What is everyone making in October?

 

[jenniferlynne]

Spiced Pumpkin Tartlets!!!! These are wonderful!! The Turkey Cranberry Ring is also a big hit.

 

[sarahmarie]

I am going to feature the Deep covered baker and knives by doing the microwave caramel apple pudding. I am also looking forward to getting the pie plate to make the upside down apple pie.

What are the pumpkin tartlets? sound fabulous.

I need savory recipes though. I just really like sweets!

I love pumpkin! I love fall!

 

[jenniferlynne]

Spiced Pumpkin TartletsHere they are. I never use the orange when I make them. They are a huge hit. If you don't have the stoneware muffin pan, you can use the mini muffin pan, they will just have a different look (they will look like the crust for the savory mini quiches).

 

[jenniferlynne]

Sarah,

You said you were looking for savory. Here are the recipes that I am offering right now. The desserts on the second page are all very quick and easy. They are things that I can make part of the recipe at home before I come so that I don't have to bake two things at the host's home.

The caramal apple pudding is a good idea..that went over big at my open house. What do you do while it cooks for a total of 25 minutes?

 

[jenniferlynne]

Play some games and talk about the new products I guess. I didn't realize it took that long. Doesn't that go in the microwave? Wow. That is a long time. Maybe you could make that first and then make a cool veggie pizza or something that does't require baking.

Where do I find the carmel apple pudding recipe? Did you say you used the new covered deep baker?

 

[jenniferlynne]

fall recipeI have been making the caramel apple cake (found on www.joycesfinecooking.com website under the heading of Pampered chef. People love it, and I got 6 bookings from a show with 8 people last month because of the family skillet.
here is the recipe

Caramel Apple Cake

2 (8 oz) cans Pillsbury Refrigerated flaky Biscuits (not grands)

1/2 cup pecans (or you can use mixed nuts)

1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1 stick melted butter or margarine

2 tbsp. light corn syrup

1 medium Granny Smith apple

Mixture of 2tbsp. sugar and 2 teaspoon cinnamon

Melt butter in family skillet. Add brown sugar and corn syrup. Mix. Chop nuts and sprinkle on top. Core apple, chop, and sprinkle on top (use apple peeler corer and then chop up apples) Put sugar and cinnamon mixture in batter bowl or large bowl of colandar and bowl set. Toss biscuits in mixture. Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes in the skillet. Remove from oven and invert on platter. (I invert onto large round stone if you want!!

It is an easy recipe and they love it...and great for fall!!

Thank you ladies!! I was in need of some dessert recipes for fall. I'm not a huge "Halloween" fan - I prefer fall themes instead.

 

[jrstephens]

I have a brunch scheduled so far. I am doing the Western Brunch Pizza in the Stoneware Insiraptions Cookbook. And I am doing Ghost in the Graveyard that I found on here.

pumpkin cream cheese squaresI doubled this recipe and was going to take it to work because i didn't think that my children would like it. Huh, well, they loved it and so did their friends. It is delicious!

 

[gilliandanielle]

Spiced pumpkin loaves from Stoneware Inspiration! They are SO good!

 

[lkspeir]

I don't have a mini loaf stoneware pan - I guess it's ok to bake these in the 6 cup stoneware muffin pan??

 

[jaye]

I would think so, but I have never done it. You might have to adjust the bake times but if you just watch them they'll be okay.

[strganac]

Where did you find the pumpkin cream cheese squares recipe at?

 

[ILOUANGOUDOM]

I don't have the Stoneware Sensation CB...do you mind posting the recipe for the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Squares? Thanks.

 

[melindag]

Spiced Pumpkin Tartlets!!!! These are wonderful!! The Turkey Cranberry Ring is also a big hit.

I'm trying to find the cookbook this recipe is in - can somebody tell me?!

 

[PamperedPeggy]

Question for Karlene re Caramel Apple CakeDo you leave the Flaky Rolls whole and toss them in the cinnamon mixture? Do you then just lay them in the skillet before baking? Sounds like a good recipe.

 

[BethCooks4U]

Do you leave the Flaky Rolls whole and toss them in the cinnamon mixture? Do you then just lay them in the skillet before baking? Sounds like a good recipe.

I made this awesome recipe and it was gone in no time (only 3 of us here - lol).

I cut the biscuits in half, coated them with the cinnamon/sugar, put the biscuits in the skillet (I used the 10" - promotes the set) and then put the rest of the cinn/sugar on top and tossed it all once more, then baked it.

OMG!! It is awesome!

 

[ILOUANGOUDOM]

Can you post the recipe for the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Squares? Thanks. I would love to try this.
