New Fall recipes are calling us into the Kitchen

Every Fall, we get an amazing array of new Cookbooks into the shops, and this year is no different. As we get closer and closer to the Winter holidays, more and more books will arrive to inspire your kitchen adventures.

This week, we are excited to share 3 new cookbooks that have just hit the shelves from some of our favourite culinary Canadians: Mary Berg, Lynn Crawford & Lora Kirk, and Bettina Schormann & Erin Schiestel. From cozy home cooking favourites, to seasonal specialties, to pastry from the experts, this selection will call you into the kitchen, and your loved ones to the table.

If this past weekend got you in the mood for pumpkin, we think you will love our Pumpkin Muffins with Streusel topping. At breakfast or mid-morning coffee, after-school, or as an evening treat, they are just right for right now. See the recipe below.

And we hear you: you're shopping early for the holidays. Check out our Big Brand Sale & Summer Clearance for things we love, at amazing prices. Cooking classes are always a welcome gift. Take a peek at our live online classes for a fun filled evening of great food.

Welcome back, Fall Cooking!
