Rich and Gooey Chocolate Banana Pudding
Creamy, chocolatey banana pudding made from scratch—perfect for potlucks, summer parties, or a no-bake treat at home.
Fresh Mango Pudding
Made with ripe, fragrant mangoes and a touch of milk, this popular Chinese dessert is tropical, light and refreshing. Like a fruity panna cotta, this mango pudding makes use of gelatin — not egg — to create its custardy consistency and signature wiggle. Blended together and then set in ramekins or a large baking dish, this make-ahead dessert is a low-lift stunner, spangled with fresh mango chunks and bathed in silky evaporated milk. Coconut milk can be substituted for the evaporated milk, adding a floral, nutty flavor in place of the subtle, slightly caramel notes of cow’s milk.
Tepache (Fizzy Fermented Pineapple Drink)
Refreshing, earthy and lightly sweetened, tepache is a popular fermented drink from Mexico. Traditionally, the main ingredients are piloncillo (a Mexican variety of raw cane sugar), pineapple peels (and sometimes the core) and water. For best results, use a very ripe pineapple. You can also add spices like cinnamon, cloves or fresh ginger. Fermentation time depends on the environment: In warm weather (75 to 85 degrees), it could be ready in 2 to 3 days; in cooler weather, it can take 5 to 7 days. Taste the tepache regularly; when ready, it will be frothy on the surface and slightly fizzy on the tongue, and will taste and smell pleasantly fermented. (Be mindful that if the tepache ferments for too long, it will turn into vinegar.) You can serve tepache on ice as is, or dilute and sweeten it to taste by adding water and sugar.

Banana–Nut Muffins
These moist, tender banana-nut muffins get warmth from cinnamon and nutmeg, and vanilla extract brings a delicate floral note that complements the sweetness of the brown sugar and ripe bananas.

Quick Indian Mango Pickle
With its zesty combination of spices and crunchy texture, this Indian quick mango pickle is a great addition to almost any meal.
Chantilly Lili
This dessert, named for Meghan’s daughter, Princess Lilibet, is based on a banana pudding recipe of Meghan’s grandmother. In the Southern classic, vanilla pudding is layered with cookies and sliced banana; Meghan’s version adds the sweet-tart sting of strawberries macerated with lemon. She happens to have a passion fruit vine in her garden, and its yellow seeds make a nice, juicy garnish. This layered pudding can be made in individual glasses for a party, or a big bowl for a family night in.
Creamy Cauliflower-Cashew Soup
Creamy and comforting, this cauliflower soup happens to be vegan, and takes its silky texture from being simmered and thickened with roasted cashews. The nuttiness of the cauliflower and the cashews is balanced by the addition of a tart apple. The preferred thickness of creamed soups varies, so if the soup feels too thick, just adjust it to your ideal level of creaminess, adding more stock or water — and an additional sprinkle of salt — as needed.
Brie and Mango Chutney Grilled Cheese
Grilled cheeses come in many flavors and shapes depending on the cheese, bread and condiments used. This version opts for relatively mellow, creamy Brie topped with tangy mango chutney and earthy spinach. Mayonnaise is slathered on the side of the bread slices that cook on a preheated pan for a guaranteed crunchy crust, and the two halves of the sandwich initially cook separately to ensure the Brie melts nicely. Feel free to adjust the amount of mayo, cheese and chutney depending on the size of your bread slices (and your taste). To make a simple, comforting appetizer or shareable snack instead of a sandwich, remove the grilled cheese halves from the pan after Step 3, cut into rectangles or triangles and serve.
Pollo a la Piña (Pineapple Chicken)
Pineapples are grown all along the Pacific Mexican coast and are used in raw salsas as a condiment and in cooked salsas to give a sweet and tart counterpoint to spicy chiles and roasted meats and veggies. Pollo a la piña is a bright and savory dish with a smoky spicy kick from canned chipotle chiles in adobo and tropical sweetness from chopped pineapple and orange juice. This tender and juicy chicken makes a great taco filling. Or pile it on a bun with pickled jalapeños and shredded cabbage for a sweet, spicy and smoky sandwich reminiscent of the best BBQ but without firing up the grill.
Cinnamon Date Smoothie
When the craving for a cinnamon bun strikes but you don’t want to go through all the proofing, forming and baking, this smoothie almost hits all those notes in a snap: buttermilk steps in for the tang of cream cheese icing, dates offer their caramelly sweetness, and nutty flax brings that freshly baked aura. Don’t skimp on the salt, which helps all the flavors pop.
Easy Apple Tart
For an easy, satisfying fruit dessert, phyllo dough is just the thing. You don’t have to make the pastry for a very flaky result. Here, it’s topped with spiced sliced apples and painted with extra-virgin olive oil instead of the usual melted butter. Still, use butter if you prefer, and feel free to experiment with cigar shapes or phyllo turnovers.
Pineapple Chow Chow
This piquant pickled relish is widely believed to be descendent from English piccalilli. In Trinidad and Tobago, chow chow is a staple during the holiday season, and is often served with baked ham and hops bread on Christmas morning. Typically Trinidadian chow chow is made by soaking a bevy of fruits and vegetables like Chinese long beans and green papaya overnight in a salty-sweet brine. This quicker stovetop adaptation nixes the need for a night-long soak, and incorporates canned pineapple to add both sweetness and heft to its bright and assertive mustard base.
Chocolate Banana Muffins
Overripe bananas find another happy home nestled in these super-moist, chocolatey muffins. These muffins teeter between breakfast and dessert thanks to the addition of semisweet chocolate chips. For an extra special treat, warm halved muffins in a skillet with a pat of butter and sprinkle with a bit of kosher salt. A swipe of cream cheese wouldn’t hurt either. Freeze overripe bananas peeled in order to make baking with them even easier. Let them thaw first and then stir any liquid back in before measuring the mash.
Apple Hand Pies
These perfectly portable hand pies are made with standard pie dough ingredients, but the method is slightly different. In order to create puffed, layered, super-flaky pastry, the dough is rolled out and folded multiple times in order to create thin layers of butter that melt and create steam in the oven. This step is somewhat unnecessary when it comes to baking pies in pie plates because the filling would prevent major puffing anyway. A hand pie is baked free form, so it has all the room in the world to puff up. These are lovely and just sweet enough, but if you’d like to dress them up a bit, combine 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 to 2 tablespoons of whole milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and drizzle before serving.
Apple Cinnamon Muffins
Perfectly petite, these apple cinnamon muffins are sweet, spiced and ideal for breakfast or an on-the-go snack. Use whichever apple you like best — Granny Smith for tartness or Fuji if you like your apples on the sweeter side. Brushing with melted butter and cinnamon sugar gives them a soft doughnut-like vibe, but a crunchy, crumby topping would be nice too! To switch it up, combine 3/4 cup flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt with 4 tablespoons of melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the batter before baking.

