Scrumptious Fall Caramel Sauce Desserts

We love fall - the turning leaves, the crisp air, the slanted light. And, perhaps best of all, cozy fall baking in warm ovens emitting the scent of ginger, pumpkin and apple.

Below, we’ve rounded up some of the most scrumptious-looking fall desserts, which - you guessed it! - include a caramel sauce element. A drizzle of deep, dark, smooth caramel sauce can make a dessert pop, especially one loaded with home-made goodness and a dash of pumpkin. From galettes to cupcakes to cakes and pie and bars - we dare you NOT to try to bake one of these gorgeous-looking recipes.

Salted Caramel Pear Pie with Ginger Gelato

SALTED CARAMEL PEAR PIE WITH GINGER GELATO

As the recipe states “a pear pie lightly spiced and sweet with salted caramel, encased in a crispy, flaky all-butter crust and topped with fresh ginger gelato.” Need we say more?! If you don’t have an ice cream maker and can’t find ginger gelato, we’re sure plain or ginger whipped cream could be good too.
