This streusel-topped treat tastes so rich, no one will guess it’s chock-full of good-for-you ingredients such as oats, whole-grain pastry flour, and, of course, pumpkin.

This Provençal dish is a favorite throughout France, where large wedges of pumpkin are sold at vegetable markets in the fall and winter. If you don’t have fresh sage, substitute 1 Tbs. dried rubbed sage.

This hearty North African stew will ward off the first chill of fall with its colorful ingredients and warm, spicy flavors.