Apple Pie Muffins
Studded with sweet-tart apples and topped with a cinnamon-spiked crumble, these tender muffins deliver big apple flavor.
Pavo al Pastor (Sweet and Smoky Shredded Turkey)
The iconic tacos al pastor (shepherd’s style tacos) — made and eaten across Mexico and in the US — are normally made with adobo-marinated pork steaks, flame-kissed on a vertical spit called a trompo and served with grilled pineapple and onion on corn tortillas. In this recipe, which takes advantage of leftover turkey, canned chipotles in adobo evoke the flavor of al pastor’s spicy adobo sauce, while the chipotles’ smokiness mimics the spit-roasted pork. Extra al pastor sauce can be used like a barbecue sauce to flavor cooked shredded meats like chicken or pork, or as a marinade for meat before cooking. For plant-based tacos, toss the sauce with roasted vegetables or brush over raw cauliflower, winter or summer squash, eggplant or mushrooms and roast or grill until charred and tender.
Instant Pot Applesauce
From-scratch applesauce rivals the flavor and texture of store-bought, and with the help of an Instant Pot, it can be made in a jiffy, without monitoring or stirring. Firm, tart-sweet apples are suggested, but feel free to use any variety, or a mix of varieties, for a customized batch. (Firm varieties will produce a chunkier sauce and can be puréed further; soft varieties can also be used, but they’ll break down faster.) After the fruit is peeled, use an apple slicer, if you have one, to streamline the slicing and coring; there’s no need to slice the apples further, as they’ll break down under the pressure of the Instant Pot. For a smoother sauce, mash the apples or whiz them in a food processor after cooking. Ground cinnamon is a classic addition, but an equal amount of pumpkin spice or a pinch of ground cardamom will also enhance the fall fruit.
Butterscotch Banana Cream Pie
This is grown-up banana pudding in pie form. One bite, and you may never want banana pudding any other way. Salted butterscotch pudding pairs with ripe, sweet bananas for a balanced (and slightly boozy, if using rum) filling. A crunchy pistachio and vanilla wafer crust nestles the thick custard, while a not-too-sweet crème fraîche topping lightens the whole thing. Be sure to slice and serve this pie directly from the refrigerator — if it doesn’t stay cold, it may be messy. (Watch me make my Thanksgiving pies on YouTube.)
Pomegranate Cardamom Apple Pie
Like most good things, terrific apple pie takes a little bit of time, but it’s worth the anticipation. In this variation, sweet and tart apples are cooked first in a fragrant, jewel-toned pomegranate reduction so they all bake more evenly. Placing the pie on the bottom rack ensures that the bottom crust cooks through before the top crust gets too dark. You may be tempted to cut into it warm, but the pie needs to cool for at least four hours to be sliceable. (Watch me make my Thanksgiving pies on YouTube.)
Crunchy Brussels Sprouts and Apple Slaw
Finely shaved brussels sprouts provide a robust structure for this crave-worthy salad, their mildly bitter leaves emboldened by a sweet and tart maple-and-mustard dressing. Every element of this salad works hard to make this slaw memorable: Apple provides sweet, fruity bursts; the shallot injects aromatic appeal; the almonds bring much-needed crunch; the mint lends bright herbaceousness; and salty pecorino imparts essential sharpness. Serve with bread, or enjoy as a leafy side accompanying a main. An excellent choice for entertaining, this salad can hang around for a while.
Red Cabbage Salad With Orange Vinaigrette
This fall salad radiates vibrancy and texture: crunchy red cabbage and almonds, crisp-sweet apple, tangy dried cranberries and a vinaigrette that’s zesty with orange and red pepper. It would pair equally well with super rich pork chops and sausage or lean roast turkey. Add chickpeas or salty cheese to turn it into a bright main dish.
