Apple

This galette is just as delicious and impressive as a pie, but half the work. The apples get a quick toss in fragrant fennel seeds and vanilla before filling the rustic, flaky crust.

Apples, blueberries, and almonds make this a filling, satisfying, healthy breakfast.

A honey-shellacked chop, a sharp salad to break through the porky richness, and—best news yet—just one pan and bowl to clean.

This is a dessert you'll make over and over in the fall when interesting apples fill the farmers’ market; but the Calvados sauce ensures it even makes out-of-season apples sing.

This dinner is a fry-up, of sorts. The smell of apples and smoked bacon frying on a damp day brings everyone into the kitchen, plate in hand.

I know a salad of Brussels sprouts sounds mirthless, but I urge you to give it a chance. It has enough citrus, almonds and rough-skinned apple to be interesting.

Boneless chicken thighs cook in an apple-thyme sauce until they’re tender, then get served on top of a crispy, large-format potato pancake. You’ll finish it off with a squeeze of lemon and fresh herbs.

If you're the type who prefers desserts that go heavy on the fruit, this apple tart's for you.

This velvety lentil stew, brightened with shredded apple and fresh ginger, is the antidote to holiday excess.

Whatever fruit you have on hand—pears, berries, figs, grapefruit—will fare beautifully in this sheet cake, which is as good for breakfast as it is dessert.

Imagine a mash-up of cinnamon toast, bread pudding, and pie. Now grab whatever fruit you have lying around (from berries and stone fruit to apples and pears) and make it.
