When the weather turns crisp and cool, I crave a house that smells like autumnal, warm spices. This sesame oat apple crisp fits the bill perfectly. The topping is studded with sesame seeds and rolled oats, giving this crisp a delicious nutty aroma and perfectly chewy texture. It\'s filled with the season’s best apples and tossed with Swerve (my go-to alternative sweeteners when I want to add flavor without the carbs and calories), warm spices, and lemon juice, creating a marriage of salty and sweet, nutty and delicious. https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/sesame-oat-apple-crisp

In the Guy family household, sweet potato pie is like the halftime show—anticipated sometimes even more than the game day turkey. This year, I’m switching things up a bit with this Whiskey Sweet Potato Pie. What\'s different? The custard is enriched with coconut cream, extra ginger and cinnamon, a generous pour of smokey whiskey, and, of course, lots of slow-roasted sweet potatoes. Let\'s not forget the amazingly flaky spelt flour crust and the marshmallow-like whipped meringue that gets carefully swooped on top right before serving. I balance out all this delicious decadence by using Swerve to sweeten the filling and meringue; it\'s my go-to alternative sweetener when I want to put a healthier spin on a recipe without having to compromise on flavor. It all comes together to create a multi-layered masterpiece! Once it’s out sparkling on the table, you may just start calling it The Pie, the one that steals the show. https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/whiskey-sweet-potato-pie
