Fall charcuterie boards, particularly an autumn cheese board, are so much fun to make. I love the earthy colors and flavors that you can add when building a board. I love to host and making a cheeseboard for your guests is an easy and beautiful excuse to bring friends together in a creative way for Fall…with food! There are so many Fall charcuterie board ideas out there. I hope since you landed on this one, you can get inspired to make one…without meat!
If you’re looking for a cozy and neutral-toned cheeseboard this Fall, I’ve got the perfect inspo for you. Spoiler alert: we’re skipping the meat! Yep, this board is totally doable (and delicious) with just cheese and a thoughtful variety of earthy, seasonal snacks. It can be the perfect autumn cheese board experience.
I kept it simple and elevated using just two cheeses: a classic sharp Cheddar and a creamy, smoky Gouda. The combo gives that savory balance while letting all the other goodies on the board shine. And trust me, there’s plenty of flavor to go around in your autumn cheese board.
– Pumpkin yogurt-covered pretzels (obsessed with the subtle spice!)
– Mini apple pies (so cute and festive)
– Little buttery cookies and simple crackers
– Blackberries and sliced apples
– A spoonful of fig jam – perfect for pairing with either cheese
The trick? Keep your color palette soft and sandy. Think golden, amber, creamy beige tones with a hint of moody purple from the berries. This keeps everything feeling neutral and styled while still being totally edible.
This is a great board for a small gathering, wine night, or even a Thanksgiving appetizer. No need for meat to make an impact. Just layer in seasonal flavors, textures, and warm Fall tones. Your autumn cheese board will be the highlight!
