5 Pumpkin Treats That Are Sure To Please

In kitchens across the nation, when October rolls around, the pumpkin baking begins. I keep cans of pumpkin in my cabinet all year and bake with it whenever I feel up to it, but I do have to admit, I feel up to it a lot more frequently in the fall!

Pumpkin, Cranberry, and Pecan Pie – this pie combines all of my favorite fall flavors into one amazing pie. I made this recipe multiple times last fall and plan to make it again this year as well.

Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake BrowniesCara is a pumpkin goddess in my mind. She developed a recipe for a these and I tweaked it a bit. They’re insanely delicious even if you wouldn’t think pumpkin and chocolate go together.

Pumpkin Praline Cake – Any cake that is made with caramely deliciousness on the bottom then flipped over is going to be amazing. This cake is no exception to that rule.

Thanksgiving Two-Fer Bars – I made Dorie Greenspan’s pie into a bar. You should too.

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls – When I decided to make these, I consulted with Bridget about how to make pumpkin cinnamon rolls. Then she posted this Pumpkin Yeast Bread, which I made into cinnamon rolls. It’s a great way to enjoy pumpkin for breakfast!

Don’t forget about my Power of Pink Challenge – make something PINK by the end of the month to raise Breast Cancer Awareness!

    So glad you liked it, Jen! And what a pretty picture. I have been trying to think of something to make for your Power of Pink challenge but I just haven’t done much baking lately at all (and for some reason, savory pink ideas are escaping me!)

    I actually haven’t made it yet, but I do have a pumpkin pasta dish bookmarked for the weekend. : ) This one sounds delicious though. I might need a change of plans now!
