Turn your traditional apple pie recipe on its head (literally) with an upside down apple pie. This recipe combines an apple pie with another fall favourite: a pecan pie.

This will take a little more time than your regular apple pie but it is worth every second to get this delicious cinnamon apple goodness. You will need to roll out your regular pie crust and spread it over with a cinnamon sugar mixture before rolling it up and slicing it to get your cinnamon rolls – this will form the crust of your pie. Follow this recipe for an incredible cinnamon roll apple pie which will definitely become a firm favourite.
Add some berry goodness to your fall dessert with an apple and blackberry pie. Especially in the fall when you can pick your own blackberries, they are the perfect addition to your pie recipe. Stew your blackberries in with the apples to really let their tastes blend together with the cinnamon and sugar. Try this recipe, which also uses stem ginger to add an extra dimension to this classic taste.
Most apple pie recipes use piles of melted butter, milk and egg washes, so if you’re eating a plant-based diet, an apple pie can seem a bit out of reach. However, a vegan apple pie is equally as easy to make, and just as tasty. Substitute in vegan butter and coconut oil to achieve the same crispy, flaky pie crust without the animal products and you’ll get a great result. Try this easy, vegan recipe to get a delicious plant based apple pie.
