Apple picking season is one of the best times of the year. Find a new favorite apple pie recipe below or try something brand new!
Nothing is more American than apple pie, but apples have become one of the most popular fruits around the world. Apples are great on their own, but in dessert recipes, they shine. They can turn a pie from bland to stellar and a cake from simple to out-of-this-world. These 15 Easy Apple Recipes are the best and the easiest copycat apple recipes around from all of your favorite restaurants and cafes.
One of the most essential fall activities is apple picking! But if you've ever been, you know how hard it can be to come up with different ways to use your perfect apples. Don't worry; there are plenty of easy apple recipes to be shared. Start with something familiar, like pie, and work your way up from there. Get baking, and soon your whole house will smell like autumn!
Of course, there's nothing stopping you from breaking these recipes out any time of year. Some apple desserts just have that fall flavor too perfectly locked in, but who says a classic pie can't rock your world in the heat of July or that you can't enjoy a delicious dessert bar in the dead of winter? Whatever time of year, it's the perfect time to treat yourself.
