How to Make Apple Cider Cheddar Fondue
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese and 2 tablespoons cornstarch until well combined.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups apple cider and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the cider is just barely simmering (small bubbles around the edges).
- Gradually add the cheese mixture to the simmering cider, a handful at a time, stirring constantly until each addition is melted and smooth before adding more.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and a pinch of black pepper.
- Continue to cook and stir for 3-5 minutes, or until the fondue has thickened to your desired consistency.
- Pour the fondue into a fondue pot or a slow cooker set on low to keep warm.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dippers such as cubed cheddar cheese, waffle fries, sausage slices, and apple slices.
