Pumpkin Addiction



I have quite an addiction to pumpkin. :) My amazing friend, Rachel showed me this decadent recipe for Pumpkin Fluff, and that got me thinking. Now that October has hit, I am anxious to start making as much with this beautiful squash as possible. I loved this recipe for Easy-as-Cake-Muffins (with pumpkin) by Two Curlytops that i saw in the comments as well!

Do you have a favorite pumpkin recipe? I'd love to give it a try!

  6. I love pumpkin as well, in fact I can't get enough. My favorite new thing from last year was pumpkin butter. You have to try it, so good spread on fresh bread.

  8. Pumpkin cookies with butterscotch chips and craisins. YUM. They're more cake-y than cookie-y, which I love.

  9. Yes! I'll post my recipe on my blog later this month for Pumpkin Muffins (or bread), but I wanted to share this with you:

    When pumpkins go on sale the day after Halloween, I always buy 2 or 3 med-large ones. I cut them in half, gut them (and toast the seeds!), peel them, and roast them in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes, insides facing upwards. I pull them out, let them cool, and cut them up into cubes.

    Stick them in the freezer in a gallon bag and thaw them next time a recipe calls for "pumpkin puree." Puree the thawed cubes in a blender (or with an immersion blender) and you've got a healthy, no sugar added and no HFCS way of adding pumpkin to your favorite recipes.
