10 Customer-Favorite Fall Foods to Add to Your Costco Shopping List -- From Chicken Pot Pie to Pumpkin Streusel Muffins

Whatever the season, there's always a reason to visit Costco. Whether the low prices, free samples, or unique finds get you in the door, the warehouse chain has something for everyone. As the seasons change, so does Costco's inventory, giving us yet another reason to make a trip. With fall around the corner, it's time to say goodbye to beach chairs and sunscreen and hello to all things pumpkin, cozy, and autumnal. They're only here for a limited time, so don't miss out on Costco's best fall foods while they are still in stock.

Pumpkin Pie

It's not Thanksgiving without pumpkin pie, and unsurprisingly, Costco has the best deal around. Weighing nearly four pounds a piece, these gargantuan pies typically cost less than $6 each and can feed at least 12 people. They're one of Costco's best seasonal sellers, with millions of people purchasing the iconic pie every year.

Schwartz Brothers Bakery Cranberry Orange Scones

Orange season usually begins in late November, which is conveniently in the middle of fall. So it's a good time to bake with oranges or make dried orange slices for decor. To kick off orange season, you'll want to pick up a package of these cranberry and orange scones. It includes ten individually wrapped scones, which are perfect for sharing. You can enjoy them as is, or reheat them in a preheated oven for a few minutes for a cozy treat.

Califia Farms Pumpkin Spice Barista Oat Milk

Pumpkin spice -- you either love it or hate it. Many people love pumpkin spice because it encapsulates the warmth and coziness associated with fall. If you're one of those people, you're sure to love this pumpkin spice oat milk. Oat milk is known for being super creamy, especially in coffee, but this barista blend is even richer than regular oat milk. Use a milk frother to whip up foamy goodness for your homemade pumpkin spice lattes.

Chicken Pot Pie

It doesn't have to be fall to enjoy chicken pot pie, but at Costco it's considered a seasonal fall food, so get 'em while you can. Costco's savory pies are like the sweet ones -- large and cheap. If you need to feed a crowd, these bad boys will do the job. You'll find them in the refrigerated section, and when you get home, you'll need to refrigerate or freeze 'em until you're ready to bake. The pies can take a while to fully cook through, but the comfort food is worth the wait.

Pumpkin Streusel Muffins

Costco's pumpkin streusel muffins are a cult favorite. Shoppers take to social media every year to announce the arrival of the coveted item. Like Costco's other muffins, each pack contains six freshly baked pastries. Six may not sound like a lot, but keep in mind that Costco's muffins -- like most items in the warehouse -- are quite large. These muffins in particular are pumpkin flavored and topped with a tasty streusel. Shoppers recommend warming them up in the microwave and adding a little butter.

Rosemary Parmesan Cheese Loaf

Rosemary's technically in season during the spring and summer, but the savory herb is usually lumped together with fall flavors. It's used in Costco's Rosemary and Parmesan Cheese Loaf, which is found in the bakery section. Costco regularly changes out its loaves, so while this one isn't exclusive to the fall season, it often crops up a few times per year, including early fall. If you happen upon it, snag one because you may not see it again for a while.

Celebrity Cranberry Cinnamon Goat Cheese

Costco's cheese selection is top tier. From basic white cheddar to fancy cheeses like Brie, Costco has a wide variety with competitive prices to boot. Every year, Costco shoppers look forward to the seasonal cheese logs, including the cranberry cinnamon goat cheese. Each log is one pound, which is plenty big for charcuterie boards or holiday grazing tables. Plus, it adds a vibrant and festive pop of color to your meat and cheese spreads.

Caramel Apple Mini Cakes

Like the muffins, Costco's cupcakes (or "mini cakes" as they call them) come in a pack of six. Each one is large enough to share with another person, but the caramel apple mini cakes are so good, you'll want one for yourself. They're moist, frosted with a buttery icing, topped with apple slices, and drizzled with caramel. Apple season just so happens to coincide with fall, so this is the perfect dessert to get into the autumnal spirit.

Premier Protein Pumpkin Spice Shakes

If you're a pumpkin spice lover and want to embrace the quintessential fall flavor at every opportunity, swap out your regular protein shake for this pumpkin-packed version. Each one contains an impressive 30 grams of protein, but more importantly, they have a bold pumpkin flavor. Refrigerate these for a grab-and-go snack, or add a splash to your iced coffees or smoothies for a burst of protein and pumpkin in your beverages.
