The Best of Pumpkin

It’s officially autumn and in a matter of days since I first blogged about fall, it’s really starting to feel like a new season. This morning when I took Aya around the block, I noticed that a few orange leaves had already fallen to the ground. Not to mention that I’ve had to wear a jacket and scarf these past couple of days…which brings me to the very best thing about the season: all things pumpkin!

I’ve loved pumpkin since I was little and  have distinct memories of rummaging through the dark oak cabinets of my family’s old brick house for cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and whatever else was needed to whip up my favorite fall treat (then and now): pumpkin pie.

Pumpkin pie is a classic and still my favorite, but I can’t help loving the countless other ways to spin pumpkin into desserts. Here’s a few of those recipes I can’t wait to try…
