I’m not one of those pumpkin spice lovers per se, but I definitely think pumpkin pie is a holiday staple. But, it is also fun to mix it up sometimes and enjoy those holiday flavors in a new way! This vegan layered pumpkin mousse will not only satisfy that pumpkin pie craving, but is ridiculously easy to make.

Ginger Apple Pear Tarts
Fall dishes are usually filled with pumpkin spice, apple and cinnamon, stews and soups galore. But there are other flavor convos that make me feel warm and fuzzy inside too. These ginger apple pear tarts are a relatively light little treat, and bring on that feeling of the dog days of fall.
Vanilla Chai Pear Muffins
Autumn is here! Autumn is here! I won’t let the near 80 degree weather we currently have stop me from believing that. Tis the season for fall flavors, cozying up with a cup of tea, and a lot more baked goods. These Vanilla Chai Pear Muffins fit into all of those categories. And please believe me when I say these are one of the top three things I have ever baked.
Brandy Lemon Baked Plums
I don’t know about you, but the crisp mornings have arrived, but I still have a fridge full of stone fruit. Is it summer? Is it fall? I don’t know! But what I do know, is that these Brandy Lemon Baked Plums satisfy the neverending fresh fruit cravings of summer, and the cuddly, warmth of fast approaching autumn. Sometimes being stuck in the in between in a tasty place to be.
Lemon Blackberry Tartlets – Solar Eclipse
I don’t know about you, but the talk of the town around here in Portland has been alllll about the solar eclipse. I mean, hey, it doesn’t happen very often! With this beautiful state being in the path of totality, I’m mentally preparing for the traffic jams and surges of people this weekend, while feeling excited to see it myself. But you know another great way to prepare for this rare event? Bake festive treats! Such as these Lemon Blackberry Tartlets – Solar Eclipse Tarts.
