My neighbor, Ella, recently asked if I had a good recipe for apple bars; her friend Erika has been searching for one. I didn’t know of one offhand, but after looking online, came up with a few I found appetizing. I can’t wait to try some of these out myself; I may even try combining a few. I love the idea of trying to incorporate cheddar cheese into a recipe as well; I’ll have to look into it. Thanks to my dear friend Marney, I can never think of apple pie without cheese. It would be fun to try out different varieties of cheese as well; I think Havarti would work well paired alongside apples and a shortbread crust.
