Ready-rolled pastry makes this dessert super easy to make, yet still very delicious.

Ingredients:

  • 11 ounces ready rolled shortcrust pastry 
  • 4 large cooking apples
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ cup demerara sugar

Instructions:

  1. Remove the pastry from the fridge before using
  2. Preheat the oven to 340℉
  3. Unroll the pastry
  4. Take an ovenproof dish and use it to measure up how much pastry you’ll need for the base and sides, and then cut this out
  5. Lightly grease the ovenproof dish and then place the pastry that you’ve cut into it, pressing it into the edges so it forms the base and sides of the pie
  6. With the remained of the pastry, you can form it into a ball and then roll it out to the same thickness as the rest and form it into the shape of the ovenproof dish to be used as the lid
  7. Peel and decore the apples and chop them into slices, about 1 inch thick
  8. Place the apples into the pie base in even layers
  9. Mix the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar in a bowl
  10. Sprinkle the sugar and spices mixture over the apple slices and mix it throughout
  11. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the apples, and then cover the pie with the pastry lid
  12. Place in the oven for about 40 minutes, until the pastry is cooked and slightly browned

If you’re like us, then you love cinnamon quite a bit. Not only is cinnamon super healthy and good for you, but it’s also incredibly tasty, and has one of the most unique flavors out there. For this reason, there are many different dishes that pair super well with it. If you’re trying to eat more cinnamon in your life and you’re wondering which dishes you should make that highlight it, here are a few.

Apple Pie

The first delicious cinnamon based recipe is actually one that is mainly based on another food: apples. Apple pie is one of the tastiest desserts you can make, and one of its most prominent flavors is that of cinnamon.

Snickerdoodle

If you’re someone who loves both cookies and cinnamon, snickerdoodles are the definitive way to go. These cinnamon cookies are truly special, especially when they’re moist and doughy (although everyone has their preferences). Practical, simple, and bursting with flavors, snickerdoodles are simply classic.

Cinnamon Roll

Finally, one of the very iconic cinnamon-based dishes out there is yet another dessert—and it’s the cinnamon roll. Prevalent in just about every bakery you go to, and emitting one of the sweetest aromas out there, nothing beats it!

When the leaves turn brown and the air turns crisp, there are few desserts that hit the spot more than a good old fashioned apple pie. Whether for dessert at Thanksgiving or just because, it’s a great way to enjoy something warm and indulgent while making use of seasonal produce. While you can certainly go with a store-bought pie, baking from scratch allows for more control over the ingredients, with the bonus of making your kitchen smell like a bakery. Read on for some tips to take your apple pie game to the next level.

Choose the Right Apples

To create a pie with a balanced flavor profile, opt for a blend of sweet and tart apples like Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn. Sweeter varieties will give your pie a dessert-like feel and enhance the flavors of the sugar and spices, while tart apples will keep things light by serving as a bold, zingy contrast. Experiment with different combinations until you find one that you love. 

Precook Your Apples

The key to a perfect apple pie lies in the texture of the filling. Precooking your apples before adding them to your crust will give them a tender, melt-in-your-mouth consistency and help to prevent a soggy bottom crust. Just slice and sauté in a pan with some butter, sugar, and spices until they begin to soften and release their juices.

Elevate the Flavors

Choosing the right apples is only the first step in making your apple pie filling. Once you’ve decided which varieties to use, play around with adding other ingredients such as citrus zest, cinnamon, or even a little bourbon to enhance the flavor and give your pie an unforgettable taste.

Among all of the tasty desserts that can fill up your house with warmth and sweet aroma, apple pie is one of the most popular. It may seem super intimidating to prepare, but what if we told you it’s easier than you think? Here’s how to prepare a delicious apple pie to perfection.

The Apples

To begin, we need to gather our ingredients. Think of a medley of crisp apples, cinnamon, sugar, and a buttery pie crust. It’s like a symphony of flavors waiting to be created. Once we have everything ready, we can dive into the fun part—preparing the apples. Peel and slice them into thin wedges. Don’t forget to toss them with a sprinkle of sugar and a dash of cinnamon to add that extra oomph of flavor.

