a strange fruit.
before we moved to texas , i had never heard of a loquat tree.
now i have not one, not two but three of these enormous fruit bearing monsters.
our neighbors had told us they make good jam…. but being a girl on a mission i scoured the internet and found this kinda cool sounding tasty dessert: loquat crunch. personally i am a big fan of the wonderful world of the dessert crumbles from rhubarb to apple… but loquat?
so today i stewed loquats.
i made crumble.
i baked.
….and it did not end there….along these same lines i am ashamed to say i also baked ginger cookies.
i know… but i am craving sweets (my comfort food), stuck at home waiting for ups & also doing a bit of knitting ;-)
happy wednesday everyone!

you are my hero!
have not tried them yet. took a few to the neighbors who grew up with them and seemed excited to try them.
i will let you know. i did not use them with the cookies. they seem to be a pretty good substitute for apricots... ? who knew...
I've never heard of loquats, but they look really tasty all stewed up like that. =D
oh lunaticraft...
i admit the note:

...might possibly be untrue...

i will let you know! (but they do look good!)
Yummy! The mix alone looked delish. How did they taste?
