Here's a little secret. I've never had pumpkin pie. Crazy, right? Well. What can I tell you? Growing up, pies were usually fruit based. We'd have apple pie, cherry pie, and others. Occasionally, we'd have pecan pie. But somehow, I never had a slice of pumpkin pie. And because, as an adult, I enjoy creating twists on traditional favorites, I didn't bother with pumpkin pie. Instead, I made Pumpkin Pie Trifle. Are you ready for the next shocker? Here goes: I don't love heavily flavored … [Read more...]

Maple Pumpkin Granola
There are certain foods which I seem to forget about for a while, then I remember them suddenly. And as I eat said food, I kick myself as I wonder why I don't make it more often. Like, every day, for example. My Spicy Baked Zucchini Sticks are a perfect example of this. They are among the most popular recipes on this blog, and for very good reason. And I often forget that I've got such a delicious and easy recipe in my repertoire. Then I make them, and I get all confused as to why I haven't been making them daily since the day I came up with the recipe. Well, it turns out that homemade granola is another such example. I've made homemade granola plenty of times in the past, and totally … [Read more...]
Pumpkin Butterscotch Cookies
I wish I had a great story to share with you about these cookies, but sadly, I don't. It was a minute of inspiration, caused by the can of pumpkin sitting on my pantry shelf. I wanted to make pumpkin cookies, but most of the recipes I found were more to the cakey side. I wanted cookies with a chocolate chip cookie type texture, and struck gold with this recipe. Then, I couldn't help throwing in some butterscotch chips, y'know, for some more awesomeness. The pumpkin flavor of these cookies is subtle, but it's definitely there. Add the cinnamon and butterscotch and you have the perfect fall cookie. Don't have butterscotch chips handy? Sub chocolate chips instead for a delicious pumpkin … [Read more...]
