The 54 Best Trader Joe’s Fall Items, from Pumpkin Bisque to Apple Pie a la Mode Ice Cream

Inspired by the annual spectacle that is fall foliage, this leaf-shaped pasta is the perfect way to ring in the new season. Organic turmeric and tomato powder help bring the autumnal hues to life, and there are tons of pastabilities (sorry, had to) when it comes to dreaming up a memorable meal. Might we suggest a homemade butternut squash mac and cheese?

What's more fall than roasted pumpkin seeds? Roasted pumpkin spiced pumpkin seeds! These snackable pepitas are first treated with a butter-and-sugar toffee glaze (yum), then seasoned with a mix of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and allspice (double yum). Sprinkle them over a harvest salad for some added crunch, or pair them with a mild goat cheese and a toasted baguette for a crostini appetizer that's sure to please.

Now this is a pairing I didn't know I needed (but am so glad exists). Pumpkin and caramel come together for a rich, buttery and decadent sauce that is begging to be drizzled over yogurt, ice cream or fresh-cut Granny Smith apple slices.

Bored of predictable pumpkin? Maple, in my opinion, is the unsung flavor of fall, and this boxed baking mix ups the ante with a chewy blondie bar base and an indulgent butterscotch drizzle.

The limit does not exist on the Trader Joe's pumpkin possibilities. Case in point: these pumpkin and cream cheese-filled croissants. For a fresh-from-the-bakery experience, throw one in the toaster oven while you cozy up under a blanket accompanied by a warm cup of TJ's pumpkin-spice coffee. (The Parisians might scoff, but they don't know what they're missing.)

Remember apple? The original star of fall? Well, these frozen bite-sized treats put the seasonal fruit front and center with a caramel and apple puree filling. And unlike that tedious homemade recipe you know you'll never make, these require just a quick stint in the oven to be table-ready. Family brunch calls for an overflowing plate of these mini apple danish pastries (sorry, I don't make the rules).

If you're looking for an easy way to romanticize even the most mundane weeknights, pick up a box of these leaf-shaped sugar cookies. Familiar and delicious, they pair perfectly with a piping hot cup of apple cider and a Meg Ryan movie marathon. Might we suggest starting with When Harry Met Sally?

If you're in charge of sides this Thanksgiving, look no further than this creamy corn pudding featuring sour cream, Parmesan and cheddar cheese. Whether you're cooking up a traditional turkey or a honey-baked ham, this dish is an age-agnostic crowd-pleaser that will complement just about anything.

The newest addition to the Trader Joe's bark family is this white chocolate number, featuring pumpkin pie spices, pretzel bits, gingersnap cookies and a drizzle of dark chocolate. As a sweet and salty lover, I can't wait to try this one.

Chocolate and caramel are a match made in heaven. Add in a sweet and cinnamon-y apple flavor profile, and prepare to be transported to a New England orchard in the fall. I don't know about you, but my mouth is already watering.

If the Trader Joe's pumpkin brioche twist is a little too sweet for you, try this new pumpkin sourdough bread instead. Pumpkin puree comes together with cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger to accent the signature sourdough tang and chewiness. A perfect compromise for the anti-sweet pumpkin lovers.

Yes, you read that correctly. Trader Joe's newest fall treat combines this standout cozy-season flavor with the classic Mexican sweet. At the heart of this no-bake dessert is a smooth and creamy pumpkin-infused custard, bathed in a caramel sauce that is ooey, gooey and ready to be devoured.

The name here says it all. Inspired by the indisputable best way to serve apple pie, this ice cream features a vanilla base studded with chunks of cooked apple, as well as bits of crumbly pie crust. It's then finished with a cinnamon- and nutmeg-spiced apple swirl (ya know, for good measure).

This might be my favorite new fall item of the bunch, so I'm relieved to know it'll be around now through the end of the holiday season.

Every September, I count down the days until this classic seasonal spread hits TJ's refrigerated section. Once it does, I go into full-on fall mode, smearing it over cinnamon raisin bagels, whole wheat toast and just about any other breakfast carb you can think of. The pumpkin pie ingredients (think vanilla, brown sugar, ginger, cinnamon and, of course, pumpkin) pair perfectly with the tangy cream cheese base, and the lightly whipped texture lets you pile it on without haste or hesitation. It's a must-get every season (if not every grocery run).

These pillowy pumpkin and potato bites are parent- and toddler-approved (just ask my 1-year-old). Ready in just two minutes, they're a weeknight savior—quicker than frozen pizza and way more interesting than mac and cheese. On their own, they lean more sweet than savory, so for the mature palates at the table, I like to mellow out the sweetness with a brown butter and sage sauce. Finish it with a squeeze of lemon and some freshly grated Parmesan and you've got a meal no one will complain about. Buonissimo indeed.