The Crust

Now, let’s move on to the crust. Whether you choose to make your own or go for the convenience of store-bought, the choice is yours. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can experiment with adding a pinch of nutmeg or a hint of lemon zest to the dough for an exciting twist.

Bringing it All Together

Once the crust is ready, it’s time to assemble our masterpiece. Fill the crust with the apple slices, pack them in snugly, and cover with a second layer of dough. Don’t forget to cut a few slits on the top to allow steam to escape. Now, it’s off to the oven to bake until golden brown and bubbly.

Apple pie is one of the defining fall desserts, and there are many fun ways you can put a tasty twist on your go-to recipes. If you’re in the mood to add some extra ingredients to the mix and make your apple pie as sweet as it gets, here are five flavor combos you should try ASAP.

Cinnamon Apple Pie

Some apple pie recipes call for cinnamon while others don’t. If that’s not the case with yours, add this spice to the mix, and you won’t regret making this tiny change.

Cranberry Apple Pie

Many people tend to add cranberries to their desserts during colder seasons, and you won’t go wrong if you use them to make your apple pie even tastier.

Pumpkin Apple Pie

Pumpkins and apples are two of the fruits we’ll be seeing everywhere this season, so why not combine them together and make one hell of a dessert?

Maple Apple Pie

If you love your apple pies on a sweeter side but want to avoid sugar, a few drops of maple syrup will give it the flavor boost you’re aiming for.

Caramel Apple Pie

Caramel and apples are a match made in heaven, and making a pie that contains both these ingredients is always a good idea.

Even though fall is fast approaching, there are plenty of places where it still feels like summer, at least in terms of the weather. Baking is one of our favorite activities any time of year, but if we can avoid it, we prefer not to use the oven when it’s 90 degrees outside.

Fortunately, there are ways to create delicious desserts with no actual baking involved, and plenty of no-bake recipes that incorporate all of our favorite seasonal flavors like apple and pumpkin. Here are a few that we love and will continue to make until the temperature drops.

No-Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake

‘No-bake’ definitely doesn’t have to mean there’s no flavor. These little pumpkin cheesecakes are as delicious as they are adorable—packed with pumpkin puree and a blend of delicious fall spices. They can be served in whatever jars or glasses you’ve got on hand.

Raw Apple Tarts

These cute little tarts not only require no baking but also contain no added sugar. They’re a healthier option if you’re looking for a seasonal treat that isn’t too sweet or indulgent. 

Carrot Cake Bites

Carrots may not be the most obvious choice for a fall recipe, but the spices traditionally used in carrot cake are very similar to those typically paired with pumpkin. These bites are also a great choice for those in search of a gluten-free dessert.

Apple pie is one of the defining fall desserts, and it’s only as good as the apples you’re using while making it. It’s important to go with firm and crisp verities so your pie wouldn’t get too mushy, and these three are some of the best possible choices on the market.

Granny Smith

Granny Smith is one of the all-time favorites when it comes to apple pies and for a very good reason. Their firmness is their biggest strength and your pie will never get too mushy if you’re using them. If their flavor is too strong and acidic for your taste, combine them with some sweeter apple verities to get a great combo.

Braeburn

Braeburn doesn’t get as much attention as some other apple verities, but it’s a great choice for apple pies. In addition to releasing very little liquid when baked, Braeburn is a perfect pick thanks to its unique flavor that offers a great balance between sweet and tart.

Honey Crisp

Honey Crisp is another fan favorite because they’re pretty firm and hold their shape well when baked. In addition to helping you achieve the right texture by not releasing too much juice while baking, this apple variety is a great choice because it’s perfectly nice and sweet.

After all, you only live once! So let’s get into some of our personal favorite desserts that’ll warm you up during the wintertime.

Chocolate Molten Lava Cake

There are so many good chocolate dessert recipes that we couldn’t decide which one to choose, so we just went with this one. After all, can you really go wrong with a chocolate molten lava cake? A staple dessert at restaurants and households alike, we can practically taste the lava from here.

Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon Rolls will always be a classic dessert, maybe till the end of time. We don’t care how many healthy trends emerge into the market—scrumptious dough will always mix well with sugar and cinnamon, and that’s a scientific fact.

Apple Pie

There’s nothing like the smell of apple pie when it gets taken out of the oven. The wafting aroma of cinnamon, the warm cooked apple oozing out gently from its core. Is your mouth watering yet? Ours is.

One of the most traditional parts of any American Thanksgiving is the dessert, which tends to be some type of pie. This crusty, warm mixture of dough and a fruit or nut filling is a favorite throughout the year, but really gets its time to shine during the fall and on Thanksgiving.

So, what are Americans’ favorite pies on this special holiday? Here are the top three.

Pumpkin

Pumpkin pie is a favorite throughout the entire country, and especially in its heartland. The mixture of pumpkin flesh along with spices—including allspice, cinnamon, and cloves—makes for a true taste of fall.

Apple

Apple pie can be found all around the country, but it’s most common in the Northeast for Thanksgiving. In this tasty pie, apples and cinnamons are combined to create a gooey, rich filling that is often combined with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Pecan

Pecan pie is a regional favorite that has now become more and more common across the country. The south-central region—including Texas and Oklahoma—is full of pecan trees, which produce a nut that is mixed with corn syrup and vanilla to make an extremely rich and sweet dessert many swear by.

Apple pie is the ultimate comfort food, and there’s something really nostalgic about this feel-good dessert. Fall and winter dinners can’t go without it, and if you still haven’t mastered your recipe—avoiding these common mistakes will get you there.

Apple Prep

Picking the right kind of apples is the first step you should make, and you can’t go wrong with firmer varieties that won’t go mushy in the oven. You should also chop the apples by hand instead of using a blender.

Skipping Thickener

Thickeners—such as flour or cornstarch—are an important ingredient in your filling, and your pie will be thin and mushy if you don’t use them.

Room Temperature Dough

Don’t leave your dough at room temperature as you prep the filling. It should be refrigerated so the batter wouldn’t soften, leading to the soggy and soft crust.

Pie Overload

Don’t go overboard when filling the pie with apples. Too much of a good thing can lead to a disaster, because extra fruit juice can make your crust wet.

Wrong Temperature

Don’t meddle with your oven’s temperature settings while preparing the pie. If your oven isn’t properly heated from the get-go, the bottom of your crust won’t be properly baked.

Many people tend to add cranberries to their desserts during colder seasons, and you won’t go wrong if you use them to make your apple pie even tastier.

Pumpkin Apple Pie

Pumpkins and apples are two of the fruits we’ll be seeing everywhere this season, so why not combine them together and make one hell of a dessert?

Maple Apple Pie

If you love your apple pies on a sweeter side but want to avoid sugar, a few drops of maple syrup will give it the flavor boost you’re aiming for.

Caramel Apple Pie

Caramel and apples are a match made in heaven, and making a pie that contains both these ingredients is always a good idea.

Even though fall is fast approaching, there are plenty of places where it still feels like summer, at least in terms of the weather. Baking is one of our favorite activities any time of year, but if we can avoid it, we prefer not to use the oven when it’s 90 degrees outside.

Fortunately, there are ways to create delicious desserts with no actual baking involved, and plenty of no-bake recipes that incorporate all of our favorite seasonal flavors like apple and pumpkin. Here are a few that we love and will continue to make until the temperature drops.

No-Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake

‘No-bake’ definitely doesn’t have to mean there’s no flavor. These little pumpkin cheesecakes are as delicious as they are adorable—packed with pumpkin puree and a blend of delicious fall spices. They can be served in whatever jars or glasses you’ve got on hand.

Raw Apple Tarts

These cute little tarts not only require no baking but also contain no added sugar. They’re a healthier option if you’re looking for a seasonal treat that isn’t too sweet or indulgent. 

