A moist and tender pumpkin bread that&#x27;s even better than the one from Starbucks. 

Pumpkin Bread Recipe

Cooking spray

sugar

pumpkin purée (about 2 cups)

vegetable or canola oil

eggs

pumpkin pie spice

baking powder

baking soda

salt

all-purpose flour

roasted, salted pumpkin seeds (aka pepitas)

Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 350°F. Coat a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray; set aside.

Place the sugar, pumpkin purée, oil, and eggs in a large bowl and whisk until smooth and combined. Add the pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, and whisk to combine. Add the flour and fold it in with a rubber spatula until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle with the pumpkin seeds, then gently press them into the batter to ensure they stick. 

Bake until a toothpick comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs attached, 65 to 75 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely. 

Pumpkin Pie Pancakes

brown sugar

cinnamon

ginger

nutmeg

buttermilk

pumpkin purée (I prefer Libby)

vanilla extract

Canola oil (or another other neutral oil), for cooking

Place the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, brown sugar, and spices in a medium bowl and whisk to combine.

Place the buttermilk, pumpkin purée, egg yolks, and vanilla in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into the flour mixture and stir until almost combined, but with a few clumps of flour still remaining. Stir the reserved egg whites into the mixture until just combined. Set the batter aside to rest for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the skillet.

Heat about a tablespoon of oil in a large cast iron skillet or griddle on medium-high heat until shimmering. Add 1/4 cup portions of batter to the pan, pressing it out with the bottom of the measuring cup to help it spread out a bit. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the bottoms are golden brown and a bit crispy, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the pancakes and continue cooking until set, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes more. (I like to do a small test pancake to adjust the temperature before cooking the remaining batter.) Re-heat the griddle before cooking additional batches of pancakes.

Serve the pumpkin pie pancakes with a heavy dusting of powdered sugar, a drizzle of maple syrup, a slap of butter, and a pile of whipped cream.

A recipe for pumpkin spice steel-cut oatmeal made in the slow cooker. 

Slow Cooker Creamy Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal

Cooking spray, olive oil, or coconut oil

unsalted butter, divided

steel-cut oats

pumpkin purée

cloves

water

milk

maple syrup

cinnamon stick

For serving: heavy cream, ground cinnamon, and additional maple syrup (optional)

Coat the bottom and sides of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray, olive oil, or coconut oil.

Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Add the oats and stir frequently until lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Push the oats up to the side of the pan and melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the center of the pan. Add the pumpkin purée to the center of the pan and cook without stirring for 1 minute. Add the ginger, nutmeg, and cloves into the purée and cook, stirring occasionally, until the purée darkens slightly and the raw smell disappears, 3 to 4 minutes more.

Transfer the mixture to the prepared slow cooker. Add the water, milk, maple syrup, cinnamon stick, vanilla, and salt and stir well to combine.

Cover the slow cooker and cook on the LOW setting for 8 hours. When finished, much of the pumpkin purée will have separated from the oats — don&#x27;t panic! Stir well with a wooden spoon to recombine everything, and remove the cinnamon stick before serving. Spoon the oatmeal into bowls and finish with a splash of heavy cream, a dusting of ground cinnamon, and a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired.

Thick cubes of brioche are infused with rich custard packed with warm spices and a double dose of pumpkin, then topped with a brown sugar-pecan streusel.

Pumpkin French Toast Casserole

Unsalted butter

brioche (about 1 pound), cut into 1-inch pieces

half-and-half

sugar (optional)

Maple syrup,

pecans

(1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted

Make the casserole: Generously coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter. Place the bread cubes evenly in the dish and set aside.

Place the eggs in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Whisk in the half-and-half, pumpkin, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and salt. Evenly pour the custard over the bread. Use a spoon to push the bread down and stir so all the cubes are soaked through. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 350°F. Remove the baking dish from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature while the oven is heating. Meanwhile, make the crumb topping.

Make the crumb topping: Stir the flour, sugar, pecans, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a medium bowl. Drizzle with the butter and stir until big, slightly floury crumbs form.

Sprinkle the crumb topping over the casserole. Bake uncovered until the casserole is set, puffed, and the top is golden-brown, 40 to 45 minutes.

Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it cool for at least 5 minutes. Right before serving, dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve warm with maple syrup if desired.

This hearty vegan broccoli and kale salad is topped with golden croutons and a velvety vegan Caesar dressing made with roasted garlic and cashews.

