Once you try chocolate chip cookies from a Traeger Grill, you'll never want to go back to your oven!

A sweet treat done the Traeger way.

A quick and easy pumpkin pie with a little Traeger goodness.

Delicious pumpkin cookies that are crisp on the outside, and soft and gooey on the inside.

These Traeger'ized cookies make a great treat, or a tasty breakfast!

An apple, oat, and raisin cookie even better than grandma used to make!

Perfect for the holidays, or any occasion! This Traeger spin on a pumpkin pie is sure to impress!

‘Tis the season for apples! Learn for yourself the great affinity apples and wood smoke have for each other by baking your next apple pie on your Traeger. Serve the pie with vanilla or cinnamon ice cream.

Roasting on a Traeger intensifies the flavor of cranberries. This jewel-like relish can be made up to three days ahead, and is delicious on turkey sandwiches. Feel free to substitute port for the orange liqueur.

For a more festive presentation, transfer the Maple-Cinnamon Butter to a pastry bag fitted with a star tip and pipe the butter onto parchment paper or wax paper. Chill before serving. Leftovers a terrific on pancakes, waffles, or toast.

A surprise ingredient - bacon - completely transforms a traditional holiday cookie in a recipe a friend shared with us. You can cook the bacon on your Traeger at a previous grill session, but be sure to harvest the drippings. You can save them in a covered container in the refrigerator until you have the required 1/4 cup. These cookies make great gifts...if you can bear to part with them.

These brownies are a cinch to make (especially if you use a packaged brownie mix) but yield professional-looking and tasting- results! If you don’t like amaretto, put a drop of peppermint oil in the ricotta mixture. (Be careful as a little goes a long way.) Or leave the flavoring out entirely and just go with vanilla. A nonstick pan is a big help, but if you don’t have one, line your pan with buttered foil or parchment paper. After the brownies have cooled completely, invert them on a wire cooling rack and remove the foil or paper.

Just like Grandma used to make! For an extraordinarily pretty dessert, replace some of the strawberries with other mixed berries such as blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, or currants. Instead of making individual shortcakes, you can also bake one large shortcake (use an 8-inch cake pan for this instead of a cookie sheet), split it, fill with the berries, and then cut into wedges for serving.

Perfect for dessert after a casual fall supper, but fancy enough to serve on Thanksgiving. If desired, add a bit of Madeira, port wine, or even Grand Marnier to the apple cider before soaking the dried fruit. If you want a more pronounced smoke flavor, smoke the apples for 30 minutes before finishing on higher heat.

Wine makes this spice cake wonderfully tender. Garnish the plate with holly leaves.
