10 Apple Recipes You Will Want to Try this Fall
Fall is here, and nothing says cozy quite like apples. From warm, spiced desserts to savory dishes that bring out the best of the season, apples are one of the most versatile ingredients to cook with. I’ve rounded up ten delicious recipes that will fill your kitchen with those crisp autumn flavors we all love.
Cinnamon Sugar Apple Cake
A cozy cake that feels like fall in every bite, this soft apple dessert is topped with a crunchy cinnamon-sugar crust. It’s the kind of bake that works just as well for a casual weekend treat as it does for a fall gathering with friends.
Slow Cooker Apple Butter
Made in the slow cooker, this apple butter fills your home with the best fall aroma while it simmers down to a rich, spreadable treat. Delicious on toast, biscuits, or swirled into oatmeal.
Apple Cinnamon Crumb Muffins
These might be the best apple muffins I’ve ever had. The crumble on top is optional, but with that and the icing, it feels like a real indulgence. If Apple isn’t your flavor of choice there are multiple other ideas linked in the recipe.
Savory Apple Thyme Tart
Apple recipes seems to be synonymous with desserts so I wanted to make sure to include some savory recipes too. This Savory Apple Tart recipe features thyme, caramelized onions and gruyere cheese. A wonderful vegetarian meal, especially when served alongside a simple green salad.
Easy Apple Cider
Is there anything better on a crisp fall day than the scent of apple cider warming your home? This recipe is wonderfully simple and packed with tips to make your cider turn out just right.
Caramel Apple Cheesecake Bars
Full disclosure, I have not made these but I have made many recipes from this blog and they are all amazing and when I saw that picture, I couldn’t NOT include it! The reviews are unanimous, these bars are absolutely delicious.
Apple Pancakes
This heavenly apple pancake is perfect for a weekend brunch. Unlike a typical pancake, it has a rich, custardy texture that's delicious with powdered sugar on top.
Brussels Sprout, Apple + Pomegranate Salad
Perfect for a potluck and dinner at home this salad is bright and packed with flavor. If you read through the authors note in the recipe, its very easily adaptable to your tastes or what you have on hand.

Honey, Apple, Cheddar, & Bacon Panini
I wanted to include another Savory recipe here and I thought this one was perfect for a quick lunch or paired with a yummy tomato soup for dinner. You could try this soup recipe.
Brown Butter Apple Tart
From the recipe author: Here, a buttery and lightly sweetened pastry crust is filled with a brown butter custard and topped with beautifully sliced apples. Slices are best served warm with a little ice cream, whipped cream, or creme anglais, but they’re wonderful as is, too.
