Apple Recipes – What to do with apples! 50 of the most mouthwatering apple recipes, including desserts, Crockpot recipes, preserving and canning, and more delicious ideas!
We've spent the last couple of months making weekly trips to the orchard and making all sorts of delicious apple recipes. I'll tell ya, I'm really going to miss the orchard when it closes for the season.
There is nothing quite like apples fresh off the tree. And there's nothing quite like fresh apple recipes like apple pie, applesauce, and apple butter.
From preserving apples to baking apple desserts and even making dinner, there's really no limit on what to do with apples. There are so many ways you can use these wonderful fruits.
APPLES ARE GOOD FOR YOU TOO!
Apples taste so good, it almost seems wrong that they're so good for us.
Did you know apples are a good source of the following…
- Vitamin C
- Potassium
- Antioxidants
- Fiber
Not that desserts are necessarily good for us, but apples themselves and some of the things you can make with them, can pack quite the punch when it comes to nutrients our bodies need.
Below you'll find 50 ways to use apples, plus kitchen tools you may need when working with apples.
KITCHEN TOOLS YOU MAY NEED FOR MAKING APPLE RECIPES
Apple Corer/Peeler/Slicer – This actually makes the process of chopping up the apples a lot quicker.
Paring Knife – for trimming off any bad spots or slicing the apples. My paring knife is kinda like my spatula… I can't cook without it.
Food Mill or Immersion Blender – You might want this if making applesauce or apple butter.
Jars and Lids – I prefer jelly jars or pint jars. In fact, we usually try to keep our pantry stocked with jars. But don’t forget the lids and rings. They can be easy to forget, and before you know it, you have all the jars you need but no lids.
Pastry Blender – I love my simple pastry blender. The mixture doesn’t get stuck in it like it does the bigger pastry blenders.
Rolling Pin – Definitely need this if you’re making pies.
Glass Pie Plates – This pie plate is my old faithful pie plate; I’ve had it forever, probably since we got married. Mine actually has the fluted edge sorta built in too, so you can press it in and get somewhat of a decorative edge without a lot of handiwork on your part.
Adjustable Pie Shield – Protects your pie crust from burning.
Baking Sheet, Baking Pan, or Bundt Pan
