The Best Trader Joe’s Fall Products

At this point I am pretty sure my blood type is ‘pumpkin spice’. Trader Joe’s has outdone themselves this year with the fall items. Today I am rounding up all of the best Trader Joe’s fall products, as well as what you should pass on this year!

The Best Trader Joe’s Fall Products

1 // Non-Dairy Oat Beverage Maple Flavored | I am on my 3rd carton of this stuff. It tastes great in coffee and froths really well if you like to make lattes at home. One of you messaged me that you add it to your oatmeal and its a game changer!

2 // Butternut Squash Mac + Cheese | I have a serious love affair with this frozen item. Every time I go I purchase 2-3 for our freezer just to have over the winter because it usually sells out by November. The spices in it are so tasty and it makes a great side dish (or single serving dinner if you are like me).

3 // Autumnal Harvest Pasta Sauce | This is another item I stock up on to have all winter. JD and I LOVE this pasta sauce. It is made with pumpkin and butternut squash and is the perfect sauce for sweet and savory dishes. We like it over traditional pasta or spaghetti squash with sweet sausage mixed in. It would also be great in lasagna.

4 // Sweet Potato Gnocchi | I don’t have a photo of these, but you can find them in the freezer section. I believe Trader Joes carries this item year round, but it definitely more of a fall/winter dish. The flavor in the sauce is so good! I throw this in a skillet and will add chicken sausage and extra veggies to make it a bit more hearty for a full meal.

5 // Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spread | (also not pictured, you can find it in the refrigerated section with the dairy) If you see this BUY IT. It usually sells out in seconds and may or may not be restocked. This is the greatest pumpkin flavored cream cheese that I have tried. It also pairs well with the Pumpkin Cranberry Crisps (shown later). We added this combo to a charcuterie board and it was great!

6 // This Pumpkin Walks Into a Bar Cereal Bars | We don’t typically keep a lot of cereal bars in the house but we always grab a few boxes of these every year. I love them because they remind me of the Little Debbie Pumpkin Delights (the ones that look like smiley faces). I typically eat them as a mid-morning snack.

7 // Cinnamon Bun Spread | I tried this for the first time last year based on a follower recommendation. It has a sweet, buttery taste. I spread this on apples mostly, but have also tried it on waffles, pancakes, and mixed into oatmeal and it adds great flavor!

8 // Apple Cider Hand Soap | This is another product to just grab if you see it. At our store, these type of products sell quick for good reason. It is a foam soap with a great fall, spicy scent!

9 // Pumpkin Cranberry Crisps | These are the prefect addition to any fall charcuterie board! We like them with the pumpkin cream cheese spread or a soft spreadable cheese like brie or goat cheese with a fruit spread or cut up plums on top!

10 // Chocolate Mousse Pumpkins | also known as little slices of heaven. These miniature layer cakes change with the season and they are basically adult little debbie cakes. The chocolate is super rich, and the mousse inside is so velvety, you’ll love them!

Products to Pass On

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls & Pumpkin Waffles – these were good, but nothing special. You can find something similar at your regular grocery store!

Honey Pumpkin Ravioli – don’t get me wrong, I love pumpkin, but I don’t think I need it in my ravioli. I would opt for the Butternut Squash option instead if you are looking to try a fall flavor.

Pumpkin Body Butter – I am using this daily instead of my favorite coconut scented one. I will definitely finish it up because it is very moisturizing, but I prefer the scent and texture of the original.

Products I still have to try

These three Trader Joe’s products are still in my pantry waiting to be reviewed! Stay tuned for updates!
