Alternative fall desserts

Kabocha crumble pie: Grace

Custard for Midwesterners, squash for East Coasters. Believe it or not, Angelenos, in other parts of the world all kinds of squash, not just the pumpkin, are used to make desserts. Kabocha is a Japanese variety that’s trendy right now—well, as trendy as a squash can be—and tastes great as an after-dinner sweet. A little brown sugar and you’re good to go.
