Top 5 Apple Dessert Ideas for Autumn

As you are on the way home this afternoon, you notice the wind blowing the falling leaves on the streets, while trees above that sky corner change yellow and crimson. It’s here: Autumn has arrived. Autumn is also the season of apples, so let’s gather some ideas here, get to the kitchen, whip up a dessert, and brush the sweetness around.

1. Salted Caramel Apple Pie

When Autumn arrives, apple pie appears to be the essential traditional treat in our memory. However, if you find the sweet flavour to be too typical, a salted caramel touch may be a good alternative to satisfy your appetite. Let’s see how it’s made.

Apart from the regular ingredients, salted caramel apple pie has three parts: a crust, a cinnamon-flavoured apple, and salted caramel from inside to the top. As always, the crust is made with flour, butter, salt, and water. While the apple filling is prepared with fresh apples cut into slices, cinnamon powder, a little lemon juice, and sugar. To make the sauce, caramelize the sugar and season it with salt and heavy cream to taste, then pour it over the apples. The final step is to put it into the oven and be ready for a yummy pie.

Ingredients for the dessert:

350g flour – 330g sugar – 30g salt – 335g unsalted butter – 240ml heavy cream – 180ml lemon juice – 25g ground cinnamon – 5 apples.

2. Cinnamon Apple Pie Bread

Breakfast with homemade apple bread and cheese would make a beautiful morning. The carbonate in the bread offers you a boost of energy, while apple and cinnamon are a classic combination for warming up your digestion. One more advantage is that the recipe is so simple that it may be completed in a matter of minutes.

This bread is prepared with flour, apples, eggs, sugar, butter, baking powder, and cinnamon powder – all of which can be found on the shelves of any baking enthusiast’s kitchen. Simply combine all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and thoroughly mix them together. You’ll need a blender to shred the apples into a fine texture that will readily mingle into the batter. Then it’s time to bake it in the oven. In only 40 minutes, you’ll have an apple pie in the form of bread.

Ingredients for the dessert:

250g flour – 80g brown sugar – 150g white sugar – 80g salted butter – 7g baking powder – 150ml milk – 2 eggs – 4g ground cinnamon – 1 apple – 6g vanilla extract

3. Apple Pancake

Apple pancake may sound strange to some people. We have banana pancakes, but might apple be substituted? Yes, it can, and it is delicious. The apple flavour gives the pancake a somewhat sour taste that pairs well with the greasy butter. If you don’t like a high sugar content dessert, this is a good option.

How you create a regular pancake is also how you make an apple pancake. You start with a mixture of flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon powder. Then, one at a time, add on the eggs, melted butter, and apple juice. Stir until the ingredients are combined, resulting in a wet, slightly lumpy batter. The last step is to be careful when pouring this batter into the skillet and don’t let them be overcooked.

Ingredients for the dessert:

200g flour – 80g sugar – 5g ground cinnamon – 180ml milk – 5g baking powder – 4g baking soda – 10g salt – 2 egg – 2 tablespoons oil – 1 ½ tablespoon vinegar

4. Apple Jam

In the apple season, if you find it hard to preserve a sack of apples, we could make apple jam for close friends as a birthday gift, for our anniversary, or for any other special occasion. It’s a delightful treat that will melt in your lips!

Apple jam is made with fewer ingredients than apple pie, which comprises of apple, sugar, cardamom, and lemon juice. However, the procedure for a small batch could take an hour. To begin, dice the apples and cook them with sugar, cardamom, and lemon juice in a pot. Remember to stir it frequently while it’s boiling and maintain the heat on medium until it thickens. Allow the jam to cool in a sterilized jar before wrapping it in a nice band to give to your friends.

Ingredients for the dessert:

6 apples – 5 cardamom pods – 300g sugar – 2 lemons

5. Moist Apple Cake

There’s nothing quite like sitting with your loved one on a Sunday afternoon and sharing a soft, sweet dessert. A moist apple cake would be the perfect sweet treat to have for moments like these.

What you need for this cake are all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, salt, unsalted butter, sugar, large eggs, applesauce, and sour cream. To begin, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a single mixing dish. Then, using a mixer on medium speed, incorporate the butter, sugar, and eggs gently until well blended. Gradually add the flour mixture, along with the applesauce and sour cream, into the mixed-egg mixture until everything is thoroughly combined. We should now have the perfect batter texture. Bake the batter after spreading it into a mould.

Ingredients for the dessert:

250g flour – 5g baking powder – 5g baking soda – 3g ground cinnamon – 10g salt – 90g unsalted butter – 2 eggs – 100ml applesauce – 100ml sour cream
