Nothing says Fall quite like apple picking. It’s such a fun activity for the whole family to enjoy together, not to mention probably one of the last outdoor jaunts until winter weather comes along. But after the tractor ride, the petting zoo and the excitement of ladder climbing, once you’ve brought back all those bags of delicious apples at home, what do you do with them? Aside from crunching into some fresh ones, and baking a couple of pies, here are some recipes that we think the whole family will enjoy.
