Hi, Squirrelly Minds readers! I’m PJ from A Girl Named PJ, a lifestyle blog covering style, wellbeing, and motherhood. I have two young boys at home and can remember those first few wonderfully exhausting weeks with a newborn, so I’m happy to be here today while Tan enjoys lots of Rhys snuggles and some earned time away from her blog.
When Tan suggested a recipe post, I almost panicked because I’m not much of a cook. (Just ask my kids!) But then I remembered how much I love to eat — and this time of year, I’m partial to anything pumpkin-flavored. So I rounded up eight of the yummiest looking pumpkin spice recipes, which, not surprisingly, are mostly desserts.
1. Not only do these pumpkin muffins from Sarah Hearts have a super moist texture similar to pumpkin bread, but there’s cream cheese filling hiding inside.
2. For a deliciously seasonal grab-and-go breakfast, bake a batch of these chewy oatmeal pumpkin chocolate chip muffins from Avery Cooks.
3. Described as a cross between fudge and bark, The Kitchen Prep’s pumpkin spice latte bark would be the perfect complement to an afternoon cuppa.
4. If you prefer to go full fudge, this white chocolate pumpkin spice fudge recipe from Mom on Time Out would be my recommendation.
5. Sorry to burst your bubble, but there’s no actual pumpkin in a Starbucks PSL! On the other hand, the pumpkin spice coffee creamer recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction includes flavorful pumpkin puree.
6. Make The Cake Blog’s pumpkin cupcakes the day before and top them with homemade cinnamon-flecked cream cheese frosting before you serve them.
7. I won’t judge if you want to eat an actual dessert like leftover pumpkin cupcakes for breakfast. Or you can whip up Skinnytaste’s pumpkin spice cream cheese to enjoy on a bagel as a healthier option.
8. Because you can’t go wrong with a classic pumpkin roll. Plus, Gimme Some Oven’s trick for cutting perfect slices is genius.
