Fall is my favorite time of year, not only for the cooler temperatures, but for the food I get at the local fairs. If you aren't able to get to your local fair, don't worry. I've got recipes for some of my favorite fall fair food. Enjoy!

Funnel Cake
There are two foods I just have to have at a fair: corn dogs and funnel cakes. There's nothing like a big 'ol hunk-en corn dog dipped in mustard, washed down with freshly made lemonade and followed-up with, you guessed it, a funnel cake. Funnel cakes are good just with powdered sugar or topped with cinnamon and apple pie filling. Eating an antacid later is a good idea, too.

Caramel Apples
Another must, if I plan to be at a fair all day. Lately, it's been more of the after school, 4 p.m., until 9:00 p.m. time at the fair for me. I can only eat so much in a couple of hours. The best caramel apples are rolled in chopped, salted peanuts.

Candied Apples
Candied Apples are the ones with the deep red-crunchy outsides. They're a little spicy, too.

Fried Pies
You can't always find fried pies at a regular fair or carnival. I generally find them at local festivals, which may or may not have big rides like Ferris wheels. They're easy enough to make at home with this recipe.