What's better than a freshly baked sugar cookie? A freshly baked pumpkin-themed sugar cookie! For your upcoming fall bake sale, block party or mahjong get-together, these ready-to-bake treats will be a total crowd-pleaser.

If you're a fan of TJ's iconic cocoa truffles (yup, the ones in the red box), these are just like that, but with a dash of maple sugar added for extra warmth and crunchy intrigue. Their macaroon-like shape and cocoa coating make them feel like a rustic DIY gift. The outside curbs the sweet interior with a powdery bitterness, while the inside is balanced with a hint of salt.

Contrarians have been on Team Apple over Team Pumpkin for years. Now, there's a new way to savor your favorite flavor of autumn, courtesy of our collective grocery boo. There's something for everyone in the bag too, since it includes sweet red apple gummies *and* sour green apple gummies, each filled with a juicy liquid center.

It's 2025—of course this exists. Give your cold foam habit a fall makeover with this coffee condiment that simply requires you to shake and dispense, like whipped cream. Of course, it'll be delicious on a pecan or pumpkin latte, but you can also use it on matcha, tea (Earl Grey, anyone?), milkshakes and hot chocolate.

Egg in the dough makes these waffles denser than what you order at, say, IHOP, but don't knock 'em 'til you try 'em. Pumpkin purée, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg spruce them up for the season, but the real star is the crunchy pearl sugar bits, dappled throughout each piece.

This tastes exactly like its namesake, only smoother and more spreadable with fewer pieces of fruit. Still, the apples are super tart and vibrant, while the base delivers all the buttery brown sugar sweetness you crave. This spread hits the spot on toast, pancakes, waffles and ice cream. You can also stir it into fizzy mocktails, soul-soothing libations and coffee drinks.

TJ's Maple Leaf Cookies are basically a seasonal delicacy, since they've been whipping them up in Canada since 2009—and they're everything you hope they'd be. They reminded me of my first maple creemee (aka Vermont soft serve) and offer vanilla-kissed pancake energy without any of that artificial syrup flavor. The cookie is also deeply maple-y and has a bit more crispness than most ice cream sandwich ends.

Your Black Friday turkey sandwich will taste a million times better with this seasonal snack by its side. Piney, savory and just a touch acidic, these fancy-ish chips are begging to be noshed on at a wine tasting, fall dinner party or movie night.

Speaking of cheese boards, these U.K.-made crackers are snappy, chewy, herby and crunchy, thanks to dried fruit, pumpkin seeds and rosemary. The tangy base is made with rice, tapioca and potato flours, as well as egg whites and buttermilk, so your wheat-sensitive guests can eat as many as they want.

These roasted almonds are enrobed in maple-brown sugar confectionary coating, then dusted with cocoa powder and maple sugar for good measure. They're thick and crunchy (I know, because I tried them), and the coating is generous and sweet with a pancake syrup-like edge. Could they use more salty brown butter flavor? Yes. But they'd still go great with yogurt, salad or a charcuterie board.

Not only are they festive, poppable, kid-friendly *and* scrumptious, but they're also shockingly free of both gluten and dairy. The doughnuts are made with a blend of tapioca starch, rice flour and cornstarch, along with a warming flurry of allspice, cinnamon, ginger, clove and nutmeg.

They weren't kidding—the mac is extremely creamy, and its flavor is more nuanced than the average alternative. The trio of Parm, cheddar and TJ's famous Unexpected Cheddar gives it a grassy, sharp edge that I enjoyed upon tasting it. The pasta is perfectly bite-size and al dente. Serve it with bread or another carb to soak up all the excess sauce.

A heat-and-eat holiday side? Don't mind if I do. Heavy cream makes them impossibly indulgent, while brown sugar, nutmeg and vanilla bean paste and seeds give it plenty of dessert-inspired flair (minus the marshmallows). BTW, there are also new Loaded Mashed Potatoes in stores, complete with sharp cheddar cheese, bacon, sour cream and scallions, in case those are more your speed.

Ridiculously tender, generously frosted and decidedly adorable—what's not to like about this treat? The tangy cream cheese topping is a delicious pairing for spongy, warm-spiced cake. Wash it down with apple cider and thank me later.

Before Starbucks takes your whole paycheck, try this autumnal joe on for size. Spiced with cinnamon, ginger, clove and nutmeg, the concentrate just needs to be cut with water or your choice of milk to be transformed into your go-to fall beverage.

What do you get when you reduce maple syrup down to its purest, most spreadable form? This creamy, sweet condiment that pairs just as seamlessly with French toast and yogurt as it does fried chicken and sharp cheddar cheese. (You can also stir it into your morning coffee...just sayin'.)

