There are apples and then there are Vermont grown apples! I have spent many years picking (and sampling) my way through many of our amazing orchards, leaving with a full belly and plans for pies, apple sauce, chutneys and apple cakes swirling through my head. With more than 150 varieties grown in Vermont there are many flavors, colors, and textures to explore. A Vermont orchard is a foodie’s paradise.

Our simple recipe for Cinnamon Apples with Maple Syrup makes the perfect after-school snack, dessert or mid-day pick me up.
