Fall flavors are some of the best we see all year long. The comforting, warm flavors and spiced versions of classic dishes invade the atmosphere with nostalgic scents. It's a time for comfort food, memories, spending time with the people you love most and enjoying each other's company. For the next five weeks, we'll be sharing fall recipes that will have you dying to get into the kitchen. This one in particular is mouthwatering and absolutely irresistible.

Pork tenderloins are one of my favorite cuts of meat to cook with. They're simple to prepare and don't take much time to cook. They're also incredibly versatile for both flavor and cooking method. One of my favorite methods is in the cast-iron skillet because you can start on the stove and end in the oven without any mess. This particular recipe only needs to get popped in the oven though.

Fall flavors are pretty versatile. It's more than just pumpkin and apple, although both are spectacular. Maple, for example, is a fantastic flavor to use in fall. It pairs well with so many fruits, veggies and even meats. What's even greater about maple syrup is that it adds a hint of sweetness to a traditionally savory dish. Apples are easy to add into almost anything come fall. This combination of apples, butternut squash and Brussels Sprouts is spot on. Not only does this dinner scream fall, it's easy to prepare and the maple gives it a comforting, sweet touch that will have everyone licking their fingers when they're done.
