I love making galettes at home; they're free-form, rustic and need no special equipment. Here I celebrate beautiful pumpkin, which is just so good right now. Roasted until golden and sweet, it sits on a layer of goat's cheese and leeks, and is married with sage and pine nuts for a comforting winter meal. I'm using goat's curd here, but any soft, fresh goat's cheese works perfectly. Serve with some salad leaves dressed simply with olive oil and lemon juice.

This pumpkin tart has a lot of components to it, but they all come together in a perfectly spiced, warm and comforting tart. This recipe is a love letter to seasonality because pumpkin is its prime during the fall months (duh!) and the rich and spicy base of this tart will warm you right up. Add the pumpkin seeds to a gremolata for less waste, and the whole tart is a fall/winter dream.

This cinnamon apple galette is the perfect fall dessert to whip up during apple season. Think spiced almond frangipane with cinnamon and nutmeg, melt-in-your-mouth honeycrisp apples, wrapped up in a buttery flaky crust, served with cold vanilla bean ice cream. Like could dessert get any better?!
