10 Easy Recipes to Bake This Fall

September 24, 2020 by Marilena Leavitt Leave a Comment

Greek feta cheese bread 10 easy recipes to bake this fall

With the warm days of summer behind us we are now getting ready for the cooler temperatures, the longer nights, and all the comfort food dishes of the fall.  When the seasons change, our cooking patterns change as well:  we crave more warming  dishes, like stews, soups, pot pies, and, we spend more time baking!

I have put together a list of 10 easy recipes to bake this fall:  from breakfast, to easy savory and sweet tarts and galettes, to yummy appetizers, hearty breads and to delicious desserts.  As our focus now turns to the abundance of fall produce, let’s make the most of the season, by heading to the kitchen, turning on the ovens, and baking something delicious!

 10 easy recipes to bake this fall 

Apple – Cinnamon Pull-Apart Bread

A soft and tender brioche dough, brushed with melted, browned butter and sprinkled with brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and diced apples.  This is an impressive looking bread, with an unusual assembling technique and the perfect accompaniment for your morning coffee or afternoon tea!

Comforting and Healthy Baked Oatmeal with Walnuts

Thirty minutes is all it takes for this healthy, baked oatmeal to come out of the oven to table.  Perfect with a drizzle of milk, topped with some mixed berries, or, if you love yogurt, with a tiny dollop of yogurt on top!

Greek Feta Cheese Bread

If you are tired of baking sourdough bread during these last few months, or you simply want a change, this Greek flat bread is a must for you to try.  It is straightforward, requires no kneading, and is absolutely delicious!

Easy Puff Pastry Tart with Caramelized Onions and Gruyère Cheese

Caramelized, sweet and golden onions, sautéed mushrooms with fresh thyme, a couple of very thinly sliced potatoes and plenty of nutty Gruyère cheese make a delicious topping to a this easy puff pastry tart.

Addictive Cheese Straws

The dough for these delicious cheddar cheese straws comes together really fast in a food processor.  Just roll out the dough on your countertop and cut it into strips with a decorative pastry cutter or a simple pizza cutter.  These cheesy treats are perfect to have with a glass of wine on a cool fall evening!

Leek, Mushroom and Goat Cheese Galette

A wholesome, flaky dough that can be made ahead of time, and a delicious filling of sweet leeks, mushrooms and goat cheese.  This rustic, free-formed tart is literally full proof even to for a beginner baker!

Crispy Filo Rolls with Spinach, Leeks and Feta Cheese

These crispy leek, spinach, and Feta cheese filo rolls are a take on the traditional spinach and Feta cheese triangles. They are super easy and fun to put together even if you have never worked with filo before!Crispy Leek, Spinach and Feta Filo Rolls

Easy Challah Bread

Even thought you can find this iconic Eastern European bread in most bakeries, nothing beats a good, homemade loaf of Challah straight from your oven!

No-Knead Buttermilk Bread Rolls

The rolls have a wonderfully soft texture, are slightly sweet, and are so fun to pull apart and share.  All you need is a bowl to mix everything together and they don’t even require any kneading.

Easy Pear and Pecan Puff-Pastry Tart

What makes this pear tart so luscious is an all-butter, puff-pastry base and the brown butter-brandy sauce that is used as both the pastry base and a glaze for the pears.
