Why You’ll Love These Pumpkin Recipes

It’s that time of year–time for all things pumpkin and pumpkin spice! Okay, maybe pumpkin spice season has gotten a little crazy lately.

It’s probably because pumpkin lovers like me wait all summer to start cooking and baking with pumpkin.

True, some of the new pumpkin infused products have gotten a little weird. Which is why I’m sharing some delicious, classic pumpkin recipes for you to try this fall.

I confess, most of them are pumpkin-inspired recipes for desserts and sweets, with a few savory options, like pumpkin cornbread thrown in for variety.
