Fall Pumpkin Recipes

Hi Reader,

Love pumpkin? Me too! With fall officially here this weekend, it’s time to kick off pumpkin baking season. Picture your kitchen filled with the cozy aroma of warm spices and freshly baked treats. From classic pumpkin bread to spiced cake and flaky biscuits, these recipes bring all the flavors of autumn in every bite.


This Pumpkin Spice Cake is incredibly moist, packed with flavor from the delicious pumpkin pie spice, and with the perfect crunch from pecans in each bite. It’s a classic combination that will never go out of style and will make an ideal addition to your Thanksgiving menu or any fall gathering!

Before the cold weather arrives, learn how to make this straightforward 1-bowl pumpkin biscuits recipe. These biscuits retain their flaky texture even with the addition of pumpkin!

This pumpkin bread is all about the cozy fall flavors! Made from scratch, it features pumpkin flavors elevated with pure maple syrup and dark brown sugar, plus a blend of fall spices for that perfect autumn treat.

This pumpkin pie has the perfect sweetness and pumpkin flavor for that classic pie I know you’ve been craving! Combine this recipe with my pumpkin pie crust, and you have the easiest and best pumpkin pie from scratch! Trust me, you’ll want to save this recipe to make every year!

Transform a normal old cornbread into a fantastic autumn-inspired side with a touch of pumpkin and spice. Pair it with a hot bowl of soup, a plate of salad, or a cup of ginger tea for a hearty morning breakfast.

Pumpkin gooey butter cake is a delicious fall dessert that features a fluffy pumpkin layer over a homemade cake, all topped with a dollop of whipped cream.

These homemade pumpkin bars are super moist, with a homemade cream cheese filling, and are more cakey than traditional pumpkin bars. Easy to make and the perfect treat for fall.
