Fall is a time for fun, friends, and most importantly... food! We've compiled a list of our FAVORITE VEGAN Fall treats including vegan doughnuts, meatballs, and lasagna!
The Best Vegan Recipes for Fall
It may still be hot and humid, but fall is definitely making an entrance. The air feels different, it smells different, the trees are beginning to change color, and the leaves are beginning to fall. As much as I love summer, autumn is my favorite season. The crisp mornings and chilly nights, snugly sandwiched between warm afternoons, is pure bliss. The kaleidoscope of colors outside of my windows, sweaters, boots, and denim, pumpkins, apples, and rich and hearty food, ah yes, this is my season.
Starting this week I'll be spending less time outside and more time in the kitchen. I've allowed myself some summer freedom, and now it's time to get back to work. But before I whip out the pots and pans, I'm going to bring back a few of my favorite vegan fall recipes to get me inspired, and to tempt you.
All of these fall recipes are my favorites, and more importantly, they're my reader's favorites too.
Old Fashioned Fluffy Vegan Pancakes with Apple Spice Compote
Pancakes that are as light and fluffy as a pillow, topped with the most savory and sweet apple spice compote. These are what Saturday and Sunday mornings are made for.

Vegan Tortilla Soup
If you could eat Mexican food all day every day, then this is the soup for your colorful fall afternoons, or chilly evenings. It's spicy, but not too spicy, and so, so good!

Roasted Sweet Potato Chili
Autumn and chili, they go together like peanut butter and jelly and avocados and toast. This hearty chili with roasted sweet potatoes and fiery spices will wake up your taste buds. Perfect when eaten next to a roaring fire.

Vegan Mushroom Bourguignonne
It's not easy to say but it's SO easy to eat. This is absolutely delicious and so worth the little bit of time that it takes to make. Open a bottle of red and make this with your honey or your BFF on a Saturday evening. The meaty mushrooms and carrots absorb the red wine sauce, it's really one of my favorite recipes, and I bet it will be one of yours too.

Spicy Vegan Black Bean Meatballs
You don't need meat to make the ultimate comfort food. Black beans and a few extra ingredients make the best "meatballs" this side of Italy. Soaked in the most wonderful marinara sauce, these baby balls are excellent on their own or sitting on a cloud of spaghetti.

Vegan Mexican Lasagna
Fall means football, and game day means lasagna! Make a big pan of my spicy Mexican lasagna and serve it up with a side of guacamole. This is a total crowd pleaser!

Vegan Pumpkin Spice Cookies
Soft pillows of pumpkin and spice with a glaze. I dare you to eat just one.
P.S. These cookies go perfectly with Califia's Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew! Definitely not an ad, just can't help but be obsess with this product!

Thank you, Sophia!Oh, don't get me wrong, I LOVE summer! If I could live in a place that would switch from summer to fall over and over again, no winter or spring, I'd be so happy.

I am drooling on this post. Seems a bit early for Fall but never too early to dream about Fall food 🙂

We had to put the heating on earlier tonight. First time this year. As sad as I am that summer appears to be over I do like fall and you can't beat fall comfort food. I love your collection...Such tasty comfort food!
Linda Meyer says
Wow! I can't believe that you've had to turn on your heat! Summer is fighting back in Chicago, it's been in the 90s and ridiculously humid. I'm looking forward to the 70 something degree temps in the forecast. Thanks so much, Melanie. 🙂
