Apple [1] season is starting, and even if your kids haven't taken to the oh-so-wonderful raw version of Fall's favorite fruit, we're guaranteeing they'll dive into the following kid-friendly recipes. From apple nachos and pizza to caramel-topped parfaits, cupcakes, and cheesecake bars, these treats all let the humble apple shine!
Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal
Made with toddlers in mind, this cinnamon apple oatmeal [2] uses only rolled oats, milk, water, agave nectar, cinnamon, and, of course, apples!
Apple Caramel Parfaits
Not only are these apple caramel parfaits [4] from Cinda B. beautiful to look at, but with a mix of apples, cake, caramel sauce, and whipped cream, they're even better to eat!
Apple Nachos
Apple nachos [6] from Allyson Kramer turn raw apple slices into a decadent treat by topping them with peanut butter, almonds, pecans, coconut, and chocolate chips!
Caramel Apple Cupcakes
Caramel apple cupcakes [8] — almond cupcakes with apple cider buttercream, dipped in caramel — from The Baking Robot are a guaranteed hit.
