Savoury Apple Recipes for Fall Family Meals and Entertaining (2024)

I love apples, for the last 9 years, I have been very fortunate to walk into our garden and pick from our two apple trees. That is about to change as we move to new pastures although we will be adding an apple tree to our new garden as soon as we can. We’ve made my apple and cinnamon loaf so many times that as soon as I head out with the colander to pick the apples the kids know that by the end of the day there will be a couple of loaves in the freezer and one ready for tea time that day. But, I also love using the apples in savoury dishes as they are the first of the Autumn family meals and also entertaining.

Now I promise you that not all of these recipes are healthy but there is a mix of comfort food, side dishes and main courses that will start the season of beautifully. So here we go Savoury Apple Recipes for Fall.

The early part of Autumn can often be warm – in fact this week in the UK we are expected to hit September highs with the temperature reaching over 30C.