Carrot Cake Bites

Carrots may not be the most obvious choice for a fall recipe, but the spices traditionally used in carrot cake are very similar to those typically paired with pumpkin. These bites are also a great choice for those in search of a gluten-free dessert.

Apple pie is one of the defining fall desserts, and it’s only as good as the apples you’re using while making it. It’s important to go with firm and crisp verities so your pie wouldn’t get too mushy, and these three are some of the best possible choices on the market.

Granny Smith

Granny Smith is one of the all-time favorites when it comes to apple pies and for a very good reason. Their firmness is their biggest strength and your pie will never get too mushy if you’re using them. If their flavor is too strong and acidic for your taste, combine them with some sweeter apple verities to get a great combo.

Braeburn

Braeburn doesn’t get as much attention as some other apple verities, but it’s a great choice for apple pies. In addition to releasing very little liquid when baked, Braeburn is a perfect pick thanks to its unique flavor that offers a great balance between sweet and tart.

Honey Crisp

Honey Crisp is another fan favorite because they’re pretty firm and hold their shape well when baked. In addition to helping you achieve the right texture by not releasing too much juice while baking, this apple variety is a great choice because it’s perfectly nice and sweet.

There’s nothing like munching on something sweet after a long savory meal. And during these cold winter days, a tasty treat can feel especially well-deserved (you know what we’re talking about). After all, you only live once! So let’s get into some of our personal favorite desserts that’ll warm you up during the wintertime.

Chocolate Molten Lava Cake

There are so many good chocolate dessert recipes that we couldn’t decide which one to choose, so we just went with this one. After all, can you really go wrong with a chocolate molten lava cake? A staple dessert at restaurants and households alike, we can practically taste the lava from here.

Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon Rolls will always be a classic dessert, maybe till the end of time. We don’t care how many healthy trends emerge into the market—scrumptious dough will always mix well with sugar and cinnamon, and that’s a scientific fact.

Apple Pie

There’s nothing like the smell of apple pie when it gets taken out of the oven. The wafting aroma of cinnamon, the warm cooked apple oozing out gently from its core. Is your mouth watering yet? Ours is.

One of the most traditional parts of any American Thanksgiving is the dessert, which tends to be some type of pie. This crusty, warm mixture of dough and a fruit or nut filling is a favorite throughout the year, but really gets its time to shine during the fall and on Thanksgiving.

So, what are Americans’ favorite pies on this special holiday? Here are the top three.

Pumpkin

Pumpkin pie is a favorite throughout the entire country, and especially in its heartland. The mixture of pumpkin flesh along with spices—including allspice, cinnamon, and cloves—makes for a true taste of fall.

Apple

Apple pie can be found all around the country, but it’s most common in the Northeast for Thanksgiving. In this tasty pie, apples and cinnamons are combined to create a gooey, rich filling that is often combined with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Pecan

Pecan pie is a regional favorite that has now become more and more common across the country. The south-central region—including Texas and Oklahoma—is full of pecan trees, which produce a nut that is mixed with corn syrup and vanilla to make an extremely rich and sweet dessert many swear by.

Apple pie is the ultimate comfort food, and there’s something really nostalgic about this feel-good dessert. Fall and winter dinners can’t go without it, and if you still haven’t mastered your recipe—avoiding these common mistakes will get you there.

Apple Prep

Picking the right kind of apples is the first step you should make, and you can’t go wrong with firmer varieties that won’t go mushy in the oven. You should also chop the apples by hand instead of using a blender.

Skipping Thickener

Thickeners—such as flour or cornstarch—are an important ingredient in your filling, and your pie will be thin and mushy if you don’t use them.

Room Temperature Dough

Don’t leave your dough at room temperature as you prep the filling. It should be refrigerated so the batter wouldn’t soften, leading to the soggy and soft crust.

Pie Overload

Don’t go overboard when filling the pie with apples. Too much of a good thing can lead to a disaster, because extra fruit juice can make your crust wet.

Wrong Temperature

Don’t meddle with your oven’s temperature settings while preparing the pie. If your oven isn’t properly heated from the get-go, the bottom of your crust won’t be properly baked.
