Baked Brie in Cranberry Sauce

Continuing my theme of apples and cranberries for the day (and all measures are still approximate):

2 cups flour
1 egg
1 tsp salt
water
1 can cranberry sauce
1 wedge of Brie
1 granny smith apple


1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F
2. Combine the flour, egg, and salt in a mixing bowl. Add water in increments and knead, until the dough forms a smooth but not sticky ball.
3. Roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness, then line a greased/floured oven-safe dish with it
4. Pour the cranberry sauce into the dough and make into a bed
5. Place the Brie in the bed
6. Cut and peel the apple, and layer on the cheese and in the sauce.
7. Bake until Brie is soft and crust is cooked, ~ 20 minutes. Don't quote me on this, watch the cheese. Serve warm.



Note: Next time I do this, I will probably try pre-cooking the crust, then turning the oven down to 175 F to heat the cheese.

Cranberry Apple Pie Oatmeal

Again with the disclaimer: All measures are incredibly approximate, because I don't measure.



5 Granny Smith Apples
1 Mackintosh Apple (It was just lying around)
1/2 package of fresh cranberries
1 cup raisons
3 tablespoons cinnamon
1 tablespoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon ginger
1 cup oatmeal
1 cup multi-grain hot cereal (I didn't have enough oatmeal)
2 cups evaporated milk
4 cups water


1. Core and peel the apples. Cut into bite size chunks.
2. Add cranberries, apples, and raisons into bottom of slow cooker.
3. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Toss to coat.
4. Pour the oatmeal and multi-grain on top of the fruit.
5. Pour the milk/water over the oatmeal, so that the liquid level just reaches the top of the oatmeal
6. Turn the slow cooker on high and cook until its done (to be updated how long it actually takes, ~4 hours)


Update: I forgot to add sugar. Add sugar. It needs it. Or brown sugar. Or Maple syrup. Or molasses. Anything. It doesn't need much, but it does need some.
