Our first fall day may be a little warmer than usual this year, but thinking about new seasonal dishes — to warm us up as the weather cools — is no less exciting. From homemade lattes to warming soups, slow cooker stews and the best apple pie you've ever had (not kidding), it's hard to bemoan the dipping temperatures with the feast fall recipes available.

The chilly temps call for a clever hot drink, and this chai latte, inspired by one we tasted at Vancouver’s Granville Island Public Market, is equally warming. Don’t be put off by the butter: It’s the secret ingredient that makes this drink unforgettable. Get the recipe.
