25+ Warm Apple and Cinnamon Recipes To Make This Fall

1. Cinnamon Apple Cake

Nothing beats the smell of freshly baked cake wafting through the house. And when that includes the enticing aroma of cinnamon spice, it’s drool-worthy.

This cinnamon apple cake packs the best of fall into every forkful. And it’s super buttery, too, so you don’t need any glaze or frosting.

This cake makes it hard to stop at just one slice!

2. Cracker Barrel Fried Apples

If you’re looking for a quick fall treat, these fried cinnamon apples are just the thing!

Because you’ll cook them in apple juice, they’re exceptionally flavorful and apple-y. 

Basically, they’re an ooey-gooey apple treat that’s perfect for snacking.

Better yet, add them to your morning pancakes or serve them with a big scoop of ice cream. Yum!

3. Dutch Apple Pie

Warm, flaky crust. Plump apples. Cinnamon and sugar. That’s what you need to make the best apple pie.

And this Dutch apple pie has all that and more!

It’s impossibly thick and fruity, with so much filling, a small slice is more than enough.

This pie recipe is the perfect combination of sweet, tart, gooey, warm, and buttery. 

4. Applesauce Cake

Applesauce cake is the very definition of a classic fall dessert. It’s so good, you’ll want to make it every day.

It’s rich, soft, and chock-full of warm spices, raisins, and walnuts.

I like to use a mix of chewy raisins, currants, and sultanas. And they’re extra special soaked in rum! Still, it’ll taste amazing even without the extras.

5. Apple Brown Betty

Crunchy, sweet, and fruity, apple brown betty is like a cross between cobbler and apple crisp.

Apple crisp usually features oats in the topping, but this version is more like a streusel.

You’ll blend flour with sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg, then mix in butter until it forms a rough dough.

I like to add cinnamon to the apples, but it’s not mandatory. It’ll still be incredible with just the topping.

6. Easy Baked Cinnamon Apples

Craving a healthy, hearty cinnamon apple dessert that’ll warm your soul and fill your stomach? 

Then preheat your oven and bake these easy cinnamon apples!

Then, add a layer of cinnamon sugar and a chewy oat topping, and bake until crisp and gooey.

7. Apple Cinnamon Pork Chops

Speaking of delicious apple cinnamon recipes! These apple cinnamon pork chops are insanely comforting and deliciously filling.

The best part? This dish is ready in just half an hour!

There’s no better way to experience fall than with these caramel apple cinnamon rolls! The sweet, buttery scent of fresh-baked rolls is genuinely enticing.

They’re warm and gooey, with a delicious cinnamon-apple center that leaves you wanting more.

They’re also drizzled with decadent caramel sauce until they’re sticky and to die for. 

And when you take a bite, the crisp, browned exterior unravels to reveal the soft, chewy interior. Heavenly! 

9. Apple Strudel Muffins

Make fall mornings extra delicious with these apple strudel muffins.

Made with the classic apple and cinnamon combo, they’re the ultimate fluffy fall treat. And that strudel top is the best part!

Cinnamon apple desserts aren’t the only way to experience this deliciously warm and sweet combo.

Once it’s ready, you’ll have a jar of decadent apple butter that’ll last for months.

14. Apple Fritters

Crunchy on the outside, tender in the middle, and loaded with sweet apple flavor through and through. These apple fritters are a fall dream come true.

Fried doughnuts infused with sweet, tart apples in every bite? Yes, please!

Once they’re golden brown, you’ll toss them in cinnamon sugar for good measure.

Best served warm, they’re extra special if you drizzle over some glaze.

It’s the perfect fall dessert for dinner parties or a cozy night by the fire.

How incredible do these baked apple cider donuts look? From the fluffy middle to the sparkling sugar on top, they’re insanely decadent.

The batter features apple cider, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and more. Every mouthful is like a trip to the orchard!

They’re wonderfully tender and lack the greasy mouthfeel of deep-fried donuts.
