Our favorite apple recipes
In Quebec, we are very lucky to have a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables that grow at different times of the year. And I don't know about you, but for the DDD team, fall means: apple time! Whether your favorite apple is the McIntosh, the Gala, the Lobo, one thing is certain, we are definitely spoiled for choice!
Today we offer you some of our favorite recipes to use your leftover apples if you want to make a change (but we admit that there is nothing better than biting into a good fresh apple!).
Finding new ways to use the food in our fridges and pantry is a great way to reduce our food waste and it's always good for the budget. Hoping that you will love these recipes as much as we do and that they will make you discover apples in a whole new way!
For our brunch fans, we definitely recommend this maple apple butter. Absolutely delicious, it will pair very well with bread and pastries, will impress your guests every time, and will make your taste buds go crazy with joy! (Recipe credit: Laurence, Nutritionist & Founder of Libre de Manger)
Some of these recipes do not require removing the peel from the apples, but for those that do, what do you do with the peel? Rather than throwing it away why not make chips from it? A little sugar, cinnamon, pop in the oven and it makes a great anti-waste snack! (Recipe credit: Marie-Laure Tomibini of Biodélices)
3. Quick apple crumble in a cup
Do you love the classic apple crisp that often follows the picking, but you need something quick? Or do you prefer to have a smaller portion? (We get it, once you start eating a delicious crisp, it can be hard to control yourself!) So why not try a crisp in a microwaved cup? This great “Mug Cake” style recipe demonstrates how to cook a crumble that will make you drool, but which will also take you a good 2 minutes to complete. Perfect when you need a quick dessert.
