Apple Cider Cheese Fondue

Calling all my cheese lovers! This fall-inspired cheese fondue is becoming a family favorite at our house. Serve it with apples, bread, and pretzel sticks for the perfect appetizer.

Why We Love This Recipe

I grew up eating fondue. My Mom made it during the holidays and it always brings back fond memories. In fact, it was one of the highlight meals Vince and I had on our honeymoon. I love the silkiness of the nutty gruyere cheese with all of the flavors and textures of different dippers.

It’s easy and fun and it’s family-friendly. We’ve replaced the traditional white wine that is in most cheese fondue for apple cider. The apple cider still provides the background tart flavor so it’s a great substitute for wine.

Try in for your next family game night – It will certainly be a big hit.

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips

• While apple cider is best stored in the refrigerator, I recommend taking the amount needed out of the refrigerator and starting with room-temperature cider.
• You can easily substitute hard cider or white wine for the apple cider.
