Digest of Favorite Apple Recipes
I’ve posted a lot of apple recipes since starting Southern Plate. Next to bananas, apples are my favorite fruit to bake with!
With lots of us having apples in season now, I thought I’d bring all of these to you in one swoop so you can browse and find some new favorites. Each recipe is printer friendly and from my personal collection. Have a great Apple Season!
Gratefully,
Christy
Good N Easy Cake with Homemade Whipped Cream
This cake is so good. I especially love it in the evenings with a cup of coffee. Great story behind the recipe, too!
Apple Orchard Snack Cake
This is one of my favorites because it is filling and not very sweet. Great for breakfast, dessert, or a coffee treat.

Classic favorite that still wows the crowds! Served at many a family reunion and church luncheon.

I loved being the first to post. LOL
I don’t know which one I would rather have. Guess I will have to just work my way through them! Apples are very plentiful this years and I love the smell of apples and cinnamon baking on a crisp autumn day.
Oh Elaine, have you tried the skillet cake? It is just so beautiful and beyond cinnamon!
Saturday night is grandaughter night so we may just make this our project this evening. All we have to do is walk across the road to pick apples from our neighbor who shares them with the whole neighborhood. Can’t get fresher than that. Thanks for the inspiration..
Recipes look great. I preordered your book last April and am counting down with you!
Are all of these in the cookbook?
I am so glad that you have taken the time to put all these apple recipes in one handy place. I have made the APPLE DAPPLE CAKE several times and friends are asking for the recipe. so it was a hit as I am sure all of these will also. THANKS

Good Lord have mercy! Which one should I start with first?!?! They all look so good! Can’t wait to try them out!!!
I think you missed one. What about that one made with frozen puff pastry? Was that apple or something else?
Oh man. These apple recipes have been haunting me all week. Forget the diet, I think I’ll have to break down and make some of the fritters this weekend. Maybe a half batch!
Does it matter if you use regular applesauce and not unsweetened applesauce?
Ok, so I had just had to write to tell you what a hit the Apple Dapple cake was at our neighborhood block party. I made the cake for the block party this past Sunday. After eating my barbecue dinner, I headed to the dessert table to try a piece of the apply dapple cake. Well, there wasn’t a crumb remaining on the plate. It just so happens that a neightbor was standing at the dessert table too when she noticed that I was disappointed that I had missed out on the cake. She said that the cake was absolutely delicious and that many neighbors were trying to find out who made it. As it turns out, many had been walking around asking who brought the cake. Well, when it was learned that I made the cake, you wouldn’t believe how many women and men walked up to compliment me on it. Of course, the credit all goes to you from whom that recipe came. I told them to be sure to read about you in the October Southern Living magazine.
P.S. I learned that several folks wrapped up pieces of cake to carry home to have with their morning coffee.
THANK YOU so much for the fabulous recipe. Definitely a keeper and one that I’ll make for our Thanksgiving gathering.
Oh, awesome UNA debut!!…want to try the yeast rolls! Can you post the recipe?
Hopefully I can meet you at the book signing in Atlanta this month.
Christy – I apologize if I am asking a duplicate or uninformed (lol – sounds better than stupid right.) question, but when you send out your recipes each day, do you mark them somehow so that we know it is a recipe in your cookbook? I find that I print so many then find it in the cookbook or after I read your post I pull out the cookbook and look thru the index.
Thank you so much and have a really fun Thursday.
Christie,
what kind of apples do you use to make the Apple Dapple cake? I am wanting to make this cake tomorrow and I wasn’t sure
Can your fried apple pies be baked in the oven instead? If so what temperature?
