Hi everyone! I’m Erica from The Crumby Cupcake, My Cooking Spot’s newest contributor! I’m super excited to be here to share with you some of my best and favorite recipes, starting with these Pumpkin Spiced Sweet Potato Fries with Caramel Marshmallow Dipping Sauce!
Fall is an exciting time for so many reasons! One of my favorite though is that some of my favorite cooking ingredients come back! You could probably guess one, as it’s the flavor that takes the nation by storm every September: pumpkin. My other favorite is apple. But there are so many other fall flavors, too! So we decided to round up some of our favorite fall recipes.
Pumpkin Simple Syrup // Shiner Bock Chili
Homemade Pumpkin Applesauce // Spicy Tomato Soup
Pumpkin Marscapone Ravioli // Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins // Acorn Squash Souflee
Sweet Potato Bisque // Bites as Sweet as Pumpkin Pie
Oatmeal Apple Spice Cake // Sweet Citrus Baked Acorn Squash
What are your go to fall flavors?
I haven’t always been a sweet potato fan, and thinking about that now makes me a little sad because sweet potatoes are awesome and oh-so-versatile.
Now, I’m a huge proponent of breakfast, and when I was training for a marathon this spring, I started experimenting with foods to eat before and after long runs, including foods to eat the day before these behemoth workouts. (Because I quickly learned, if you’re running 16, 18, 20 miles? One meal the night before ain’t gonna cut it and give you all the goodness you need to make it through!)
