Hello Reader! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted a new recipe. Between diving deep into my health coaching studies with NBHWC (National Board for Health and Wellness) and podcasting for Modern Persian Food, my kitchen has been a little quieter on the sharing front. But lately, I’ve had one recipe on repeat—so much so that I simply can’t keep it to myself any longer. This isn’t just any fall recipe; it’s my Pumpkin Pistachio Crunch. And while the name might sound like granola, let’s be clear: there are no oats here. This is a simple, clean, and ridiculously delicious blend of everything you crave this season. Fall is a time for fresh starts, a chance to get back into a routine, and really get things done. I’ve been in the coziest of autumn moods, from my chunky crochet pumpkin projects and my favorite nutty, sweet candle scents to the pumpkin spice coffee cream and, of course, this incredible crunch. This recipe is so good you’ll want to make a double batch. I promise you’ll find yourself sprinkling it on your morning yogurt, tossing it into your fall salads, and sharing it with everyone you know. Ready to make some magic? Let’s get to the recipe!

I'd love to help you take that first small step toward getting back into a routine and feeling like your best self. Ready to chat? Book a free call with me to talk about your vision. Schedule HERE. Can't wait to connect with you soon, Bita |

BITA ARABIAN Recipes • Coaching • Vitality Hi Reader. I’ve been a little quiet on this end lately, but for a good reason...I’m deep in the editing stage for my upcoming project, Power & Glow.

It was rewarding to see the recipes and wellness concepts move from my kitchen to the professional frame, and I wanted you to be the first to...

🍂 Coffee Date, Fall Food Finds ☕ Hi Reader! I’m back and settling into the energy of fall after a special multi-generational trip. My husband Bob, our daughters Leyla and Ava, and my 86-year-old mom, Maman Minoo, all explored the streets of London and Paris together over the last few weeks. This trip was a chance to travel in a “shoulder” month, off-season, now that both girls are officially done with school. Our younger daughter, Ava, joined us from New York, where she’s loving her new role...
