This time of year, apples are so abundant and crisp and sweet, that Jessica had to think up things to do with the delicious fruit.
Nothing is cozier than a bowl of oatmeal, and this fall-inspired apple cinnamon dish can be whipped up in a slow cooker.
It smells heavenly, and can even last you the whole week if you portion it out!
