Cooking and Baking with Apples, Part 1

By savvyjulie Sep 24, 2011

I love going apple picking in the fall. It allows me to spend plenty of time in the sunshine and crisp fall air, either alone or with family and friends, and I come home with plenty of delicious fruit. Most orchards only charge you for the cost of the apples you pick, making this a very affordable weekend outing. Plus, you can usually get a cup of fresh cider or a warm cider doughnut when you’re done. Just think of it as a reward (a very delicious reward) for all of your hard apple-picking work.

Not sure what to do with all those apples once you get home? No worries, I and other food bloggers have plenty of suggestions for you!

First up, the sweet recipes. The apple pies, breads and cakes. Next time, we’ll look at the savory applications.

I love making desserts with apples because they always seem to disappear faster than other desserts.

I make apple jelly and applesauce every year. I had never had store bought jelly until college and I still hate the stuff. So everyday with a days worth of work my family can enjoy the good stuff!

Baked apples are the best! When they are too soft too eat, toss them in a pot, add a can of (diet) soda, lots of cinnamin and BAKE!! They smell amazing, are easy to make and delicious to eat. I core them before I put them in and I leave the skin on. Can also toss in raisins, peaches, plums; whatever. Enjoy!
