A fragrant, sweet-spiced smell will fill your home while making this delicious applesauce.

Roasted apples are a simple dessert and will make your house smell wonderful when you slide them into the oven before sitting down to dinner. If you don’t have five-spice powder, substitute with cinnamon or another warm-spice blend—or make a mix of your own.

These hearty scones are great for breakfast or brunch, as a side for soups or stews or paired with salad for a light lunch. Only bake as many as you need since they are best enjoyed fresh. Wrap the remaining scones individually and toss in the freezer to bake up whenever you’re in the mood.—Camilla Wynne
