Apple-Cinnamon Muffins

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

These healthy apple-cinnamon muffins will put you in an autumnal state of mind no matter the time of year. Sprinkling the muffins with sugar before baking gives them a crispy top, just like a coffee-shop muffin--but these are a whole lot more nutritious than your average coffee-shop muffin, thanks to wholesome ingredients like white whole-wheat flour. Serve them for breakfast or a grab-and-go snack.Ā Source: Eatingwell.com, July 2019

Fried Apple Pie Rolls

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

In this healthy take on apple pie, wonton wrappers stand in for pie crust, saving you calories and the headache of rolling out dough. We like to use Granny Smith apples because they hold their shape and provide tart balance to the sweet filling. Try dipping these handheld crispy treats in whipped cream.Ā Source: EatingWell Magazine, September/October 2016

Apple-Cinnamon Cake

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

This simple nondairy apple cake, which is often called Jewish apple cake, has origins in Eastern Europe.

The leftovers (if there are any) pair nicely with a cup of coffee the next morning.Ā Source: EatingWell.com, June 2020

Apple Cupcakes with Cinnamon-Marshmallow Frosting

View Recipe this link opens in a new tab

Shredded apple replaces some of the oil and keeps the cake moist in these cinnamon-spiked cupcakes. There is a generous amount of fluffy marshmallow frosting to mound or pipe on top for a festive look. Be sure to frost them right after you make the frosting--it stiffens as it stands and becomes more difficult to spread.Ā Source: EatingWell Magazine, September/October 2009

Spiced Apple Bread Pudding

This silky apple dessert recipe--a spiced apple bread pudding made with apple cider in place of the usual custard--gets a double hit of apple flavor from both the cider and plenty of sliced tart apples. Mace, the lacy red spice that coats the nutmeg fruit, adds a particularly lovely floral note, but you can substitute nutmeg if you don't have any mace on hand.Ā Source: EatingWell Magazine, September/October 2013
