Fall Baking= Pumpkin Recipes!
Each year on my Instagram, I host a week of Pumpkin Palooza. It’s one week of recipes that ALL use pumpkin!! It’s seriously so fun! This year’s pumpkin palooza will kick off on Sunday, October 3rd!
Anytime you see pumpkin puree in the store, grab it!! It runs out so quickly and you want to make sure that you have enough on hand to try any of these recipes!
Be sure to grab pure pumpkin puree rather than pumpkin pie filling! Those are two different things and they are not used interchangeably.
You can also make your own pureed pumpkin out of small pumpkins by cooking it if you need to. The Pioneer Women can help you with that process!
Something else that may be handy to keep on hand the next few months is pumpkin pie spice! It’s a seasoning blend of pumpkin pie flavors like cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg.
I usually buy mine at Trader Joe’s, but you can also find it at lots of other stores too in the seasoning aisle.
Breakfast Pumpkin Recipes
