This is a gorgeous, seasonal hors d'oeuvre that would be lovely on a table or as a passed appetizer. The tang of the feta compliments the sweetness of the salad and the bitterness of the endive leaf, and the jewel tones of the beet and persimmon make for a beautiful bite.

This large galette takes root vegetables to the next level. The creamy leek filling and pastry crust make it substantial enough to accompany a few cocktails, and the presentation is sure to impress.

This is our go-to gluten-free pie crust; it crisps up beautifully and tastes fantastic. We also use this recipe for hand pies and tarts, and we even roll leftovers into little snake shapes, toss them in cinnamon sugar and bake them into little golden cookies. Before you begin, make sure all of your ingredients are refrigerated (or, in the case of the cream cheese and butter, frozen) to ensure that the crust holds its shape and turns flaky once baked.

We fried dozens of latkes—all the highest-rated versions on our site—to come up with our ultimate recipe with fluffy, pillowy-soft centers and crisp, golden brown edges.

You might say I hoard Parmesan rinds. I save them all year long, freezing them in a resealable bag. As soon as that first cold front sweeps in, I transform those long-collected ends into a rich and versatile Parmesan Broth.

These naturally gluten-free cookies are a cross between two favorite holiday indulgences: truffles and macaroons.

You'll never believe these buttery, crisp cookies with a soft chocolate filling are nut-and gluten-free!

These pretty (gluten-free!) butter cookies come in three flavors: lime, lemon, and grapefruit. Or just pick one variety and triple the amount of zest and juice. You'll find psyllium-husk powder, flax seed, chia seed, and rice-based gluten-free flour at most natural foods stores.

This warming chowder is a fantastic way to use leftover turkey (and works great with rotisserie chicken, too.) Smoky bacon, earthy cumin, and mild green chiles add tons of flavor to this hearty soup.

These zesty chicken fingers get their flavor from a tangy buttermilk marinade and a breading spiked with smoked paprika.

Cooking your stuffing in an ovenproof skillet means it can go from stove to oven without missing a beat. Prepping your aromatic vegetables in the food processor cuts down on chopping time, too.

Prep your green beans quickly; stack a handful of them together on a cutting board and trim the stem ends off the whole stack at once.

Spatchcocking your turkey significantly cuts the roasting time, and it's easy to do—just take out the backbone and flatten the bird. If you're nervous about doing it yourself, just ask a butcher at the meat counter to handle it for you.

This autumnal dessert is prepped in advance and then completed at the table—a delicious time saver!

Beloved for a reason, this bird is brined and then air-dried in the refrigerator for the crispiest, most flavorsome turkey skin ever.
