I was just glancing through the new KA catalog and found this recipe: County Fair Caramel Apple Bars Caramel and apple is always a winning combination. These bars, cut in 3" squares and topped with ice cream, make a delicious plated dessert. Cut smaller, they pack nicely in your lunchbox. Crust 1 cup (2 sticks, 8 ounces) unsalted butter 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 3/4 cup (5 5/8 ounces) brown sugar, firmly packed 1 cup (4 ounces) confectioners' sugar or glazing sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 3/4 cups (11 1/2 ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour 1 cup (3 1/4 ounces) nut flour* 1 large egg Filling 4 to 5 medium tart apples, peeled, cored, and sliced, then chopped (about 5 cups, about 20 ounces prepared) 2 tablespoons (7/8 ounce) brown sugar 2 tablespoons (1 ounce) boiled cider, or substitute an additional 2 tablespoons brown sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon Topping** 1 cup (10 ounces) caramel, from a block, or about 30 caramel candies 2 1/2 tablespoons (1 1/4 ounces) milk or cream *Almond (toasted or plain), hazelnut flour (toasted or plain), and pecan meal are all good choices. Or grind 1 cup nuts in a food processor; be sure to stop before the mixture becomes pasty. **Or use our prepared caramel sauce. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9" x 13" pan or 10" x 10" bun pan. To make the crust: Beat together the butter, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, sugars, and vanilla till smooth. Add the flours, mixing till crumbly. Set aside half the mixture (about 3 generous cups, 15 ounces); add the egg to the remainder, beating to combine. Press the crust with egg into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake the crust for 17 minutes, till it's barely starting to brown around the edges. While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. To make the filling: Slice the apples about 1/4" thick, then chop into 1/2" to 3/4" pieces. An apple peeler/corer/slicer gives you a great head start on this task. Combine the apples with the remaining filling ingredients, and distribute over the crust. Spread the reserved crust mixture over the apples. Bake the bars for 45 minutes. Remove them from the oven, and after 15 minutes cut them into squares, leaving them in the pan. Cool completely, then place the bars on a rack set over a piece of parchment. To make the topping: Place the caramel and milk in a microwave-safe measuring cup, and heat till the caramel is very soft. Stir (reheating if necessary) till the mixture is smooth and pourable. Drizzle it over the bars. Yield: 16 to 24 bars. Michelle

Loves2: Here is one using Yeast Recipe Rate & Review Related Recipes Cranberry-Pecan Bread Recipe by Maggie Glezer Cranberry-Pecan Bread Recipe by Maggie Glezer Delicious, Quick Side Dishes Buzz up! Cranberry-Pecan Bread ACTIVE: 1 HR TOTAL TIME: 6 HRS plus overnight rising SERVINGS: makes two 2-pound loaves HEALTHYMAKE-AHEADVEGETARIANIngredients 3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for kneading 3 1/3 cups white whole wheat flour, preferably King Arthur brand 1 tablespoon instant dry yeast 4 teaspoons fine table salt 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries (7 ounces) 2 cups pecan halves (7 ounces) Vegetable oil Directions 1.In a bowl, combine both flours with the yeast. Add 3 1/4 cups of warm water and stir until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too stiff, add 2 more tablespoons of warm water. Let the dough rest for 15 minutes. 2.Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead and work the dough until smooth but still very sticky, about 5 minutes. Flatten the dough and sprinkle it with the salt; knead until the salt is evenly incorporated, about 5 minutes. The dough will tighten slightly. Flatten the dough and scatter the cranberries and pecans on top. Fold the dough over the fruit and nuts and knead them in. Lightly oil the bowl, add the dough and turn to coat. Cover and let stand until doubled in volume, about 2 hours. 3.Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper; brush with oil. Punch down the dough, then cut into 2 pieces. Flatten each piece of dough into a 10-inch oval. Fold in the short ends as you would a billfold and pinch the ends. Pat the dough into a 9-inch oval loaf; transfer to one of the baking sheets, seam side down. Repeat to form the second loaf. Lightly brush 2 pieces of plastic wrap with oil and loosely cover the loaves. Refrigerate overnight. 4.Uncover the loaves; let stand at room temperature for 2 hours, until slightly risen. Using a knife, make a 1/2-inch-deep slash down the length of each loaf. 5.Preheat the oven to 400°. Bake the loaves for about 40 minutes, shifting the baking sheets halfway through. The loaves are done when they're browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 170°. Transfer the loaves to a rack and let cool before slicing. ************************* Here is one from Emeril that sounds good !!! Ingredients 1/2 cup orange flavored liqueur 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup water 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves 1 cinnamon stick, halved 1 1/2 cups fresh cranberries (or defrosted if frozen) 3/4 cup dark brown sugar 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature 2 large eggs 2 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon salt 3/4 cup buttermilk 1/4 cup fresh orange juice 1 cup chopped, toasted pecans 1 teaspoon orange zest 1 teaspoon vanilla Directions In a saucepan, combine the orange liqueur, sugar, water, cloves, and cinnamon stick and bring to a boil. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Add the cranberries. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the berries burst, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the berries cool in the liquid. Remove the cinnamon stick and cloves and discard. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9 1/4 by 5 1/4 by 2 1/2-inch loaf pan. In a mixer bowl, using the mixer on high speed (or using a hand mixer), cream the sugar and butter. Add the eggs and beat until light and fluffy. Into a bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk and orange juice. Alternately add the dry ingredients and buttermilk mixture to the creamed butter, beating after the addition of each. Fold in the reserved cranberry mixture, pecans, orange zest and vanilla. Pour into the prepared loaf pan. Bake until a tester comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature. (Can be made ahead. Wrap tightly and store at room temperature 1 day or freeze for up to 2 weeks.) LOU

Found this on Google. I think I would be a little leery using "boiling" hot water, maybe that is just to dissolve it and you can let it cool down a little. Ingredients 1 quart boiling water 5 tablespoons vinegar 2 tablespoons salt (regular table salt) Directions 1Boil water. 2Add vinegar and salt. 3Pour HOT liquid on weeds and grass to be killed. 4(be careful because if the water runs on top of the soil it's gonna kill whatever it touches!).
