The 20 Best Recipes of 2024

Recipes

In 2024 our test kitchen published close to 300 new recipes. And of those, our staff certainly has its favorites. Associate director of drinks Joseph Hernandez loves this Divorce Salad. Senior test kitchen editor Jesse Szewczyk can’t get enough of this Southern-Style Caramel Cake.

But this end-of-year list is all about the recipes that were most popular with you, our readers. One subscriber from Toronto couldn’t believe these chocolate chip oat cookies were gluten-free (they most certainly are, all thanks to oats). And another from Boulder, CO, commented on this family-favorite chicken cabbage salad: “This recipe is worth my whole subscription.”

Standouts included decadent project bakes, with these beginner-friendly weed brownies earning first place; vegetarian numbers brimming with broccoli, corn, and spinach; and a good deal of chewy noodle recipes. Read on for our fan-favorite recipes of 2024.

You can find and save all of these dishes—and so many more—in the Epicurious iOS app.
