Cheddar Apple Chicken Soup — the perfect fall soup that features apple chicken sausages, apples, apple cider, sharp cheddar cheese, and delicious fall spices.

I love when my daughter gets in the kitchen cooking. She comes up with so many amazing recipes. This soup recipe came about when we were trying to do something new with chicken apple sausages. She created a soup that everyone is going to love.

The flavor combos are perfect for fall, but you can truly eat this soup any time of the year.

How to Make Cheddar Apple Chicken Soup

Start by dicing your onion and throwing it in a dutch oven with some oil. Slice the sausages and add to the same pot. Saute together until the onions are soft and the sausages have a little color on them.

Next, add in the wine to deglaze the pan. Let it cook for 3 minutes to cook out the alcohol.

Now, dice the apples and add them along with the chicken broth and apple cider to the pot.

Cook for 20 minutes. Your apples should start softening at this point. Remove the sausage and set it aside.

Take the apple chunks out and blend them in a blender. Add back to the soup.

Take one cup of water and add 2 tablespoons of corn starch to the water. Mix together and add to the soup. Also, add in the shredded cheese.

Cook for 15 more minutes until the soup is heated through and has thickened some.
