Can you feel that chill in the air? I am guessing you know what that means… fall is here! We’re over here rejoicing because it is time to bring on the holiday and comfort foods for a few months. The start of fall means the commencement of apple picking season. People all over will be picking barrels upon barrels of apple and digging up old family recipes to cook some of the best seasonal food. The greatest part about these apple recipes is that the fruit is a great source of Vitamin E, Vitamin A, and beta carotene. Apples are beneficial for skin health, bone health, whitening teeth, and digestive health as well. So even though you may be fattening up a bit with for winter, the meals are at least somewhat nutritious. Ok, well, that may be an exaggeration, but it is true that the apples are a fantastic way to keep your immune system in check as the weather gets colder.
If that doesn’t convince you, keep in mind that apple picking is a good way to get fresh air and do some mild exercising. When the winter season sets in, you may regret not getting out while the weather was at its perfect temperatures. We are sure we don’t have to convince you though, everyone loves a good apple during the fall! In honor of the start of fall, everyone get out your apples, cinnamon, and brown sugar! We’re about to cook some of the most delicious apple recipes around. Check out our top ten recipes for the fall apple season!
