Simple Desserts, Treats and Everyday Recipes
This is my family’s all-time-favorites apple pie recipe. And it’s the best apple pie in the world. Make this apple streusel pie and you will never try another recipe!
My family calls this multicultural apple pie because it has French Pie Filling and a Dutch Apple Crumb on top, but it is the best of both world’s. The recipe has been adapted by my mom from several apple pie variations in the Betty Crocker cookbook.
…Make this donut shop favorite at home this fall. These baked apple fritters are easy and baked, not fried.
Welcome September! Are you one who is glad to see the end of summer? Or do you wish it would last longer? I’m always sad to see it leave. As a mother, I love being able to spend time outside with my kids. But I do love the baking that comes with fall.
…These caramel apple cinnamon rolls are perfect as a fall dessert or breakfast treat. Classic cinnamon rolls get an upgrade with freshly diced apples and caramel frosting.
You all know my family and I are huge fans of cinnamon rolls and every variation you can think of. So far this summer, I’ve posted brown butter peach cinnamon rolls and lemon blueberry sweet rolls. I didn’t think we could transition to fall without including an apple version in our collection.

I’ve had to make these easy apple blondies at least three times in order to take pictures of them. Each time I made them, they disappeared long before I could get their picture taken with no leftovers to be seen. So one lazy Saturday afternoon, I decided to make them again to get them photographed and on the blog.
This recipe was originally published in November 2014, but I’ve updated the pictures and the recipe to include a brown sugar frosting.

Growing up on a farm, my family lived on cold meat sandwiches during harvest. Both lunch and supper would be served to the men out in the field. 90% of the meals to the field and the ones we ate at home for September and October consisted of a sandwich, an apple or pear and three cookies. As kids, if we rode on the combine with dad, mom would send us a little version of dad’s supper. We thought it was the coolest thing to eat lunch out in the field with dad. …
A quick and easy dessert that is fancy enough for company, these caramel apple puff pastries are great with ice cream.
Wow! It’s September so let’s bring on the all the apple and pumpkin recipes! I survived the last two weeks being a single working mom. Tyler was away for training for two weeks in Delaware. It’s just far enough away that he can’t drive every day….
Inside Out Caramel Apples are a fun fall treat. Cored apples are filled with caramel sprinkled with cinnamon and baked until tender, then topped with pecans and more caramel for an easy dessert.
While I’m still hanging onto summer, I have to admit fall is around the corner. I went on a walk during lunch today at work and there was no mistaking the cool breeze in the air. Plus the evening found me curled up on the couch, sipping a hot mug of chai tea. So for all of you who are embracing fall with open arms, here is a fun, festive recipe to begin fall with. I think these warm, inside out caramel apples would also be delicious with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top….
A simpler version of apple dumplings, this Apple Dumpling Bake is made in a casserole dish with soft, cinnamon apples sandwiched between layers of tender crust.
I know in February you’re supposed to make all sorts of chocolate desserts with pink and red accents. But I’m sharing a family favorite recipe. My family generally loves any dessert with apples. Dad’s all-time favorite dessert was apple pie, but we also love apple dumplings, apple bars, and most recently, apple pizza. This Apple Dumpling Bake is way easier than traditional apple dumplings with all the delicious flavor. (Please note the cute little hearts cut in the top crust.)

This moist, peanut-buttery muffin studded with apple chunks and topped with crunchy granola is a healthy and satisfying treat.
Lately, I have had people asking me how I can make so many delicious, sugary treats and still eat somewhat healthy. While I do taste everything I make (Quality control is a must, I would never share something with you that didn’t pass!), my husband and I don’t eat near all of what I bake. We give most of it away; our friends, family and neighbors love us for it, and it’s huge help to not have temptation staring us in the face (Although, there are some things we just can’t help eating all ourselves!).