Broccoli and Kale Caesar Salad

stale bread (about 1/2 medium baguette)

olive oil, divided

Kosher salt

broccoli

garlic, unpeeled

kale

cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

parsley

sunflower seeds

low-sodium vegetable broth

olive oil

capers

lemon juice

black pepper

Make the croutons and roast the broccoli: Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 400°F.

Cut the bread into 1/2-inch pieces. Place on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil, and season with salt. Spread into an even layer. Bake, stirring halfway through, until evenly browned on all sides, about 15 minutes total. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside to cool.

Place the broccoli florets and unpeeled garlic cloves on the same baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil, toss to combine, and spread into an even layer. Roast until the broccoli is just starting to turn golden-brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and set aside.

Make the dressing: Squeeze out the garlic from their skins into a high-powered blender. Drain the water from the cashews and add to the blender. Add the broth or water, oil, capers, and lemon juice. Blend on high speed until very smooth (if it is too thick, blend in a few more splashes of water). Taste and season well with salt and pepper; set aside.

Assemble the salad: Place the kale, remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, and a big pinch of salt in a large bowl. Massage with your hands to soften the leaves, then let sit for 5 minutes. Add the roasted broccoli, cannellini beans, croutons, and parsley and toss to combine. Add the dressing and toss to combine. Sprinkle with the sunflower seeds.

Stovetop Tuna Orzo Casserole with Broccoli

butter

onion,

thyme

orzo pasta

milk (not nonfat)

salt, divided,

broccoli crown (about 12 ounces)

Parmesan cheese

Melt the butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion, thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion has softened and is starting to brown, about 8 minutes.

Add the orzo and cook, stirring occasionally, until toasty smelling, about 1 minute. Add the milk, water, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon of salt, and season with pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the orzo is almost cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. (Add more water as needed if the orzo absorbs it all before tender.) Meanwhile, prep the broccoli.

Cut the broccoli into very small florets, about 1/2-inch pieces. When the orzo is almost ready, add the broccoli and cook, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes.

Remove from the heat and add the tuna and cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted, then taste and add more salt as needed. Serve immediately.

A quick Thai red curry filled with sweet potatoes, chickpeas, and baby spinach that&#x27;s made creamy with coconut milk.

sweet potatoes (about 1 pound total), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes

chickpeas,

(13- coconut milk

(5-ounce) bag baby spinach (about 5 packed cups)

Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the ginger and garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the curry paste and sauté for another minute. 

Add the sweet potatoes, chickpeas, coconut milk, water, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover, and cook until the sweet potatoes are tender and cooked through, about 15 minutes. 

Stir in the spinach and cook until just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lime juice. Serve over rice if desired.

A recipe for quick and easy tomato orzo studded with chickpeas, which is made in just one pot.

One-Pot Tomato Chickpeas and Orzo

yellow onion, diced

orzo pasta (about 2 1/2 cups)

(32 ounces) low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth

tomatoes

(15-ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed (about 3 cups total)

Parmesan cheese,

basil leaves

Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion and sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the orzo and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in the broth, tomatoes, and chickpeas and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce to a simmer, and cook, stirring frequently so that the orzo doesn’t stick, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the pasta is al dente, about 10 minutes or according to package instructions. (If the pasta isn’t completely cooked at this point, add another splash or two of broth or water to the pot and continue to simmer until it has.) Stir in the Parmesan cheese. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with the chopped basil and additional grated cheese, if desired.

Vegan Slow-Cooker Chickpea Tikka Masala

chickpeas

coconut oil

coarsely chopped peeled fresh ginger

brown mustard seeds

cumin seeds

turmeric

coriander

cardamom

coconut milk,

kosher salt,

baby spinach (5 packed cups)

basmati rice and lime wedges,

red pepper flakes

Make the chickpeas: If using dried chickpeas, place in a large bowl and pick through and discard any stones or shriveled chickpeas. Cover with 3 quarts cold water. Stir in 1 tablespoon of kosher salt and let sit at least 10 hours or overnight at room temperature.

Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender, about 5 minutes.

Add the mustard seeds, cumin, turmeric, coriander, and cardamom and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the water and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth (reserve the blender, no need to wash). Transfer to a 4-quart or larger slow cooker.

Add the coconut milk and 2 teaspoons salt. Add the canned chickpeas, or drain the soaked chickpeas and add to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.

Cover and cook on the LOW setting until the chickpeas are tender, 6 to 8 hours for canned or 8 to 10 hours for dried. Meanwhile, place the tomatoes in the blender and blend until smooth. Refrigerate until the chickpeas are ready.

