Better Than a PSL: The 12 Best Fall Cookbooks

Alton Brown's been busy with his Eat Your Science tour and various Food Network shows, but he's finally publishing a new cookbook, EveryDayCook ($35), featuring recipes he claims he cooks regularly for himself. To match his chill vibe, the food photography has been shot on his iPhone camera. With recipes like Nitrous Pancakes, EnchiLasagna, and Garam Masalmon Steaks, it appears the book will contains equal parts food science and Alton's lovable, punny humor. — AMR
