the Flavors of Fall
I can’t believe tomorrow is the first day of Fall! The weather in Dallas has cooled (slightly); Starbucks has busted out the pumpkin spice latte for the season. All I’m waiting for is the leaves to change color.
One of the reasons Fall is my favorite season is that there are so many autumny foods to look forward to. Thought I’d share some flavors of Fall with you. I can’t tell you how hungry I got when I was compiling these shots.
1 / maple bacon donuts
2 / maple popcorn
3 / homemade graham crackers with maple buttercream
1 / apple dumplings with homemade caramel sauce
2 / mini pork and apple pies
3 / brussel sprouts with cider vinegar sauce
1 / ricotta carrot cake whoopie pies
2 / pumpkin spice coffee creamer
3 / butternut and feta muffins
1 / gingerbread butter
2 / gingerbread mini donuts
3 / gingerbread café au lait
Hope this inspires you to create something this weekend. Enjoy the first day of Autumn!

On a side note, I’m really digging the brush shapes/splotches I used in the graphics today. I can’t take credit for them: I got them as a free download from Creature Comforts. They even have an instructional video teaching you how to use them!
Oh goodness! Just made the ricotta carrot cake whoopie pies. SO GOOD! New favorite cookie!!!
Oh that’s great to hear! Hmm…I think you just inspired me to try that recipe out too!
Wow! I’ve never heard gingerbread butter or most of those things listed….Now, I’m hungry!
Yum! Hope you’re feeling better! miss you!
Ricotta. Carrot Cake. Whoopie pies. I did not think it possible for my mind to be blown so early in the morning! Trying these (and likely most of these) asap!!!!!
They sounded delicious to me too! I’d love to know how they turn out.
Um, wholly kao indeed! What a beautiful reminder of the yum to come… in autumn. Hah!
No kidding! And now that the weather is a bit cooler, it’ll be more bearable to bake these goodies!
