Fall is in the air, and that means time to visit the apple orchard! Fill up your bushel because you’ll want to make all these healthy apple recipes!
We don’t just love apples for their taste but also because of all their health benefits too!

Baked goods are an obvious go-to for apple lovers, but today I want to share even more ideas to enjoy this delicious, healthy fruit for breakfast, lunch, dinner, as well as dessert!
