It’s October which means crisp air, holiday season around the corner and of course, all things apples!   Have you ventured to do your annual apple picking and question what on earth are you going to do with all these apples?  There’s only so many apples you can eat in the raw before viewing them as just a boring apple!  Well, here’s a solution!

Growing up my Dad was very big on Sunday brunch.  He would always make my brothers and I all types of heavenly breakfast foods every Sunday. As an adult, I still incorporate this mentality into my every week but as you know, I am always coming up with a more nutrient dense way of consuming the foods that I love.  If you enjoy a Sunday brunch at home and want to add in some apple flavoring, you’re going to love these!
