If you still haven't had your fix of delicious fall fare, you'll want to head to a Potbelly Sandwich Shop location to try the chain's new Apple Cider Donut Sundae.
Just as the name suggests, the new Apple Cider Donut Sundae is a deliciously seasonal take on a classic dessert. However, instead of ice cream on the bottom, the sundae is flipped upside down so that the base is made up of an apple cider ring donut that's been drizzled with salted caramel apple butter. The whole thing is then topped with a creamy scoop of vanilla ice cream, with the option to swap in frozen yogurt if that's your preference.