Add the blended tomatoes and stir to combine. Cover and cook until the flavors meld, at least 30 minutes but up to 1 hour. Just before serving, make the tarka.

For the tarka: Heat the oil in a small frying pan over medium-high heat until just starting to smoke. Add the cumin seeds, red pepper flakes, and mustard seeds and fry, swirling the pan, until sizzling and very fragrant, about 20 seconds. Immediately scrape the tarka into the chickpeas.

Add the spinach and gently stir to combine and wilt. Taste and season with salt as needed. Serve warm over rice, with lime wedges on the side.

An easy recipe for a skillet shrimp and orzo dinner inspired by Spanish paella.

Weeknight Orzo Paella

orzo pasta (10 ounces)

chicken broth

smoked paprika

kosher salt, divided

black pepper, divided

peas

parsley leaves

Heat oil in a 9- or 10-inch cast iron or straight-sided skillet over medium until shimmering. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes total. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds more.

Add the orzo and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the broth, tomatoes and their juices,  paprika, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Stir to combine and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, and cook, undisturbed, until the orzo is almost al dente, the liquid has reduced by about half, and there is tight, rapid bubbling, 7 to 9 minutes. Meanwhile, pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season with remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. 

Scatter the shrimp and peas over the orzo, cover, and cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to rest, covered, for 5 minutes, allowing any residual liquid in the skillet to be absorbed. Top with the parsley and serve. 

Spicy Shrimp Skillet with Tomatoes and White Beans

cherry tomatoes (about 2 cups), halved

Aleppo pepper (or 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes)

dry white white

white beans, drained and rinsed

shrimp

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the tomatoes and sauté until they begin to blister and soften, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and Aleppo pepper and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute more.

Pour in the wine and simmer until the wine has reduced by half, about 1 minute. Stir in the beans, reduce the heat to medium-low, and season the mixture with salt as needed.

Add in the shrimp and gently toss to combine. Cover and cook until the shrimp are opaque and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle with the parsley and serve immediately. This recipe is best eaten immediately, as it does not keep well.

If you haven&#x27;t yet been introduced to this snack, please allow me to do the honors. Here is our step-by-step recipe for roasting chickpeas in the oven.

How To Make Crispy Roasted Chickpeas in the Oven

spices

Heat the oven to 400°F. Arrange a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 400°F.

Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Open the cans of chickpeas and pour the chickpeas into a strainer in the sink. Rinse thoroughly under running water.

Dry the chickpeas. Pat the chickpeas very dry with a clean dishtowel or paper towels. They should look matte and feel dry to the touch; if you have time, leave them to air-dry for a few minutes. Remove any chickpea skins that come off while drying, but otherwise don’t worry about them.

Toss the chickpeas with olive oil and salt. Spread the chickpeas out in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and sprinkle with the salt. Stir with your hands or a spatula to make sure the chickpeas are evenly coated.

Roast the chickpeas for 20 to 30 minutes. Roast, stirring the chickpeas or shaking the pan every 10 minutes. A few chickpeas may pop – that’s normal. The chickpeas are done when golden and slightly darkened, dry and crispy on the outside, and soft in the middle, 20 to 30 minutes total.

Toss the chickpeas with the spices. Sprinkle the spices if using over the chickpeas and stir to coat evenly. Serve while the chickpeas are still warm and crispy. They will gradually lose their crispiness as they cool, becoming addictively chewy.

Make everyone around the table excited about dinner with this recipe for pasta and meatballs inspired by spaghettios. 

One-Pot Meatballs & Pasta Os

onion

tomato paste

water chicken broth

apple cider vinegar

oregano

pasta

For serving: Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes

Divide the sausage into 32 (1/2-ounce) portions and roll each one into a tablespoon-sized meatball.

Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a 10-inch high-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meatballs and cook, turning occasionally, until browned all over, about 3 minutes per side. The meatballs might not be completely cooked at this point. Transfer to a plate.

Return the pan to medium-high heat and melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the onion, salt, and pepper, and cook, scraping the browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until the onion softens, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Pour in the tomatoes, 2 cups of the water or broth, vinegar, sugar, and oregano. Stir in the pasta and meatballs, along with any juices that have accumulated on the plate. Bring to a boil.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and the meatballs are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes, adding more water or broth as needed if you want a soupier consistency. Ladle into bowls and top with Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes, if desired.

Crisp Tuna-Cabbage Salad
