Pumpkin Scones
These pumpkin scones are unlike any other scones I’ve tried before. I absolutely love this recipe because these scones are full of pumpkin flavor and warm autumn spices. They have a slightly crunchy exterior yet soft and cakey interior. Plus, they’re drizzled with the most amazing maple glaze!
Pumpkin Cupcakes
These moist, tender pumpkin cupcakes are perfect for fall birthdays and holidays. They’re easy to make and topped with velvety-smooth cream cheese frosting and a dash of cinnamon for the ultimate treat. Whip up a batch for your next holiday or office party!
Pumpkin Pie
This classic pumpkin pie recipe is the quintessential holiday dessert! It’s made with buttery, flaky pie crust and filled with rich and creamy pumpkin custard. I love topping each slice with a dollop of whipped cream or no-churn vanilla ice cream!
Pumpkin Pancakes
These pumpkin pancakes are soft, fluffy, and full of pumpkin flavor! Made with pumpkin spices and brown sugar, they’re the ultimate autumn morning treat. Plus, they’re so easy to make!
Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies
If you love chocolate chip cookies as much as I do, you must try these pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. They’re soft, chewy and made with pumpkin, warm fall spices, and loads of melty chocolate chips. These are my idea of fall dessert heaven – plus they’re so easy to make. No one can resist these incredible cookies!
Pumpkin Creme Brulee
This fall twist on classic crème brulee is creamy, rich, and topped with a thin layer of crunchy caramelized sugar. One bite of this heavenly pumpkin crème brulee and you’ll be in pumpkin dessert heaven!
Pumpkin Cookies with Maple Glaze
A soft, cake-like cookie that is full of pumpkin spice. These soft pumpkin cookies are not like your typical chewy cookie. Instead, they are soft and cakey, like a perfect muffin top. They taste amazing with a glass of hot apple cider.
Pumpkin Muffins
These pumpkin muffins are one of my most popular recipes, and for good reason! They’re exceptionally delicious and balanced in flavor. Made with ground spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, they have a combination of bread-like and cakey textures and are the perfect breakfast treat or dessert.
Pumpkin Torte (flourless, gluten-free)
This healthy fall dessert is refined sugar-free, contains no flour, and no dairy! It’s fudgy and decadent without being heavy and rich. A huge hit with our taste testers!
Pumpkin Bread
What is fall without pumpkin bread?! This pumpkin bread recipe is one of my family’s favorite seasonal desserts. It’s got great, bread-like structure that’s balanced with it’s wonderfully soft, cakey interior. Super moist and bursting with flavor, this is one recipe you’ve got to try.
Pumpkin Cheesecake
Pumpkin cheesecake is the perfect alternative to classic pumpkin pie. It’s made with a buttery, crunchy cookie crust and a creamy cheesecake filling bursting with pumpkin flavor. Top each slice with a dollop of whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon for the perfect holiday dessert that everyone will go crazy for.
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Blondies
Fudgy, chewy, moist, and perfectly spiced blondies are packed with the flavors of white chocolate, pumpkin, and a little cream cheese. Decorate however you’d like, but I’ve included instructions for making a spider web design on top for Halloween.
Pumpkin Banana Bread
Two of my favorite loaf cakes come together in this ultimate pumpkin banana bread. With the sweet richness of banana bread combined with classic pumpkin and fall flavors, this loaf cake is perfect served right alongside Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.
Pumpkin Spice Blend
The blend of ground cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves is what gives pumpkin desserts their amazing fall flavors. I keep a premade batch of this pumpkin spice blend in my kitchen and add a dash or two to desserts whenever I want to add some fall flavor. Try adding a teaspoon to panna cotta, chewy chocolate chip cookies, or my favorite white cake recipe to create your own autumn desserts!
Pumpkin Spice Latte
This homemade pumpkin spice latte is absolutely incredible, so skip the line at Starbucks! The combination of warm fall flavors and brown sugar combined with espresso or coffee makes a warm and cozy fall and winter drink you’re going to love.
