Streusel Apple Pie Hemp Bread
Chef Notes: Fall is here already and apples are displaying a collage of color and taste in our produce area. Apples are great in apple pie but it's sometimes too cumbersome to make. But, you can still eat apple pie without a pie crust and still enjoy the aroma and taste of the real apple pie. This streusel recipe isn't too difficult or intimidating even for the novice. I just tweaked this recipe a bit by adding hemp for more protein. It's so good and quick to make. Chef Jyoti
