It’s beginning to feel a lot like fall… and I’m excited. It’s not about the pumpkins, or sweaters, or not sweating the second you step outside. For me, fall is all about the honeycrisp apple.
If you’ve never eaten a honeycrisp, you are missing out on life. I pretty much don’t want to eat anything else. They are so perfectly crispy and sweet. When honeycrisps aren’t in season, I have a hard time eating apples. They have ruined all other apples for me. They are everything an apple should be.
Ok, enough of my love letter to honeycrisps. I know many of you feel the same way, albeit maybe not as strongly as me. So, since you are probably buying a bushel of these every time you go to the grocery store (because who can resist?) here are 10 AWESOME recipes that make use of the incomparable honeycrisp.
1. Goat Cheese Honeycrisp Apple Rosemary Thins
Reluctant entertainer has an incredible sounding recipe that includes two of my all time favorite foods: goat cheese and honeycrisp apples. You can’t go wrong with such a simple appetizer.
2. Potato Apple Latkes
I do try to stick to including only recipes from bloggers, but this recipe from My Recipe was too good to pass up. I love me a good latke, and it just makes sense to include apples. Skip the applesauce and make yourself some awesome Honeycrisp latkes.
3. Oven Baked Apple Chips
My Baker Lady showed that recipes don’t need to be complicated to be amazing. These baked apple chips sound super easy, and super delicious.
4. Honeycrisp Apple Sangria
I’ve seen this recipe from Nutmeg Nanny on pinterest multiple times. Crisp and delicious, this sounds like the perfect indulgent fall beverage.
5. Honeycrisp Apple Sauce
There certainly is Unexpected Elegance in this recipe for honeycrisp applesauce. It’s a simple and easy way to use those honeycrisps and enjoy their flavor.
6. Honeycrisp Apple Pie
Ok, this pie by the Hopeless Housewife is too pretty, not to mention, it looks delicious. What a perfect fall dessert.
7. Caramel Glazed Honeycrisp Apple Bread
Culinary Concoctions by Peabody came up with the most amazing sounding recipe. And look at that picture, my mouth is watering. This bread sounds like an incredible treat.
8. Caramel Honeycrisp Apples
You can’t go wrong with a classic. My Daily Morsel sure makes these caramel apples sound easy.
9. Honeycrisp Apple Nachos
Lexi’s Clean Kitchen has found a way to make a (mostly) healthy dessert. Drizzle your toppings artfully and call them Apple Nachos and you can’t go wrong.
10. Lean Turkey Honeycrisp Sausage Breakfast Patties
I love me some good turkey sausage. Add in honeycrisps and maple syrup, like Ambitious Kitchen does, and you have yourself a sweet and savory breakfast.
Let me tell you, it wasn’t easy picking these. There are so many ridiculously amazing honeycrisp recipes out there. Now excuse me while I’m in the kitchen making every single one of these…
And just in time for Rosh Hashana!

An apple a day keeps the Doctor away… But a honeycrisp apple does all that and more!!
I share your immense love for these apples!
They are the perfect crispness. The skin doesn’t tempt one to peel the apple (due to tough/time consuming chew work) and the flavor is perfect! Sweet, but not too sweet.
