Are you excited for Fall?
Officially Fall starts next week but it doesn't stop us from bringing it into the house a week early
Crisp and colorful leaves, apple picking, slow-cooked stews, cool weather, comfy clothes, and pumpkin spice everything... We can't get enough of the warm and "fuzzy feels of fall"! So we came up with a five-ingredient scent simmer to bring fall inside — any time of year.
Ingredients:
- 6 cups of water
- 1 apple cut in half and any leftover apple peels
- 1 orange cut or leftover orange peels
- 1 Tablespoon of whole cloves
- 1 Tablespoon of cinnamon or 3 cinnamon sticks
Directions:
- In a soup pot, add all ingredients and bring to a slow simmer.
- Turn to the lowest setting and enjoy for hours, adding water as needed.
You can also put all of your ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on low with the lid off.
Mix up your homemade simmering scents with whatever you have on hand - there are no rules!
Other Ingredients to Consider:
- Star anise
- Ginger
- Allspice
- Nutmeg
- Pine needles
- Fennel seeds
- Cranberries
Simmer up a pot of yummy smells before a party at your home, or just on a cozy weeknight with your family. Celebrate the season with the delicious smell of fall!
