salted caramel sauce

I use salted caramel in a lot of recipes, but I thought it would be nice to have it in it’s own “stand-alone” post, so you can easily find it for future use!

pumpkin pie (dairy free, egg free, gluten free)

Hey friends! Here’s another project that stemmed from my bro-in-law being on an elimination diet during the Fall season. (Remember I shared the dairy free pumpkin spice ice cream here). I didn’t want him to be left out on Thanksgiving (us Canadians celebrate in October!), so I started testing out different versions of pumpkin pie.

apple pecan cinnamon swirl coffee cake

Life on the farm has been in full swing for the two months now!! Apples galore!! Cider making!! Squash and corn and potatoes and more!! Hence the wee break I took….ha! And our apple u-pick is nearly done, so so crazy. I’m already missing walking through our orchard at peak harvest. There’s truly nothing like it!

an autumnal gathering in the orchard // pumpkin bundt cake recipe

I’ve always dreamed of setting up a table in our apple orchard, filled with sweet Autumn treats, with candlesticks and gold accents, and with a string or two of lights swaying above. For years now, I’ve thought about it. How dreamy it would be. Perhaps for my birthday I would think. And each year, the chaos of Fall would take over, and I just couldn’t seem to find the time or energy.

plum crumb pie (with cardamom)

Let’s first acknowledge the fact that it is no longer italian plum season. I know this, okay? I made this pie a couple months ago, and it got lost in the chaotic-ness that is my life during the Fall harvest season on our farm. But guess what? If you have frozen plums (kudos to you for thinking ahead!), they work perfectly! And you could also swap in red plums, which I’ve been seeing all over the grocery store in the past couple of weeks. Yay! Pluots would work well with this recipe as well. So many options!
