Apple-Ginger Soup

If you like sipping on Apple Cider or eating applesauce, then you’re in luck —
this is like the soup version of apple cider and applesauce, just thicker and even fresher!

I had so many apples from my trip to the apple orchard this weekend (check out instagram for picts), so I needed to get creative stat!

Hot and spicy, with a hint of vanilla, cinnamon and ginger to warm you up from the inside-out.

This Apple-Ginger soup is perfect for a warm afternoon pick-me-up, or to serve before dinner. Great for kids and adults and SO SO easy to make!
