375+ Autumn Recipes, Techniques & Tips

Autumn is my favorite season. As the air snaps and the light begins to slant, there’s nothing I love more than the hum of a busy kitchen. Whether you’re looking for a Sunday showstopper like Pork Loin in the Style of Porchetta or a batch of Spiced Cider Doughnuts to go with your morning coffee, you’ve hit the mama-lode.

I’ve spent four decades hosting and almost as many testing recipes to make them as foolproof as they are delicious. From the rustic simplicity of Ukrainian Chicken Dumpling Soup to the towering, spicy perfection of my famous Pumpkin Cake with Maple Cream Cheese Frosting, I’ve gathered my most trusted dishes to help you celebrate the season without the stress.
