To know fall and the chilly winter months is to love soup season. So bring on soup season with these 7 best soup recipes.
Here are 7 of the best soup recipes for soup season
1.) Medicine Ball Chicken Noodle Soup – classic chicken noodle gets an extra kick with immune boosting ingredients like bone broth and tumeric for when you or your loved ones are feeling under the weather or just need an extra spoonful of comfort. I call this my Medicine Ball Chicken Noodle Soup for a reason. Get the recipe here and be sure to save this one!
2.) Crock pot butternut squash soup –when you think of fall soups it’s impossible for butternut squash not to come to mind. This one is super easy, all you need is a crock pot, some diced butternut squash and an immersion blender. I like to top mine with some crunchy pumpkin seeds. Sharing the recipe here.
4.) Zucchini corn chowder – This is a delicious creamy soup that I like to make towards the end of summer right when fall is gearing up and you’ve got a full bounty of zucchini. But truly you can make anytime! Click here for the recipe.
6.) Easy Vegetable Soup –if you’ve got a fridge full of veggies roast them all up on a pan with a little salt and some herbs and then blend together for this easy vegetable soup. This one is packed with plant power and dairy free too!
7.) Pumpkin bread bowls – ok so this one isn’t exactly a soup recipe but is there anything better than eating your soup out of a crusty bread bowl? I don’t think so. And if they’re pumpkin shaped bread bowls then that’s just even cuter! Click here to see how to make them.
Enjoy!!! Cheers to Soup Season!

These are the best pumpkin magic bars. Similar to the classic seven layer bars, these are layered with pumpkin and a buttery, gingersnap crust which make them the perfect fall dessert.
My great aunt used to make the best magic bars. You may also know them as Seven Layer Bars, or Hello Dolly bars. At every family function, I knew that I could look forward to her special cookie bars. If you’re not familiar with Magic Bars they are a classic throwback recipe with a graham cracker crust, sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, nuts,and shredded coconut.
This month, our theme for the Cozy Creative Collaborative was pumpkin since it’s October! So I decided to make a pumpkin rendition of these magic bars.

Crisp apples, with creamy brie, sweet caramelized onions, and hot honey are all baked to perfection on a crisp flatbread and topped with arugula that will have your mouth bursting with deliciousness.
It’s apple season! And the ladies of the Cozy Creative Collaborative and I have gotten together this month to bring you some warm and comforting apple recipes. I love apples paired with brie cheese, I think it’s a great fall combo. So I decided to make these apple and brie flatbreads with hot honey. These are a quick appetizer or my favorite way to enjoy an upscale pizza in the fall. Bake them in the oven or enjoy on the grill!
Now here is my recipe for my apple and brie flatbread with hot honey.
Apple and brie flatbread with hot honey
We do family pizza night in our house every Friday. We love to make our own personal pizzas with Naan flatbread. I always top mine with arugula and usually a drizzle of balsamic glaze because it’s sooooo good! For fall I like to switch it up and do apple and brie on my flatbread. I still top with my arugula but I recently discovered this hot honey and it’s a game changer! I think you will love my recipe too!
Ingredients:
1 onion, peeled and sliced thin
butter
1 wheel of brie, cut into chunks
2 apples, sliced thin (I used granny smith and honeycrisp)
2.) Start by making the onions first as this takes a bit of time. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt some butter and add the onions. Turn the heat down to low and allow to saute until they are cooked and slightly golden brown.
3.) Line a baking sheet with some parchment paper and lay out the flatbreads.
4.) Drizzle the flatbreads with some olive oil and then add the onions on top, spreading out evenly.
5.) Top with the sliced apples and chunks of brie.
6.) Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until the brie is melted and the flatbreads are golden brown.
7.) Top with some fresh arugula and drizzle with hot honey.
Enjoy!!!

If you love apple pie or have leftover pie crust, you are going to want to make these easy pie crust leaf cookies with apple pie dip!
When I think of fall, I think of going apple picking, helping my mom make an apple pie and then going outside to play in a big pile of leaves while the pie bakes in the oven. This recipe makes me so nostalgic for a simple and cozy fall. I was so honored when the ladies from the Handcrafted Society asked me to join them for this month’s blog hop, all about leaves. I knew exactly what I wanted to do! I think you all will love this recipe as much as I do!
Now scroll on down for my easy pie crust leaf cookies with apple pie dip recipe.
Easy pie crust leaf cookies with apple pie dip
Refrigerated pie crust is cut out into leaf shapes and basted with cinnamon and sugar to make a simple yet sweet cookie. Apples, more cinnamon and sugar are cooked until tender in the crock pot to not only make your house smell amazing, but it makes a great dip for your cookies! You can use any dip you like, I also like to do a pumpkin dip (recipe coming soon!) But this apple pie dip is my favorite!

2.) Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours. 3.) While the apples are cooking, start to prepare the pie crust cookies. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 4.) On a lightly floured surface or on parchment paper, roll out the dough. 5.) Using some cookie cutters or a butter knife, cut out your desired leaf shapes and place on the parchment paper lined baking sheet.
6.) Prepare an egg wash by whisking together 1 egg and 1 Tbsp of water or milk. Sprinkle in some cinnamon and sugar.
7.) Using a basting or pastry brush, lightly brush the egg wash mixture onto each cut out cookie.
8.) Place in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 12-15 minutes.
9.) Scoop the baked apple dip into a bowl and serve with the pie crust cookies. Enjoy!!!
Store cookies in a ziploc bag and the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
