My Favorite Recipes for Fall
I just love fall! The crisp cool air, the colors of the leaves, the fresh picked apples, pumpkin spice everything...
There are so many wonderful tastes that I associate with fall-- apples, pumpkins, cranberry, pecan, turkey, and squash... and I just love them all.
Here are some of my absolute favorite recipes for fall.
1. Apple pie! I am pretty particular about apple pie and prefer my mom's recipe (that I once shared here).

1. Apple pie! I am pretty particular about apple pie and prefer my mom's recipe (that I once shared here).
2. Apple crisp. Apple crisp is a real close second behind apple pie. I love the crunchy crumbly topping and that fact that it goes together much quicker than apple pie. When I'm craving warm apple goodness and don't have the energy to make a pie I turn to apple crisp; but I like mine with extra crumb topping.
3. Pecan Crusted Chicken. I love the crunch of the pecans with the tender chicken cutlet and that hint of cinnamon just makes this dish perfect for fall!
4. Leftover Turkey Pie. It has become a tradition in our house to make enough extra food on Thanksgiving to make at least 2 turkey pies! We take all the leftovers from Thanksgiving and layer them into a delicious "pie."
5. Chocolate Chunk Butterscotch Blondies. I stumbled upon this recipe last year when I found some Boo-ttersctoch M&M candies at Target last yer. They were gone in no time because they were so darn delicious!
I have a few other recipes that I just love and have not yet gotten around to sharing. I hope to have them linked up soon but thought I'd list them here anyway!
- Chocolate chip pecan pie-- yep, that ooey, gooey, pecan pie with added chocolate chips!
- Butternut Squash muffins
- Holiday stuffing with pecans and craisins
- Pumpkin cheesecake
- Pumpkin delight-- a light layered dish with cool whip, pudding, and a pecan crust
- Crock pot turkey breast
- Apple spice cupcakes with homemade caramel buttercream frosting
- Snickerdoodle cupcakes with cinnamon buttercream frosting
- Pumpkin spice Mousse Squares (I had to add these to the list once I made them!: I can not stop eating them).
What are your favorite fall recipes? Any suggestions as to what we should try next?

Yum! We do extra turkey for leftovers, too, but I turn ours into Turkey Enchilada Casserole. Again, probably that California Hispanic influence.
ReplyDeleteWe just recently started cooking turkey breasts in the crock pot and I have some leftover turkey around that I am hoping to make a turkey tetrazzini with.
DeleteYum! I'm definitely craving some apple crisp :)
ReplyDeleteMe too! I have yet to make any this year.
DeleteOh man, all of these look so good! I've never made apple crisp, but I may just have to now!
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty good; especially with ice cream and warm caramel sauce on top!
