Suggestions / Recipe Tips
Any variety of apples will work for this recipe. I prefer something more tart, but hey, sweet works too.
Fresh apple cider is best. This is the perfect time of year to find some in markets and grocery stores.
Cinnamon and ginger are perfect for any fall recipe. You can play around with the amount, or add some cloves into the mix. Apple pie seasoning is also a great option.
Onion broth can be replaced with chicken broth.
Dried apples for garnish are such a great addition to this soup. You can also try dried cranberries or pumpkin seeds too.
Bacon oil adds such a nice little touch at the end. This is completely optional.
I used an immersion blender, but you can also use a regular blender. In a pinch, a potato masher will do, but the soup will not have the applesauce consistency.
This soup will last for several days stored in the fridge. Easily reheat in a pot on the stove or the microwave.

What a great time to discover this recipe. We were at the store and they are full of different kinds of apples. This soup sounds wonderful — it certainly is the first time I’ve ever run across anything like it. And I just told Hubby that I HAVE to restock on my bacon flavored olive oil — it is soooo good. Can’t wait to try out this soup.
