The Best Pumpkin Recipes: Tried and true pumpkin recipes that are favorites of ours!
You can’t go wrong with these delicious fall recipes!

I think that my favorite fall flavor is pumpkin. I love that pumpkin-flavored everything spans from September to November, and that pumpkin is so versatile it can be used in almost any type of recipe.

What is the most popular use for pumpkins?

Most pumpkin recipes start with pumpkin puree. You can buy it in canned form, but it’s so easy to make it yourself. We have directions for the simple process of making your own pumpkin puree here.

Pumpkin puree is best made using the little pie pumpkins, rather than large carving pumpkins, as the puree will have more flavor and be less watery. There are also several squashes that can be used to make pumpkin puree (technically squash puree if you use squashes), such as banana squash or Dickinson squash.

Pumpkin Spice Mix

Many pumpkin recipes also call for pumpkin pie spice, which we also have a simple recipe for. Get the Pumpkin Pie Spice Recipe.
Some of these recipes use pumpkin spice mix, but others have you mix in spices.

Once you’ve got pumpkin puree in hand, you’re ready to pick your recipe. We’ve put together an assortment of The Best Pumpkin Recipes. These are tried and true recipes that we’ve made and loved! These are the recipes we make and remake every single year, and that our families look forward to each fall.
