Apple Recipes for New Ways to Make Apple Pie

Signs of fall? Orange, yellow and red leaves blowing off the tree branches to coat the ground. Cool winds filling the air. Nights that seem to arrive sooner and sooner. And an apple pie baking in the oven, hints of cinnamon wafting through the kitchen. But for those days you want that apple pie flavor without all the work? Forget the pie plate – you can reinvent apple pie with these apple recipes. For something fast with few ingredients, make creamy apple pie parfaits or baked apples (top with plenty of whipped cream). Make apple pie pops using premade piecrust or craft baked apple cups with puff pastry. Apple pie never tasted so good!

Apple Pie Parfaits

Repeat with another layer. These apple pie parfaits from Stonyfield make for a quick, healthy afterschool snack or light dessert.

Baked Apples

This recipe for baked apples from the kitchn is fun and easy to make with your kids. Combine brown sugar, oatmeal, cinnamon, nutmeg, and extras like chopped nuts or dried fruit.
