You may be tempted to eat one straight off the tree, but let us convince you otherwise with these sinfully delicious recipes.

• Grilled Apple and Cheddar Panini
  Spread slices of raisin-walnut bread with Dijon mustard and form sandwiches with thinly sliced apples and extra-sharp Cheddar. Cook in butter in a skillet, turning once, until the cheese melts and the bread is crisp.

  Toss apple and red onion wedges with olive oil, salt, pepper, and fresh thyme sprigs. Roast at 400°F, tossing once, until tender, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Apple and Fennel Salad With Parmesan
  Toss thinly sliced apples and fennel with chopped fresh parsley, fresh lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Top with shaved Parmesan.
