Slow Cooker Maple Applesauce
A small amount of maple syrup is the key to a wholesome applesauce that allows the natural sweetness and flavor of the apples to truly shine. My grandmother was always known for her amazing applesauce. She used transparent or “early” apples–the ones that appear in farmers markets here in mid-July. Their appearance never fails…

Coconut Pumpkin Granola
Pumpkin works as a tasty replacement for a portion of the sugar and oil in this crunchy granola, which offers just the right notes of sugar and spice! My go-to granola recipe is such a favorite, it takes a pretty terrific option for me to stray from my old standby. But as fall rolls…

No Bake Butterscotch Haystacks
Three ingredients are all you need for this salty-sweet, crunchy treat that takes mere minutes to make. No baking required!

When his science class organized a nature-themed bake…
