October is one of the best months of the year. There’s a slight chill in the air—brisk but not blustery—and the trees quickly go from verdant green to scarlet red and golden yellow. It’s one of my favorite times to get outside and catch the remaining days of warm weather. On the produce front, I’m also anticipating a spectacular change of scenery: chunky squash, warming spices, and plenty of cozy cocktails. Our editors are embracing the spirit of soup and stew season just like I am, and also looking forward to saucy, hearty, and herby baked eggs, comforting sheet-pan chicken dinners, and lots of seasonal baked goods. Plus, we’re unabashedly sharing our love for pumpkin-spiced everything, whether it’s brown butter bread or streusel-topped muffins. Below, you’ll find 12 recipes our editors can’t wait to make this month.
