Hello Foodie Friends!  

I had a great time this afternoon with my travel buddy Alesia with “I Book Travel For U” .

If you have been following us on Mondays, you know we travel “virtually” to a state and share fun facts, travel tips, and foodie finds.  Because most Mondays I have a sample of something I whipped up to replicate a food on my list.  Today was no exception!  

We visited the “Green Mountain State” of Vermont and learned that they are more than just maple syrup and cheese.  Vermont’s state fruit – the apple- is the star in this delicious crisp recipe that has a little twist. 

In my research on the top foods of the state, the first food to pop up was apple pie. But not just any kind of apple pie- one with cheddar cheese in it! Since Vermont-aged cheddar has been recognized as among the best in the world, I could see why folks would want to toss a little into their pie. 

I decided I wasn’t in the mood to make a pie, but I went the easier route and did a crisp. 

It took about 15 mins to prep, and 25 minutes to bake. Warm and fresh from the oven is the best way to serve this dessert.  Add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream for an extra indulgent treat!
