25+ Fantastic Fall Recipes

Mmmm. From Craberry Apple Crisp with Oatmeal Streusle to Eggplant and Chicken Puttanesca Snacks these recipes will make your mouth water. Sweet, savory, rich and creamy these recipes are great for crowds, small gatherings, or lunch!

I read through these and they are mostly easy to make with simple ingredients. Many of them have items that can be found at the Farmer's Market in the fall. I love buying fresh produce from the FM I get such a good deal on it!

I just can't wait to try the applebutter recipe!

Stay green,

SERVINGS
Yields 3 1/2 cups

INGREDIENTS
5 pounds cooking apples, cored and quartered
1 cup apple cider
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar

PREPARATION
1. Combine the apples, cider, and orange juice in a large Dutch oven and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until apples are soft -- 30 to 40 minutes.

2. Remove the pan from the heat. In small batches, puree the apples and any cooking liquid through a food mill.

3. Return the puree to the Dutch oven, add the sugars, and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook, still stirring, until the puree thickens slightly -- about 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low, partially cover, and simmer for 1 hour.

4. Transfer the butter to a clean jar and cool completely. Store refrigerated for up to 1 month.
