No Tricks... With All The Treats
If You Have a Seasonal Sweet Tooth... This One Is For You!
Halloween Sugar Cookies
Gather around the kitchen and put on your creative hats, it's baking time! We wanted to start with something fun and easy that could be an exciting moment for the whole family or even a fun treat to the next holiday party! Sugar cookies are one of the most common because of their low amount of ingredients, and high amount of quantity. With a few personal touches in the icing, it can be a fun activity for the entire family to take part in after a few rounds on the tennis course. Pick a color for your ghostly ghouls and let's get to baking!

1 cup butter
1 cup white sugar

Sugar Cookie Icing
Food coloring in spooky Halloween colors

3 tsp milk
2 tsp corn syrup

Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Tarte Tatin
We want to make sure that everyone feels included in our fall favorites especially those with diet restrictions! Let's kill two birds with one stone and get out the two most popular factors of intolerance, gluten, and dairy. The Gluten and Dairy Free Tarte Tatin is a nod to the Irish Apple Tarte Tatin that we enjoy every year at home, and wanted to share this heartfelt tradition here with you all! This spread does not require many ingrediets but does leave a lasting memory on those who get the chance to enjoy it.

Pear Crumble
Last but not least, we had to include some sort of crumble to make this season complete. Rather than a robust hardy pie for winter, we like to lean into the holidays with a warm pear crumble as the favorite side dessert dish accompanied with a dollop of your favorite ice cream. Rather you are bringing the dessert to the next gathering or finishing a quick tennis match with your friends during the holidays, there is never a wrong time for a piece of crumble.

6–7 honey crisp Pears- peeled, cored, and sliced
½ cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla
