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!
I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
This is the perfect recipe for all of the leftover ingredients I have! Hubby made me buy a 3-pound bag of cranberries because he loves them, but you only use 12 ounces for cranberry sauce so I’ve got about 2 pounds of cranberries left to use, plus lots of pumpkins and pecans. This is definitely being made this weekend!
Oh man. That does sound good. And I know it must be if you’re repeating it because I am the same way. I’m going to make a cranberry maple pecan cake on Friday… but this is really tempting too.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Oh, man! If I only had more time for Thanksgiving dessert table – this is certainly one I would try.
Oooh this cake looks so ooey gooey and delicious! I wish there weren’t already so many desserts coming to my Thanksgiving table because I’d totally make this!

Your photos are beautiful! The pictures I took of the actual cake didn’t look to appealing, the photos I took of the bite sized cake bites looked pretty though lol
Good job!!
What a great recipe! You totally had me at caramel/pecan/cranberry topping.
Just finally made this cake and it is astoundingly good! Truly the best dessert I’ve had in…oh, a very long time. Thank you for your post!
I tried to be good, I really did! This cake was so delicious, I not only had seconds, I had a piece for breakfast the next day and for a snack later that day. This one goes on my Christmas menu!

I doubled the recipe this time and you’ll remember the middle didn’t quite bake through. It also spilled over a bit, so next time, I’ll put a pan under the cake in the oven.
