Our cupcake contributor, Lauren of Crave. Indulge. Satisfy., is here with a delicious new recipe…. One of my absolute favorite things about fall is eating pies! Apple, pumpkin, pecan, you name it and I will gobble it right up!

So when Carrie mentioned she wanted me to create an apple themed cupcake recipe for November, I immediately thought of apple pie! The two key ingredients in these cupcakes are apples of course, and the brown sugar cinnamon flavor that you will taste throughout in every layer from the cake, filling and buttercream. For all you apple pie lovers, not only are there apples in the cake, but there is an apple pie filling in the middle!

To finish off the final look, I used a refrigerated pie crust to create mini apple toppers sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar! If you are looking for a dessert for your Thanksgiving feast this is a great recipe to consider. Apple Pie Cupcakes with Brown Sugar Cinnamon Swiss Meringue Buttercream recipe by Lauren Kapeluck (makes 24 cupcakes) Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes with Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting. I know I know it is only September but I couldn’t wait any longer to indulge in some pumpkin baked goods. I blame it on Starbucks for getting me in the mood so early. They rolled out their pumpkin spice lattes last week and I’ve been all over it.

It’s my favorite fall drink and I think I’ve had at least 6 in the past week. Sheer indulgence! Plus it’s been in the 60′s here for weeks now so technically it’s fall. Usually I am all about produce you can harvest right now, which are apples at their beginning stages. These pumpkin cupcakes are plenty moist, flavorful and loaded with warm spices of the fall.

Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes with Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes 1⅔ cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon ¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature 1 cup packed light brown sugar ½ cup granulated sugar 1 cup pumpkin puree 2 large eggs, room temperature. Pumpkin Pie Crumb Bars. You might be looking at this post thinking I’m getting way ahead of myself. Maybe I am, but I blame those candle stores at the mall. You walk past their store and smell the scent of spiced pumpkin pie, but seriously people where’s is the pumpkin pie? I want the real thing. Those candles may smell good but definitely not as good as the real thing. Really I’d be happy to post a pumpkin recipe any day of the year. These bars are a bit more cookie than pumpkin pie filling (these are three layers, oatmeal cookie crumb layer followed by the pumpkin pie layer then it’s finished with more crumb) so if you’d prefer an equal amount you could probably make half the amount of crumb mixture and simply only do one bottom layer.

Ingredients 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/4 cups quick oats (old fashioned works too) 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking soda 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted 1 tsp vanilla extract Pumpkin Pie Filling Directions. Skinny Mini Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins. These mini pumpkin spiced muffins are made light with pumpkin puree and egg whites and loaded with chocolate chips in every bite! I don't know about you, but I'm so ready for Fall... cozy sweaters, boots and jeans, changing leaves, apple picking and of course pumpkin!

Even if it's still warm out, these mini pumpkin muffins will get you in the Fall spirit and they are perfect for breakfast with a Skinny Pumpkin Latte or to put into your kid's lunch box for a healthy, homemade snack. You can make them in a regular sized muffin tin if you prefer, you should get around 14 larger muffins and the nutritional info should remain the same. And if you want more pumpkin recipes, I have TONS, check out my Skinny Pumpkin Recipes in the Index or follow my Skinny Pumpkin Madness Pinterest Board.

Enjoy!! Ingredients: Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, combine flours, sugar, baking soda, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and salt with a wire whisk. Let them cool at least 15 minutes before serving. Healthy ‘Eatmore’ Fudge Squares @ Nutritionist in the Kitch. “Mmmmmm… they totally taste like Eatmore Bars!!” Said my hubby, and the name was born. Healthy ‘Eatmore’ Fudge Squares, because that describes them perfectly. A chewy, yet crunchy, sweet, chocolaty bottom, topped with a rich, fudgey (is that a word?!) , decadent, chocolaty layer, cut into a perfect little four bite square. YUM. This recipe is a perfect ‘I-need-a-little-treat-but-don’t-want-to-actually-have-a-bad-treat’ treat! I made these squares in about 15 minutes flat, after letting the dates soak for about half an hour (this step is optional but makes the bottom layer come together easier), and then popped the tray in the freezer for about 30 minutes.

I still have some hanging out in the freezer, even though I made this batch a couple weeks ago, and they still taste as good as they did the day I made them – they don’t actually freeze solid, they stay nice and firm, but easy to bite into, and soften up in about a minute at room temperature. Healthy ‘Eatmore’ Fudge Squares Enjoy! Christal.

