Baked Pumpkin Donuts with Maple & Brown Sugar Glaze
Whether you’re thinking about some easy treats to celebrate Halloween this weekend or on to fall recipes to get you through November, I’ve got a great one for you today. These Baked Pumpkin Donuts with Maple & Brown Sugar Glaze are so fun, so yummy and so not fried. Yes, yes, the fabulous fried donut will always have a place in my heart (I’m lookin at you classic glazed,) but sometimes you just need an easier, slightly less sinful option to whip up at home. Not to mention, much less time consuming. But still hits the spot for the timeless treat.

Who’s jumped on the sourdough bandwagon? I’ve definitely been bitten by the bug and have gotten back into a lot more bread baking during the pandemic. And if you’ve seen some of the previous posts, when it came to sourdough, I was more in favor of getting in on the trend if not for the sole reason of having the discard to use for fabulous recipes like these crackers.
Well that might not be the case any more. Not now that I’ve been using my wonderfully ripe and active starter to turn out boule after boule of this Pumpkin Sourdough Bread with Cranberries & Pepitas. One slice of this, toasted up with a little butter, and many if not all of your worries will disappear, even if only for a moment. It’s so delicious and is a true fall treat for the sweet and savory lovers alike. There’s also not much to not love about it’s adorable shape.

I’m pretty excited to share my spooky little sweet treats with you today. Aren’t these Matcha Monsters and Purple People Eater’s, or PPE’s as I like to call them, cute? I am so happy with how my initial idea for these fun little guys came out. And they taste so good. Very similar to my classic shortbread, but with two fun flavor twists. Can you guess what they are?? You might have an idea about one. (I might have given it away in the name.)

Nothing better than a warm bowl of soup on a 90 degree day. Ha, just kidding. But you know what, we’re actually enjoying this soup now even though summer weather is still going strong in LA.
I’ve been making this Carrot Ginger Soup for years. In fact it was one of the first recipes on my Auntie Treats blog way back when. It really is a timeless winner. K and I enjoyed it pre-kids and now the four us all love it. Because really, there’s not much to not love here.
