    Apple Chips.

    Core and slice a few apples into rings. I used Gala but I'm sure any kind would be good. Toss with a few teaspoons (or tablespoons, I won't judge!) of cinnamon. Bake at 200F for 2-3 hours. They should be dry but soft. They will get crisper as they cool.

    The original recipe I saw said to add some sugar too but I think the apples were plenty sweet enough without.

    APPLES! Apple pie, apple crumble, toffee apples, stewed apples, apple crepes, apple and pork sausages....they're just delicious, especially when they're in something very unhealthy! My favourite autumn fruit is plums though, plum crumble with custard is my ultimate comfort food

    It's spring here, but I still have lots of quince and apple cider left from Autumn... it has loads of calories

    Apples (gotta be honeycrisp), but I do have a fantastic dark chocolate chip pumpkin bread that I make every fall.

    Do I have to choose?!?! Pumpkin would win for now - but apple will get it around November.

    I hope to try this recipe this weekend. http://spr.ly/618080Maa

    My go to for apples is to dice an apple or two, drizzle a small amount of water over the apple and sprinkle cinnamon over it. Microwave for 3 minutes. Add a dollop of whip cream and stir. It tastes like baked apples and is low in calories.

    You can't make me choose! Love them both. Sliced apples with homemade peanut butter is my go-to afternoon snack. Except when pumpkin seeds are. Two of my favorite falls recipes are a pumpkin risotto and a pumpkin tortilla soup
