Cinnamon Baked Doughnuts

Into a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined.

Step 3

Spoon the batter into the baking pans, filling each one a little more than three-quarters full. Bake for 17 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then tap the doughnuts out onto a sheet pan.

Step 4

For the topping, melt the 8 tablespoons of butter in an 8-inch saute pan. Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Dip each doughnut first in the butter and then in the cinnamon sugar, either on one side or both sides.

Stone Fruit Caprese

By Ali Slagle

A standout caprese starts with great fruit. You need ripe tomatoes to weep juices, which then mingle with grassy olive oil and milky cheese to make your dressing. Basil adds freshness, black pepper and flakes of sea salt add crunch, and that’s it, a perfect combination. But if the stone fruit options are looking better than the tomatoes at the market, you can use them instead. They’re similar in flavor to tomatoes, but need cajoling to relinquish their juices. By letting sliced fruit macerate with salt, sugar and lemon juice, their fruitiness becomes more electric and their juices pool on the plate. Start with fruit you can smell and pair it with equally quality ingredients. Caprese is more about shopping than cooking.

Maple Sweet Potatoes With Crispy Almonds and Sage

By Noor Murad

Drizzled with maple syrup and roasted until caramelized, these sweet potatoes make an easy autumnal side dish to serve as part of a larger festive spread, and can be served both warm or at room temperature. If getting ahead, make the crunchy, garlicky almond-and-sage topping well in advance to be spooned on top when needed. Be sure not to walk away when frying the garlic, as it can quickly turn bitter if over-fried, so stir often and adjust the heat as necessary.

Mudslide Cookies

By null

Rye flour is the secret to these gooey, super-chocolatey cookies. Because rye is a soft grain that doesn't develop gluten when mixed, these cookies have an unbelievably tender crumb, plus the benefit of a sweet, grassy flavor, also from the rye. Toasted pecans and chocolate chips provide a bit of texture. —Matthew James Duffy in his book, "Bread Etc.: Recipes + Techniques for Baking with Sourdough, Yeasted Dough, Pizza Dough + More"

Chewy Chai Gingerbread

By Genevieve Ko

Soft and chewy, these gingerbread cookies come together quickly and easily. Using oil instead of butter keeps the rounds moist and lets the warmth of the spices shine. A chai blend, which often highlights ginger and cardamom and includes the surprising heat of black pepper, gives them even more verve. If you don’t have one on hand, you can simply mix your own (see Tip). That spiced coziness is echoed in the glaze, but the cookies are just as satisfying unadorned.
