For everyone else–here’s what we’re cookin’ up today. Oh yeah, it’s really good. It’s a variation of this regular caramel corn, but with all of the warm cinnamon-y goodness of fall. (Hmm…warm cinnamon-y goodness appears to be our theme this week). When it bakes, the pecans get toasted and the creamy white chocolate just makes it food-gasmic.

4.12 6 Published Sep 17, 2021, Updated Nov 05, 2024 Before the air fryer became popular I was all about baked sweet potato fries.

The one con is that my air fryer isn’t huge so I have to cook the fries in multiple batches....

I’ve been playing with this recipe for months now to get it just right. Basically, my original healthy chicken pot pie (with a biscuit topping) is so damn good that I had to keep working to get a slow cooker version that could stand up to it.
