Did you know that October is National Apple Month? This means it’s a perfect time to try out some classic apple recipes.

While some people think of fall harvest vegetables and pumpkins during this time of year, the apple endures as an iconic food that never goes out of style.

There are so many great and versatile apple recipes you can make, so today we’ll focus on three of the most popular ones. Don’t forget you can improve on these to add your own personal culinary touch.

We start with apple cider. This recipe by Gimme Some Oven teaches you how to make cider in a Crock-Pot, Instant Pot, or even on the stove. It also suggests ways to make your cider sweeter or even healthier, depending on your preference.

Next up is a treat you can eat solo or with another dish. This homemade applesauce from The Food Network is light on the sugar, offering a purer taste than you’ll find in those artificially flavored options on store shelves.

Ready for dessert? What would a list of apple recipes be without apple pie? Little Spoon Farm shows us how it’s done with a recipe that bakes to perfection, allowing you to enjoy that delicious apple taste with a perfect texture that’s never soggy or flimsy.