Right this way, lazy bakers. The pre-measured baking mix only requires butter, egg, milk and a good stir to turn into cookie dough. Finish each one with a cinnamon-kissed dusting of crunchy turbinado sugar, if you're feeling ambitious.

I'm betting it's impossible to only have one of these rich, crispy delights. Made in the U.K. in small batches, the cookies are packed with dried apples, apple juice concentrate and a gasp-worthy amount of butter. (Seriously: Each cookie is nearly 25 percent butter by weight.)

Whether you serve it with sliced Granny Smith apples, pear jam, seeded crackers or nothing at all, this limited-time cheese deserves a spot on your table before it disappears. It's infused with apple-pear compote, peppered with dried apple pieces and aged for six weeks until tangy and airy.

Complete with a comforting, rustic sugar topping. Cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, clove and vanilla make this moist treat firmly autumnal. Toast it and slather it with honey butter, dip it into a PSL or nosh on it straight from the package.

ICYMI, it isn’t officially fall until you scarf down one of these beauties. Made by a family-owned bakery in Western Massachusetts, the doughnuts are supremely fluffy and slightly tangy, thanks to real apple cider.

"Every year, I buy one box of apple cider doughnuts and proceed to eat them in a shameful span of maybe three days," PureWow editor of SEO and audience development Marissa Wu confesses. "I look forward to it always! [They have a] good cinnamon-sugar ratio and apple flavor. While they're not super soft, I do like the texture; it's firm with a bite to it."

Because a wheat allergy should never stand between you and pasta. This tender ravioli is stuffed with pumpkin purée, kabocha squash and three cheeses (ricotta! Parm! mozz!). A touch of honey, brown sugar and wintry spices drive the seasonal flavor home.

In case you need a reason to extend s'mores season past Labor Day, these 'mallows are a great excuse. With a sweet, caramel-like aroma and a pillowy soft texture, you'll be shocked they're vegan and gluten-free.

Crowned with breadcrumbs, pumpkin seeds and chives and loaded with rosemary, pepper and ginger, this nutty dish is sure to impress. The real magic lies in the velvety, smoky butternut béchamel, made from puréed carrot, butter and provola cheese (aka provolone’s unaged cousin).

Assembling an epic fall charcuterie board? This mix of dried cranberries, pepitas, maple-rosemary almonds and pecans dusted with red and black peppers will be a welcome addition. Pair the snack with buttery, sharp or herbaceous cheeses.

A cozy combination of rolled oats, dried Honeycrisp apples, honey, molasses and a flurry of fall spices, this granola would taste divine on yogurt, atop ice cream, in milk or straight out of the bag. (P.S.: Honeycrisp apples are known for their super crunchy texture and sweet flavor.)

Chicken noodle who? If I'm sick (or perfectly healthy) this fall, I'll be leaning on this savory-sweet delight instead. A generous dose of tahini gives each spoonful a pleasant nuttiness that pairs beautifully with the creamy pumpkin base.

Sweet dreams are made of this. Think mezzi rigatoni pasta (which is equipped with thick ridges that hold sauce like a charm), doused in three-cheese béchamel and infused with butternut squash purée, nutmeg and sage. Best of all, it doesn’t require any prep—simply heat and eat.

This sweet-tart bev is a seasonal staple for a reason. (Really: TJ’s has been selling orchards' worth of the stuff for more than 20 years.) The apple base is spiced just right with cinnamon, allspice and cloves.

Ready a tall glass of milk, friend. These vanilla cookie sandwiches filled with pumpkin crème were a major labor of love for the TJ’s team. In fact, they tested 17 different versions before nailing the perfect batch, so you know they'll be revelatory.

Red sauce is classic…but boring after the millionth time. This twist is richer, creamier and sweeter than the usual, courtesy of pumpkin, butternut squash and carrots. With a touch of rosemary and sage, it’s pure fall heaven.

You'll want to dunk just about everything in this chai sipper, especially if you’re more into tea than fall lattes. The concentrate is steeped with allspice, black pepper, cardamom, clove, cinnamon and ginger in small batches for consistently complex, bold flavor.

This brown rice-oat cereal is made with real cane sugar, brown sugar and pumpkin, so fall fans may have a hard time not demolishing the whole box in one sitting. Serve them in a bowl with milk or toss them with pepitas, white chocolate chips and cinnamon-coated nuts for homemade trail mix.

Crunchy, crumbly and adorned with white yogurt and orange pumpkin icing and sprinkles, these shortbreads are as cute as they are delicious. Nosh on them straight from the box, crumble them on ice cream or dunk them in tea.

Now that we're on the subject of tea, this caffeine-free blend will conjure memories of leaf peeping, apple picking and bonfires of autumns past. Its flavor is apple-forward with a sweet-and-spicy finish, courtesy of cinnamon and ginger.
