Adapted from the 1995 American Country Inn and Bed Breakfast Cookbook, recipe from the Anchuca Clarion Carriage House, Vicksburg, VA recipe for Georges on York Bed & Breakfast, Taneytown, MD.

Serving guests the best of seasonal dishes means we get to use fresh, locally sourced ingredients in the Georges on York B&B kitchen. In the fall and winter, this is a favorite fruit course that hits all the senses: smells like fall, tastes like comfort, and feels like a big hug! We hope you enjoy a little Georges on York breakfast with your friends and family at home.
