This October, make sure to take a trip to the Hunts Point Produce Market to purchase some of our delicious produce. To learn what will be in season, please visit our website.

The Fruits 

Fruits should make up an essential part of your daily food consumption. They are filled with natural sugars that give your body the energy it needs to complete everyday tasks. Many fruits also help keep you full throughout the day, allowing you to eat less and manage your weight. Fruits always taste their best when they are in locally in season, so we recommend purchasing the following from us this October:

  • Apples.
  • Figs.
  • Grapes.
  • Pineapple.
  • Pomegranate.

The Vegetables

Vegetables are an equally important part of a healthy diet. They can be consumed raw, or diced up and cooked in a variety of healthy recipes. Much like with fruit, eating vegetables is a great way to have you feeling full for long periods of the day. If you visit the Hunts Point Produce Market during October, we recommend picking out the below vegetables:

  • Cauliflower.
  • Cabbage.
  • Potatoes.
  • Mushrooms.
  • Leeks.

White Chocolate Pumpkin Snickerdoodles

Recipe courtesy of SallysBakingAddiction.com

 

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup (50g) packed light or dark brown sugar
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar, divided
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 6 Tablespoons (86g) pumpkin puree 
  • 1 and 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup (90g) white chocolate chips or chunks

Directions: 

  1. Melt the butter in the microwave. In a medium bowl, whisk the melted butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar together until no brown sugar lumps remain. Whisk in the vanilla and pumpkin until smooth. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, toss together the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix with a large spoon or rubber spatula. The dough will be very soft. Fold in white chocolate chips. They may not stick to the dough because of the melted butter, but do your best to have them evenly dispersed in the dough. Cover the dough and chill for 30 minutes, or up to 3 days.* Chilling is mandatory.
  3. Take the dough out of the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  4. Roll the dough into balls, about 1.5 Tablespoons of dough each. Mix the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Roll each of the dough balls generously in the cinnamon-sugar mixture and arrange on 2 baking sheets. Slightly flatten the dough balls because the cookies will only slightly spread in the oven. The photo above shows what the cookie dough balls should look like before baking.
  5. Bake the cookies for 11-12 minutes or until the edges appear set. The cookies will look very soft and under-baked. Remove from the oven and press a few more white chocolate chips onto the tops, if desired. If you find that your cookies didn’t spread much at all, flatten them out with the back of a spoon when you remove them from the oven.
  6. Cool cookies for at least 10 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring to a wire rack. (Tip: The longer the cookies cool, the chewier they will be!)
