The Mothership

My kids and I went apple picking with some friends and came home with soo many apples. I don't even know all the kinds because the kids were lke squirrels hopping from one row of apple trees to the next. My kids eat apples at an alarming rate so they each brought home a full 2 pound bag. I wanted to make something that the kids would enjoy and settled on this. I added protein powder to it, because, I figured if my kids are gonna eat baked goods, it might as well have an extra boost to it. When you see that you have to peel, core and chop the apples, don't be scared. Take your potato peeler and get rid of the peel. Cut around the core, and then chop the flesh.

Stir in apple bits. Let cook until the apples are tender. While apples are cooking, in a separate bowl mix/beat the pumpkin, 3 eggs, milk, honey, and vanilla until well mixed. Take cinnamon rolls...
