But what is Autumn without Apples. It simply isn’t. Not without cinnamon, and warm spices to go along with it. So many varieties so many different flavors and very very many sweet ways of taking Autumn apples and turning them into even more heavenly creations. It’s only fitting today we share this simple and yummy…
Apple Cider Granola
Apple cider, it’s everywhere come Fall. And I’m not complaining one bit, in fact I can’t get enough of it. Warmed in a mug and swirled with a cinnamon stick for cozy movie nights, baked into fresh from the farm soft and cakey donuts, and cooked into a decadent caramel.

Browned Butter & Whiskey Banana Bread with Coconut
Banana Bread is a must in Fall, especially when it’s made with browned butter, whiskey & coconut!

Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato & Carrot Fall Soup {Sopa da Avo}

I first became hooked on salted caramel after I made this boozy version, and this ale one will make all your seasonal favorites even richer. I like the depth of flavor the pumpkin ale gives the salted dark amber caramel. Caramel…
Homemade Cardamom Applesauce
I just couldn’t stop myself from smelling the bubbling pot as apples cooked down to apple sauce. It just made me happy and smile. It made me look forward to Fall, a season I dread so much because of the cooler weather. With so many apples from our picking afternoon, I decided I needed to…
