November Dessert Ideas

With Halloween over and Christmas just around the corner November tends to be the filler month for many while getting ready for the holidays. However the first November frost brings the sweetest parsnips for roasting and baking, while freshly picked chestnuts should be roasted to bring forward their earthy sweetness and then use as required.
Coming into season are satsumas, pomegranates and quinces, while pears and apples are still in abundance. Here are a few ideas using this months harvest!!!
Parsnip Pound Cake

Combine two of this months harvest staples to make this delicious tart,
