Fall Flavors
What food means Fall to you?
Based on the huge number of pumpkin recipes I’ve seen in magazines and blogs lately, it’s the Fall flavor of choice for many. However, I get tired of pumpkin very quickly – in fact, I made a few loaves of pumpkin bread a few weeks ago and that seems to have satisfied my pumpkin craving for now. (Although I’m sure it will return in time for Thanksgiving dessert!)
For me, the food that truly says Fall is cranberries. The brilliant red tart-sweet berries are the flavor of crisp autumn mornings. Mornings when the bright sun beacons me, enticing me to enjoy my coffee outside on the deck, but the chill in the air sends me quickly back indoors.
So when I saw this recipe in the September issue of Fine Cooking magazine, I filed it away, saving it for an upcoming Fall day.
Yesterday was that beautiful, bright Fall day. I pulled the magazine out and baked a panful of Fall deliciousness.
The recipe is pretty easy – several steps are involved, but none that are difficult. The result is a gorgeous pan full of ruby red and toasty Fall flavors that were enjoyed by the whole family.
Except Austin, who won’t eat anything with nuts.
That’s all right though – it just means more for me!
