Apple Pickers #2
Logic Grid puzzles come with a handy interactive grid that will help you solve the puzzle based on the given clues.
Since Jeremy and his friends now had more apples than they could possibly eat, they needed to find ways to use them up. So each friend hit the cookbooks and started busily baking (it's remarkable how many yummy recipes there are for apples!). As it happens, each friend did such a good job making one recipe, that it was forever after their specialty. Fortunately for them, each one had a different specialty. Determine the name of each friend's special recipe, the type of apples and special ingredient each dish used, and the number of apples each recipe used.
1. The recipes, in no particular order, were the recipe using cinnamon, the recipe using three apples, the apple tarts, the recipe using Macoun apples, and the apple crisp.
2. The recipe using the Cortland apples used one apple more than the apple bread but one apple less than the recipe using the raisins.
3. The muffins used one more apple than the recipe with the walnuts but two less apples than the recipe using the Red Delicious apples.
4. The nutmeg was used in the apple crisp, which used more than two apples but less than the apple pie used. The apple pie used more apples than the treat with the raisins.
5. The apple muffins, which weren't made with Macoun apples, used pecans.
6. The Empire apples weren't used in the apple crisp. The recipe using the McIntosh apples used the most apples.
HintThere were four Empire apples used with the raisins.

| I cracked it! But only with the hint... also the only way I figured apple pie has cinnamon was the recipe of traditional apple pie!  |

| I finally solved it, but I feel as though I've been put in an apple turnover! My brain now doesn't have one apple less than it never did! Good one!  |

| Good Job!!! I think that this one was easier than the first one, though. I did not need the hint.  |

| I totally got this wrong, but then, I again was doing a grid instead of feeding my hungry self. Note to self: eat before trying to think.
I'm gonna try this again once my soup is done in two hours.
Was fun, even though I messed up! |

| Fun! Didn't need the hint, but did need a piece of paper to quickly writ them all out. Sometimes the grid isn't flexible enough for me. |

| That was fun. I was able to do it without the hint, but needed to write notes on paper to help. I found it fun and challenging.  |
