要的配角 才能讓蛋糕整體的口味 大大加分

granny smith apples are very good for baking cakes , breads ...

這種青蘋果非常適合做蘋果派的果餡 或是麵包  有濃濃蘋果酸甜味 （一般蘋果都是甜味比較重，適合新鮮食用）
