There are three women we always go to whenever we need delicious meal ideas: Ina Garten, Giada De Laurentiis and Martha Stewart. Now that fall is nearly here, we’ve been dreaming of hearty comfort foods, warm soups and all things pumpkin and apple. We’ve already added Ina Garten and Giada De Laurentiis’ best fall recipes to our autumn recipe lineup, but Martha Stewart has some amazing recipe ideas that are perfect for fall too. And considering the fact that her dreamy farmhouse fields and gardens produce bushels of apples, pumpkins, and squash every year, and that she has a home in Maine (one of the ultimate fall destinations), it makes sense that her autumn recipes are always hits. Take a look at some of Martha Stewart’s best fall recipes below, and get ready for a season of dreamy autumnal sweets and comfort foods.

Apple Rose Tart

Fall desserts don’t have to be rustic. This lovely apple tart looks as pretty as a rose, and it’s the perfect way to use up all of the fruit you got while apple picking.

Roasted Pumpkin Soup

As soon as we start seeing winter squash and pumpkins popping up at the farmer’s market, we can’t resist but to bring one home. A perfect first pumpkin recipe of the year? This easy roasted pumpkin soup, which can be made with basically any sweet, hard-fleshed winter squash you find this fall.

Spiced Sweet-Potato Cake with Meringue Frosting

Sweet potato gives this moist cake a deliciously autumnal flavor, but the torched Italian meringue frosting on top is definitely the stand-out of the recipe.

Pumpkin-Chocolate Cheesecake

This recipe combines three of our favorite desserts: anything with pumpkin, chocolate, and cheesecake. The rich chocolate cookie crust is topped with a creamy pumpkin cheesecake filling, and a chocolate drizzle on top takes things to the next level.

Classic Beef Stew

We love a one-pot meal, especially on busy weeknights when the last thing we want to deal with before bed is a pile of dishes left in the sink. This rich, cozy beef stew is the ultimate fall one-pot meal, with a classic flavor the whole family will love.

Spiced Snacking Cake

I didn’t know snacking cake was a thing until Martha introduced me but you better believe I am 100% here for it. All of the spices in this cake make it perfect for fall.

Pressure-Cooker Chile Verde

This dish is the perfect bridge between bright summer flavors and hearty winter comfort foods. It puts your Instant Pot to good use and gives your boring old chili recipe a nice makeover at the same time.

Apple Crumble

Apple pies can be a lot of work, but an apple crumble is just as delicious, and there’s no crust required! Eat with a cup of coffee and a dollop of Greek yogurt for breakfast, or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top for dessert.

Kale and Apple Salad

Even the biggest kale skeptics will fall in love with this sweet and savory salad. The vinaigrette softens up the kale leaves a bit, the thin slices of apple add a sweet-tart crunch to each bite, and the combination of flavors and textures will keep you going back for more.
