Foodie Friday: Take A Bite Of 21 Juicy Apple Recipes


Apple Season is in full swing these first days of Autumn.  Watermelon and strawberries are being replaced by these all American beauties. They are juicy, colorful, and taste great served in both sweet and savory recipes. With cooler temps, isn't it time to pick, peel and prepare some apples?

Sip. Savor. Repeat. Shop the NEW Wine & Cheese Collection from Le Creuset!


Roasted Sweet Potato and Apple Soup 
Now this just says Fall, to me. Served with nutmeg, homemade crispy baked beet chips, and dry apricot-hazelnut bread. Wow!
Melangery


Green Appletinis 
Get ready to pucker up with this incredibly easy cocktail. A great signature drink at your next Fall party.

Cross Buns
These beautiful buns would play big in my household any time of the year! I must say the recipe looks a bit difficult but fun.

Maple-Glazed Apple-Chicken Sausage Bites
Sensational simplicity! These perfect bites are just an adorable appetizer. Great for tailgating!
Noble Pig


Apple Pecan Skillet Cake with Dulce de Leche Glaze
Layered with a moist pecan and Kahlúa flavored buttery cake, this qualifies as a pie, since it is cooked in a crust. Whatever it is, this dessert sure takes the cake!
Parade


Peanut Butter-Stuffed Gourmet Caramel Apples
Oh My! The core has been removed and the apple filled with a peanut butter filling. Delish!
Mississippi Kitchen


Apple Crostata with Cheddar Crust
Cheddar in the pie dough and fresh apples in the filling give this dessert a rustic charm.

Prosciutto-Wrapped Pork Loin with Roasted Apples
This makes my little pork dish I am making tonight look like kibble! I cannot wait to try this beautiful recipe!
Bon Appetit


Cider Poached Apples
Candied walnuts, rum cream and a cider syrup all complete the deconstructed apple pie.


Apple Bacon Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Oh my goodness, finally a new way to make sweets! With killer ingredients like sage, goat cheese, bacon and apples, these have got to be fabulous!


Fruit Leather
Remember Fruit roll ups? The kids love them and adults, too! Imagine how much better the homemade variety would be? Here are 5 recipes. Think, pumpkin, lavender, raspberry, spice and elderberry.


Apple Omelet With Cheddar And Thyme
What a fabulous brunch idea.


Apple Sandwiches
Here's a way to get the kids (or yourself) to have an apple a day! So simple and healthy!


Brie + Cheddar Apple Beer Soup
I have had beer and cheddar soup before, but it never looked like this. Must be the added apples, pecans and oats! This is a must make!


Apple Pie For One Or Two
When a whole pie just is too much, this pie in a mug is very special. Bakes in 20 minutes!


Apple Upside Down Cake, Gluten Free
This dairy free dessert is made with gluten-free challah, apples and honey. Looks yummy!


Raisin Crostini With Blue Cheese And Apples
I love to serve Crostini as an appetizer. If made with interesting ingredients like this, they are the perfect bite. Easy to assemble.


Caramel Apple-Brie Crêpe Parcels
These are just the cutest little bundles of love. Warm brie, apples and caramel? What a slice of heaven. 


Apple Donuts With Caramel
And this recipe is for Mr. Shop This.


Salted Caramel Apple Pie
A classic kicked up a notch with caramel, salt and gooey cinnamon apples.
