simple fall recipes :: a real food fall round up!

It doesn’t get much better than snuggling up newborn nursling sweetness 😉

I have to admit…as much as I am just eating up all of her sweet newborn smell, I am missing one of my favorite prepping/cooking/baking times of the year.

I am getting back on my feet a bit, but I am still very much enjoying my babymoon – as any mama should!

We’ll be doing some of the basics like batching up pumpkin purees and applesauce, but things will be a little lower scale this year as we enjoy this short newborn season of life this fall!

I gathered some of my favorite fall recipes for you all to try though! And I hope you will leave me some comments on some of your fall harvesting projects! And as you try some of these recipes please come back and let me know how they turned out!

Move over Starbucks! This Pumpkin Spice Coffee/Mocha is just as good!

Sure you can buy the stuff in the store, but making your own Pumpkin Purees is not only simple, but a TON of fun for the kids and will make your house smell incredible!  Includes how to toast up those pumpkin seeds too!

This Pumpkin Bread is the perfect fall morning breakfast!

Batch up this Pumpkin Soup and send it in the thermoses to school or work! Serve it for lunch on Halloween!

This Butternut Squash Soup is one of our family’s favorites!

Warm your house and make it smell like heaven with Baked Applesauce!

The kids will never know they are having a vegetable with sweet Roasted Maple Acorn Squash!

Stir this Pumpkin Apple Granola in your yogurt, serve it like cereal with cold milk, or just eat it by the handful!

Soaked Pumpkin Scones would be a special weekend morning breakfast with your coffee!

Happy fall!
