Apple Soup Recipe
All you need to make this flavorful fall soup are a couple simple ingredients:
- olive oil
- ground sausage
- onion
- carrots
- celery
- bay leaf
- thyme
- allspice
- apple cider
- apples (like Jazz, Envy, Cosmic Crisp, Honey Crisp, etc.)
Autumn soup recipe
In a large stock pot, drizzle olive oil and sauté the ground sausage until it’s perfectly cooked through, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
Fall Soup Ideas
While your sausage is sizzling away, take a moment to chop up some onion, carrots, and celery into bite-sized pieces. Once the sausage is perfectly cooked, toss those veggies into the pot for a cozy fall soup.
Keep the heat at medium-high and let everything cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the onion becomes tender and aromatic. Then, it’s time to elevate the flavors—add a bay leaf, a sprinkle of ground thyme, and a dash of ground allspice.
Fall Soup Recipes
Pour apple cider over the vegetables while simmering over medium heat! If apple cider isn’t available, don’t worry—apple juice is a great substitute, although it may not have quite the same rich flavor.
Tip: To lighten up the sweetness or stretch the cider a bit, mix equal parts apple cider and chicken broth. This will give your dish a subtly milder taste.
Best fall soups
Now chop 3-4 hard, sweet, and tart apples—our favorites are Jazz, Envy, Cosmic Braeburn, or Honey Crisp. But honestly, any apple from your recent farm visit will do just fine!
Then, add in 5 ounces of craisins (dried cranberries) and keep it cooking over medium-high heat for another 10 minutes. As the mixture cooks, those apples will soften just a bit—but don’t let them turn mushy. Plus this will really help the flavors meld together beautifully!
Pro tip: The cranberries will soak up all the delicious juices and rehydrate as they cook.

Serve your autumn apple stew with bread for dipping up that delicious broth! YUMMY!