Clean Eating Dark Chocolate “Turtles” …vegan & gluten free delights! @ Nutritionist in the Kitch. Who doesn’t love Turtles?! Nope I’m not talking about the cute little reptile… though, most people love those types of turtles too! I’m talking about the good old gimme-some-of-those “mmm..I love Turtles”, Turtles. They ARE delicious! But, sad face, they aren’t by any means good for you, or made with natural, whole ingredients.. as a matter of fact, let’s look at the ingredients in Nestle Turtles… SUGAR, PECANS GLUCOSE, MODIFIED MILK INGREDIENTS, COCOA BUTTER, COCOA MASS, MODIFIED PALM OIL, LACTOSE, SALT, SOYA LECITHIN, ARTIFICIAL AND NATURAL FLAVOUR. (taken from the Nestle website) Boooo.

So what’s in my “clean eating’ version of Turtles, that I promise you are JUST as delicious? … Dates, pecans, and pure dark chocolate.. that’s it, that’s all. A winner in the ingredient category I would say! I actually made these clean eating ‘Turtles’ to bring to a friends party the other weekend, and they were definitely a hit! So, really, what’s not to love?? Go make some turtles!! Enjoy! Christal. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough + Cupcake = The BEST Cupcake. Ever. Recipe. Karen's Cookie Dough Brownies Recipe. Grandma Kimbro's 2 Layer Cheesecake. We have a Guest Blogger today! My dear friend, Sue Godinez, is going to show us how to make her Grandma Kimbro's 2 Layer Cheesecake!

Grandma Kimbro was the nicest lady I have had the pleasure of knowing. She also had a great sense of humor...I'm convinced it's where I got mine. Grandma and Grandpa lived above their hardware store in Rosemead. I loved going to their house! I was about 15 years old when Grandma taught me how to make her cheesecake. We loved going to Grandma's house for Kimbro gatherings with all the Aunts, Uncles and Kimbro cousins. My grandma passed away when I was a senior in high school.

I wish my kids could have met her, they would have loved her! Hopefully, I can be the same kind of grandma to Payton, so she will bug her mommy and daddy to come see Grammy all the time like I used to do to my parents! Let's get cooking! Ingredients: Crust: 1 1/4 cup Lorna Doone Cookie Crumbs 1/4 cup melted butter Filling: 2 8 oz. packages softened cream cheese 1/2 cup sugar 3 eggs 2nd Layer: And it did!

A nice ganache topping with a sprinkling of salt makes this brownie just a bit more special! (recipe adapted from Allrecipes.com Mmm-Mmm Better brownies) Cream Cheese-Chocolate Chip Cookies. Because it's the weekend (at least according to the Baileys in my coffee), I'll keep this post short and sweet and simple. It's September. My birthday month. The month we're all snapped back into routine and reality (sometimes too harshly). We need the softness of chocolate chip cookies to help cushion the blow. Um...chocolate chunks and cream cheese?! Yeah. And they're every bit as good as your suddenly-needy stomach is telling you.

Go make yourself a batch. Adapted from Mel's Kitchen Cafe. Cheesecake in a Jar Recipe. I’m fairly certain that I’ve discussed my lack of love for the great outdoors, so it’s safe to say you’ll never hear me writing about long hikes in the woods or camping anywhere other than on a deck chair at a five star resort (Hey, I can dream, right?). Not to say that I am not fond of the fresh air and scenery, I just like to keep a screen between me and the bugs.

Needless to say, I don’t last long at picnics in the park or anywhere outdoors for that matter. Usually an annoying fly or buzzing bee will send me into a fit within 20 minutes and I’ll sit there contemplating my escape route or the idea of eating in my air conditioned vehicle. Problem is, I am a big pan of picnic food. Then, a couple of friends came up with the idea of a virtual picnic. The Nature Conservancy has a website that is devoted to Picnic for the Planet.

Treat of High Summer: Blackberry and Red Wine Jam.

The hottest temperatures of the summer have finally hit Seattle. High 80's without a cloud in the sky greeted us North-westerners over the weekend. It was hot. To many across the nation, this may seem cool, but we here are not used to these highs. Many scramble through the house trying to find last years sunscreen and sun hats to prepare for the intense sunshine. Shade and water are treated like gold.

However, with this intense heat and sunshine, comes also the beginning of the blackberry season. I love blackberries. Now in my mid twenties I am reliving this memory. Inspired by a glass of good red wine, I got into production mode. Everyone always says that berries are good for you, but how? Making jam is great way to preserve these delicious berries and have access to them year round.
