My Friend Amy had a terrific idea -- a Fall Festival Recipe Exchange! Like Amy, fall is my favorite time of the year. I just love back-to-school shopping, cooler weather, football season, and especially all of the yummy fall foods. As I went though my cookbooks, I discovered that I have so many great fall recipes that it was difficult to pick just a few. Here are some of my favorites:Cranberry Nut Bread

grated rind and juice of one orange

1 egg
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1 cup raw whole cranberries
1 cup chopped walnuts
Mix melted butter, orange rind, and orange juice together to make 3/4 cup liquid. Add boiling water if necessary to get 3/4 cup. Cool. Add beaten egg to cooled liquid.
In a separate bowl, mix together remaining ingredients and add liquid last. Put in a greased loaf pan and bake for one hour at 325 degrees.
4 c. powdered sugar

You gave a whole dinner. I love it!
I must check back at these posts about fall recipes this evening when I have more time and I can cut and paste. I'm imagining what a fantastic Thanksgiving I could have this year!
I'm getting hungry just thinking about this meal!
Mmmm...yummy! I have a recipe for Orange/Cranberry Bread that is similar to yours. I make it every year for Thanksgiving and just love it!!
What a great idea this is!
*drool* Cranberry Nut Bread? Pumpkin Dip? Chicken and Pumpkin Pie Crunch?
OMG I am so hungry. And will definitely make the bread. And the dip. And the chicken. And probably the Pumpkin Pie Crunch too! Yay for fall!
Here is a recipe that I make every year in the fall:
Halloween Popcorn Mix
1 package Almond Bark (1 lb)
12 C popped popcorn (about 1/2 C kernals)
1 C candy corn
1 C dry roasted, salted peanuts
1/2 C Reeces Pieces
Pop popcorn and place in a VERY large bowl. Place the candy corn, peanuts and Reeces Pieces on top.
Melt the almond bark according to the package directions and pour over all the ingredients in the bowl. Stir really well and then put the mixture on wax paper or parchment paper and let it dry out. Break it up when its ready and ENJOY!!!
That pumpkin dip sound heavenly! Well, all the recipes do!
Get that cranberry bread and pumpkin crunch cake ready ... I'll bring the coffee (it will take me about 5 hours to drive there, I think!)
Everyone's recipes sound so delicious. I need to start cooking.
Oh my gosh, can I come eat at your house? That pumpkin dip sounds wonderful - I think it would be a huge hit at bunco.
I'll take the pumpkin pie crunch - definitely sounds great and looks easy!
Wow! I am SO making that cranberry chicken recipe for dinner tomorrow! Everything sounds wonderful -- thanks~!
Okay all of these look amazing! Thanks for sharing. :) Can't wait to try them.
The Cranberry sauce chicken sounds insanely easy and delish. I think I might have to try that one!
