Grandma's Secret Apple Brownies!
"My grandmother used to make these all the time for me when I was young. She finally gave me the recipe and I have been making them since! They are super moist and just incredible. Have one in the morning with your coffee or warm one up and place vanilla ice cream on top for dessert!" - Jessica
Apple Dutch Baby
"This Apple Dutch Baby is a delicious twist on a traditional dutch baby pancake. It has tender apples in every bite and full of cinnamon flavor. If you have never made a dutch baby it is one of those things that is so impressive when it comes out of the oven all big and puffy. Then watching it deflate in amazement, trust me everyone will gasp." - Debbie

Apple Chess Pie With Streusel Top
"Ok, this is an apple pie, but not the apple pie you usually think of when you think of an apple pie. Let me explain. I wanted something different but just as decadent. I came up with this Apple Chess Pie with Streusel Top. The inside is creamy and rich, much the same texture as a chess pie if you’re familiar with them. I didn’t want to stop there, I wanted this apple pie to be over the top. I added a crunchy streusel topping to offset the creamy layer. Adding the streusel was the right decision." - Paula

Granny Smith Apple Bundt Cake
