Let's talk about food! What are you favorite Fall foods and desserts?
Re: Favorite Falls Foods
I love hot chocolate, sweet lattes, white mochas if they're sweet. My coffees have to taste like dessert in order for me to like it. (I'm weird, I know) I love soups with grilled cheese, casseroles, pot pies, etc. All of these things remind me of fall.
I am not a big pumpkin person. I just don't care for the pumpkin flavoring in stuff like pie, coffees, cookies, spices etc.
Of course these are foods you can make year-round, but we typically have them often during the fall, so I associate them with the fall.
Crab Dip-almost every football sunday
Apple crisp
Pumpkin bread, cupcakes, really anything I think might taste good with some pumpkin added!
Baked goods. I stop baking in the summer because it just gets too hot. I like warm apple cider with rum and spices. I like pumpkin, but it's nothing I go crazy over.
Apples - lots and lots of apples.
I can't wait to get back to baking. I lost my sweet tooth the moment I got pregnant, and then my energy went with it, so my time in the kitchen has been virtually non-existent this year. I can't wait to make pumpkin cream cheese muffins, cookies, brownies, and more. I miss my KitchenAid mixer!
Last fall I discovered honeycrisp apples and how much I loved them - I can't wait to get my hands on them again. They're particularly delicious when paired with a peanut butter yogurt dip I tried last year. Nomnom.
Stews, chilis, and hearty soups are also on my mind lately. But that could also be tied to my eagerness to get back into the kitchen, as referenced above.
What are honeycrisp apples?
We typically go apple picking so I make a lot of apple crisp, baked apples, apple pie, etc. I also love everything pumpkin and we use the crock pot a lot for dinners.
