Many years ago, I bought an apple pie-scented candle that made my home smell as if I were baking the real thing. When the candle had burned completely, I tried to purchase another one just like it, but could no longer find it. I bought many scented candles from other brands, hoping to recreate that cozy, spiced aroma, but none matched the same intoxicating scent of that first candle.
Fortunately, you can still get that fragrance the old-fashioned way—by baking an apple pie, or any apple dessert seasoned with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspices. These nine apple desserts are perfect for crisp fall days and guaranteed to fill your home with the warm aroma of sweet, bubbling apples.
