    I’m intrigued by this honey recipe! I just got a bottle of Bee Free Honee to try which is also made with apples so I’d love to see your version!

    1. I’ve heard of the Bee Free, but I’m not sure how it would compare…I imagine my version would be cheaper though! 🙂

  5. Alright so I’m just going to come out and say this, reading your blog just MADE my week. I can’t have gluten, dairy or soy, so I’ve been eating paleo. And normally when I see yummy treats on WIAW, I can’t have them. But I thought, let me just look at the fudge recipe. I can eat it!! Those will be happening in my house sometime this month along with the raw brownies. You are awesome.

    1. Hahaha, you just made my day Rachel! Let me know if you try it out! 🙂

  6. Yummy eats! That vegan apple honey sounds really good! My favorite ways to use honey are in yogurt and oatmeal and as a topping for bread.

    That fudge looks amazing!!!! Going to try that out for sure!

    Lovely looking eats mm..i really wanna try spaghetti squash; im gonna try and pick some up next time im out food shopping

  9. I can’t seem to find the honey recipe 🙁

    1. So sorry! It’s up now! 🙂

  10. Hi, Lauren! WOw! YOur day of eats looks amazing! That casserole esp caught my attention! I love meals like that…just dump everything in, stick in the oven, and voila..yum-o! Haha..I remember you saying Halloween is your favorite day!! Can’t wait to see your post on that day 😉

  11. That apple juice honey is so creative! I can’t wait to try it! I want to give it a shot with other juices too… I just got some pineapple juice from Trader Joe’s and it bet that would make a delicious “pineapple honey.”

    1. Thanks Lauren! Yeah, I’ve thought of doing it with orange juice as well. Pineapple sounds really good too!

  12. The Apple Honey looks AMAZING! THANKS a bunch for the idea!!! Do you have a horrible time cleaning the saucepan afterwards? How do you reheat the honey before serving? Do you just remove the bit you’d like and warm it on the stove?

    1. Thanks so much Brittany! I’ve not had a tough time with the pan. I usually don’t reheat it, I just keep it in a bowl on the counter and use it in place of honey. If you wanted to reheat it, I’d just put it in a non-stick skillet and warm it a bit that way. I hope you enjoy it! 🙂

  13. how long will it last in the fridge?

    1. Hi Jenny,

      It should be good for a couple of weeks or more!

  14. I have made apple honey many many many times now and mine never looks like the consistency that yours is. May I ask what your favorite brand of Apple juice to use is? I have also tried many different juice brands. However, let me add that we love this stuff! My daughter eats it with a spoon!! I am just always striving to get mine to look like yours!
    Thanks!

    1. Hi Jess,

      There’s no particular brand, however, I am sure to buy 100% organic, unfiltered apple juice. It should have that cloudy look on the bottom, where you need to shake the bottle in order to redistribute the sediment. There should be no other ingredients added! Hope that helps, and I’m glad you guys like it!

      1. Thank you so much for your reply! Okay, that I should exactly what I buy! I’m wondering is I could make hardened apple honey candy…..

        1. That is exactly what I buy***

        2. I’ve not tried that, but do let me know if you have any luck! 🙂
