In an ongoing series of Youtube videos taped by her grandson, Christopher Cannucciari, 94 year old Clara shares recipes and tips that show how people cooked during The Great Depression, in the hope of providing culinary inspiration for those who’ve only read about the time in history books.
Like my own late Italian grandmother, Clara is passionate about food and the ways one can use it to bring people closer together.
Just in time for fall, below is her new video recipe for Cinnamon Baked Apples, a delicious and easy dessert that captures the flavors of Autumn.
You can see her How to Make Cinnamon Baked Apples Video below. Enjoy!
If you’d like to find out more about Clara, you can see Clara’s online bio here. Clara has also just joined Twitter and invites her many fans to follow her.
Her new book, Clara’s Kitchen: Wisdom, Memories, and Recipes from the Great Depression is available on Amazon here.
Here’s a link to Clara’s Great Depression Cooking Channel on Youtube that started it all.
