You may be thinking: 10 Ways to Use Apple Butter in March? It’s not really apple season, Gina.

Yeah, I hear ya. It’s not really anything season in NY this time of year though (major eye roll) and while maybe an oddly timed post, I find condiments to be one of the few things that get me through this in between seasons time where everything feels gray, dreary and you start to lose hope that spring will ever actually arrive. As far as condiments go, apple butter definitely makes my top 5 list (along with honey mustard, ketchup, sriracha and Laughing Cow cheese <– don’t judge). So what better way to celebrate it than a post dedicated to the best recipes that use it?

10 Ways to Use Apple Butter

There are so many ways to use apple butter, it’s one of my faves partly because of its versatility. It can go either sweet or savory, be used simply as a spread (like on these paleo pumpkin english muffins) to enhance flavors or, as an integral part of a recipe. I’ve rounded up 10 recipes that make it shine from appetizers to breakfast to entrees and dessert. Enjoy!
