What type of recipes can I make out of these fruit?
My dad decide to do a bit of shopping today and he brought back a lot of quantity of red apples, oranges, plums, peach's, bananas, and green grapes. With so many type of fruits and a lot of them, it just way to many of them to keep around mostly.
So I suggested to my family that we should make some kind of recipe, food, or dessert out of the fruit, the only problem is, what recipe?
Can anyone suggest what type of food I can create out of these fruit? I will be happy with whatever recipe you suggest, even if the recipe contain one fruit.
( such like just saying apply pie, but please don't suggest that XD )
lol I meant Apple pie, but you know what I mean.
Thanks everyone, I'm going to try some of the recipes before I make my decision on best answer ^.^

Well, you could use them all in a fine fruit salad, made out of 2 of each fruit and then dressed with a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of sugar and a bit of orange juice and tossed together. That would be delicious. 2 Bananas can be mashed with a cup of peanut butter for a good sandwich spread; these are especially good spread on both sides with butter and pan grilled. You can add bacon to these. You can cube 6 peaches and put them in a large pot with a good pinch of salt, 1/2 c. brown sugar, 1/2 t. cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. ginger, 1/2 t. cardamom and about 1/4 cup water and cook them over low heat until you have a nice looking chutney to serve with pork chops or chicken or fish. You can also cube the peaches and toss with an equal amount of diced white onion, juice of 1 large lime, and 1/4 c. cilantro, chopped, for salsa to serve with grilled chicken or fish. The grapes are GREAT frozen; they taste like little tiny sorbets. You can make the same chutney using the plums, and the plums can be baked in a little red wine and sugar to serve over vanilla ice cream for dessert. You can let the peaches ripen and puree them and freeze in ice cube trays and use in iced tea or punch or alcoholic beverages including sparkling white wine. The red apples, unless they're fairly crisp and tart and not mealy, aren't much use for anything but the first fruit salad; they will not make a good pie, cobbler, or sauce apple. You could try cubing them and tossing 4 apples with 4 stalks chopped celery, 1/2 c. rraisins, 1/3 c. toasted chopped walnuts and about 1/2 c. mayo for Waldorf salad; add a dash of lemon juice and a little pinch of salt to correct this.

I have a question... Did you buy it from a concession of the fair or from the cooking/baking contest area - where individuals bring in their best recipes to compete against other area cooks/bakers? This matters because if it was from the contest section, the recipe is likely brand new - the concoction of someone who lives for winning a ribbon at the fair. In that event, there's no telling. However, as I've seen most people are leaning toward an ambrosia and waldorf variation, without success. That's where I would have gone, too. I too, do the fair contest thing - and sweets are my category. So although none of these recipes are an exact match, perhaps one will be a close second for you? #1 1 (14 ounce) can EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk 2 cup plain yogurt 1/4 C lime juice 2 C green grapes, halved 2 C white miniature marshmallows 2 C cubed McIntosh apples (not diced) 1 C chopped walnuts In large bowl, combine EAGLE BRAND®, yogurt, lime juice; mix well. Stir in remaining ingredients. Chill 2 to 3 hours to blend flavors. If desired, serve in chilled dessert bowl. Refrigerate any leftovers. #2 3 C cubed McIntosh apples (not diced) 1/2 C apple juice 2 C green grapes, halved 1 cup chopped walnuts 1 cups miniature marshmallows 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream 1/4 C pure maple syrup In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients except sour cream, until well blended. Then fold in the sour cream. Chill for at least an hour, and stir again before serving. Garnish with a sprinkle of maple sugar. #3 6 McIntosh apples, pared 2 C cold water 3 T lemon juice, fresh 1 C tiny marshmallows 1/4 C mayonnaise 1 C heavy cream, whipped 1/2 C chopped walnuts Core pared apples and cubed. Soak in cold water 15 minutes, then pat dry and sprinkle with lemon juice. Combine apple cubes, marshmallows and mayonnaise. Fold in whipped cream. Just before serving, add nuts. None of these are in any cookbook that I know of.

Actually the apples will keep for weeks in the fridge. Keep 2-3 peaches and plums out on the counter for healthy snacking.
Keep everything else in the fridge they should last at least a week.
If you have left overs after that make peach or plumb crisps. Make chciken salad and cut the grapes in 1/2 and add them to tthe chicken salad.

Fruit salad with the oranges, peaches, plums and bananas and grapes.
Apple, plum or peach crumbles.
Banana vanilla pudding with Nilla wafers(Too easy - one box of Nilla wafers, one large package of Vanilla pudding mix made up with milk and 4 or 5 bananas and one large punch bowl or 5 or 6 or 7 soup bowls. Layer the sliced bananas with the cookies and the pudding in the bowls. GAze fondly at the hard work and eat. Use one banana for 2 servings.
Bananas Madras: Melt 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup butter and the juice of 4 oranges with 1 teaspoon curry powder over medium heat in a non stick skillet. Peel and slice lengthwise 1 banana per person and gently cook for 4 minutes in the sauce. Place a scoop of ice cream in each dessert bowl and top with the sauced bananas. MMMMMM.
Waldorf salad with the apples, grapes and some celery and chopped walnuts and mayonaise.
Peach or plum pie or cobbler ( cook fruit with a bit of sugar and put into greased baking dish, cover with biscuit dough and bake at 375ºF until the dough is golden brown on top. Serve with ice cream!
Apple dumplings. - Pie dough wrapped around each cored apple with some brown sugar, nuts and cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice & or nutmeg inside each apple. Baked for 45 minutes at 375ºF until they are golden brown and soft. A package of pie dough for a double crust pie should be sufficient to individually cover 6 apples.
Have fun. Eat the fruit raw too.

cut the apple into bite size pieces, peal the orange and cut it too. add a sliced banana and a couple cut up plums, grapes and a peach if you like. toss with about 3 tablespoons of sugar and 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon let sit in the fridge for several hours and then toss with about 2 tablespoons of Miracle Whip or mayo and serve on a lettuce leaf for a great salad with baked chicken or other meat.
you can add chopped walnuts if you like.
