earlier tonight i sent ang a text that went something like this:
"this is the place where all good kitchen experiments should start."
and lo and behold! i was right! i started out with a simple pumpkin pie (canned pumpkin, condensed milk, sub agave and maple syrup for sugar, spices, ya know, the basics) and came up with this: (err, i realized a little too late that i dont have any real pie pans. so i improvised.)
its still in the oven, on a little lower temp than normal, and im hoping the crust doesnt burn before the inside is done...we'll see. but i do have a backup plan for the rest of the batch of filling.
then, the further into the glass of wine i got, the more inspired i became to try something different. i took pie filling, and added some stuff - cream cheese, ricotta cheese, raisins, almond flour, flaxseed meal, coconut and made it into a batter/dough. then i rolled it into balls (i only made five) and rolled them in sesame seeds. the first experimental batch is in the oven. fingers crossed.
now we wait and see!
