Join the Love & Lemons Cooking Club Challenge this month! It's easy to enter, and one lucky winner will receive a prize. Find all the details below.
Our Cooking Club is a fun way to celebrate the Love & Lemons community of readers. The concept is super simple—each month, I choose a recipe. You make it, and you leave a comment on the recipe’s blog post. At the end of the month, I randomly select one winner to receive a prize.
I love the sense of community that comes from so many people cooking one recipe each month. We’re kicking off our September challenge today with our apple crisp recipe, and I hope you’ll join in the fun. Here’s how it works:

In addition, for every entry we receive, we’ll donate $1 to No Kid Hungry.
September’s Recipe: Apple Crisp
The temps have been cooling off around here, and though I can’t say I’m thrilled about summer ending, I have started looking forward to my favorite parts of fall. At the top of that list? A cozy, cinnamon-spiced apple crisp! I thought it would be fun to welcome the new season by making this recipe for our cooking club.
A couple notes:
- Firm apples are best here. My go-tos are Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Gala, and Golden Delicious.
- Make it vegan: Replace the unsalted butter with vegan butter or firm coconut oil. If you’re using vegan butter, omit the salt in the topping.
- Make it gluten-free: Use your favorite gluten-free flour blend instead of all-purpose flour.
And maybe it’s just me, but I don’t think any crisp is complete without a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. 🙂
