We’re in the thick of the holiday season, which for most of us means lots of treats and desserts! Apple pie is a staple holiday dessert, and we can understand why, but sometimes it’s fun to try something new! If you find yourself wanting an apple dessert but not a pie this year, you’re in luck. We’re sharing some apple treats that are perfect for the holiday season.
