Although it’s not officially fall until September 22, our team is ready to start whipping up our favorite seasonal foods and drinks!
Warning: our key ingredients are pumpkin and apple, so if those aren’t your cup of tea, we’re going to stop you here. However, if you’re the type to add a little pumpkin flavoring to everything you can, dive right in. You’ll definitely enjoy!
Desserts:
Dessert is the most important part of every day. Whoops, we meant the most important part of every meal. Either way, this is the place we start our compilation of fall goodies!
- Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes that you’ll be dying to share with all your friends and family.
- Old Fashioned Pumpkin Pie and if you feel like mixing it up, add pecans!
- Apple Crisp with Caramel Sauce – enough said.
- Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins that can be either dessert or breakfast, whichever your heart desires.
- Caramel Apples can be homemade or bought from a local bakery or candy shop!
- S’mores + a bonfire + family and friends = a Saturday evening dream come true.
Drinks:
Grab one of these drinks, turn on your fireplace, and snuggle up with a book – the perfect fall scene!

Not sure about you, but once the fall weather starts to kick in, our brains go right to homestyle cooking. The kind of food that you pull out of the oven and it’s ready to enjoy.
