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 Brownies – Cara 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!

These bars look absolutely amazing! I love the distinct layers!!
they look delish!
What size pan? I’m guessing 9×13. Looks like an awesome recipe, can’t wait to try it!

Anyone who loves caramel and pumpkin would love this, so I’m sure you would too!
I have to admit that, as a Brit, I have NO idea what a snickerdoodle is, but this sounds delicious and yummy and amazing and I WANT SOME. Tis the season to eat everything pumpkin-y.

Snickerdoodles are basically a sugar cookie with cinnamon. They’re very popular here in the US. I agree! Bring on the pumpkin 🙂
