Absolutely loved these cupcakes. I love anything with fall spices and these give off a warm and rich scent as they bake. And the boiled cider is just to die for! Next time, I think I’ll use it as an additional garnish by drizzling a little over the top of the frosting. Recipe is from Tracey’s…

Devil Cupcakes
I found the idea for these on Facebook and made them a couple of years ago for my fiancee as a birthday present. They are sinfully rich. We took the leftovers to work (you really can’t have too many of them and you kinda need a tall glass of milk to wash them down with!)…
Chocolate Pumpkin Cake
While my cake came out looking not so hot thanks to not enough orange gel AND the fact that I only had 10-inch cake pans at the time (instead of the 8-inch that was listed in the recipe), it still tasted absolutely scrumptious. Recipe from the Little Epicurian. Recipe adapted from Country Living Makes 2- 8…
Roasted Butternut Squash Polenta with Fried Sage
I found this on Laura’s Best Recipes and since I love both butternut squash AND polenta, I decided to give it a try. Boy, she wasn’t kidding. It’s been a tradition on Thanksgiving ever since! Please note, I’ve used the image from her site because I don’t have a decent picture of this. That will be remedied…

Almond Flour Pumpkin Spice Muffins
These little delights were absolutely amazing considering they contained no wheat flour and were sweetened by Splenda and no sugar added apple sauce. I will say the sugar free frosting was a good addition. They were good without it, but great with. Since we do low carb a lot, it’s nice to have this recipe…
Lemon Cheesecake with Sugar Free Strawberry Topping
I came across these two recipes when searching for something to make for me and my boyfriend as a low-carb treat. I was skeptical, as I always am with low-carb desserts. They tend to be either great or disastrous. This was was a TOTAL hit! We took it over to our friends’ as a dessert…
Orange Cranberry Almond Flour Muffins
These turned out even better than I thought they would. I’m not quite sure how, but they actually were even light and fluffy! I made them for our camping trip, but will have to bake another batch already because we ate half of them last night! Yields 10-12 muffins adapted from Bran Appetit Ingredients 2 cups…
Pumpkin Spice Bread
I don’t even remember where I got this recipe from, I’ve had it for years, but oh my. It’s truly one of the best recipes I’ve ever made. Yield 32 servings Ingredients 3 cups sugar 1 cup vegetable oil 4 eggs, lightly beaten 1 (16 ounce) can solid pack pumpkin 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour…
