Happy weekend, friends!
I think today has been one of the laziest days I’ve had in weeks…months, even. I am loving every.single.minute of it.
That being said, I took a little break from the photo snapping and spent pretty much my whole morning lounging in my PJ’s, catching up on the DVR, and just relaxing.
So I thought I’d switch things up a little bit this afternoon and share some of my favorite recipes involving a fall favorite of mine…apples!
I know many people have begun apple picking, and even though I have yet to pick any myself, I already know a couples of recipes that I’ll be using as soon as I do. Hopefully one of them will sound good to you too!
Chocolate Caramel Apple Cookies
Creamy Fruit Dip (perfect for dipping with apples!)
And of course, we can’t forget…
I suppose since it’s coming up to 1:30 I should probably shower and change outta my PJ’s? Especially since I have a fun night planned with some of my favorite people!
Hope you’re having just as great of a Saturday…relaxing or not!
Carissa says
I used to apple pick with my Grandfather..he had apple trees in his yard in Virginia. No apple picking here in Florida, but I love those recipes!
Lauren says
I’m still in my PJs too! :P That’s what makes Saturdays so awesome. Thanks for sharing these recipes–I just went picking and have a TON of apples to use up!
Hope says
I’m still in my pj’s too! I gotta get a move on already. I am dying to try those cupcakes! They look absolutely delicious! :)
Erica @ For the Sake of Cake says
Great recipes! I definitely want to try an apple crisp sometime soon!
Meg says
Ahhh lovin all the apple!!!! I wish there was apple picking in CO! I made apple crisp last night but yours looks TDF!!!
Khushboo says
SO glad I’m eating an apple as I read this post :)! I’m going through a phase of regularly cooking a huge batch of cinnamon-stewed apples and then refrigerating it. It tastes so freaking good with yogurt and granola (or a crumbled muffin if you have any on hand)!
Holly says
YUM..I want that Apple Crisp RIGHT now. It’s calling my name ;)
I hope you continue to enjoy your RELAXING day- you deserve it! I think you guys should even get take out for dinner so that you can really just have a complete day off!!
Courtney says
Thanks, Holly!
We’re actually meeting up with friends later, so no take out for us tonight…but it will be just as fun! Hope you’re having a great day, too! :)
Brittany says
I have never been apple picking unfortunately. But these recipes look awesome. Apples are one of my favorite fruits!
Chelcie of Chelcie's Food Files says

Ashley @ My Food 'N' Fitness Diaries says
Mmm that fruit dip looks SO good!! I don’t know if I’ll get to apple picking this year, but there’s TONS of apples in the grocery stores, so I definitely am taking advantage of that.
Claire says
i just made those cupcakes last night! They are so deeeeelicious! great recipe!
Kristen @ notsodomesticated says
I REALLY want to make that apple crisp! I have all of the ingredients in the house right now … except the apples haha! ;) Maybe I’ll just make the crisp part. :P
Courtney says
The crisp part is my favorite anyways ;)
Julie H. of Spinach and Sprinkles says
I’m going to have to check all of these out, the creamy fruit dip looks like it is perfect for this girl!
Astrid says
I made your fruit dip for some friends this summer and we all loved it! As for apples, I made an apple cake about a week ago…heavenly!
Jess @ Jess Go Bananas says
Lazy Saturdays beat Lazy Sudays’ butt! lol
Apples supply the best recipes…especially in the fall! :)
Yaara says
OMG!! Courtney–I just read your caramel apple cookie recipe–I am drooooling!! Thanks–by the way for getting back to me–I e-mailed you about my foot injury. It’s getting a little better–I’ve been able to run on it a little and do a bit of kickboxing–here and there–but am trying to incorporate more swimming to let it heal. Have a great night!!
Courtney says
No problem, Yaara! Glad you’re feeling better :)
colleen laquay urbaniuk says

Courtney says
Mmmmm, I have had that kind before and it’s VERY addicting!
Lena says
The pictures of all these baked goods is making me hungry in the middle of the night.
kristen says

Kelly says
WOW! That apple crisp stole the show for me!!! Delish!
Brittany says
I made your cupcakes this weekend – they were delicious! :) The frosting ended up a little bit sweet, and I only had a white cake mix at home, so i sorta had to improvise… but still, super yummy :)
