Pumpkin foods forever! And since you’re here, I think you’ll agree. Below is a round-up of my top six favorite pumpkin recipes all tested and tasted by my family! Mostly carbs because I bake to enjoy and share, so there are no low-fat recipes here. Perhaps another day.

Six of my Favorite Pumpkin Recipes
Pumpkin Roll Bars
By: The Recipe Critic
I’ve been cooking these forever. I’m talking before kids forever. It’s just a solid, good pumpkin bar with that little tangy-creaminess from the cream cheese. They were always a hit at work! Plus, bars are so easy to share and bring to potlucks.
One Bowl Pumpkin Banana Muffins
By: Running with Spoons
These are great kid muffins to help bake and to eat. If you’ll notice above, I leave out half of the chocolate chips for my son who is 1 1/2 years old. But of course the 5 1/2 year old needs chocolate chips. These muffins aren’t overly pumpkin flavored because of the banana. So if someone in your family is on the fence about pumpkin, start with these.
Grandma’s Famous Pumpkin Bread
By: Yammie’s Noshery
Oh man where has this recipe been all my life! This is THE BEST pumpkin quick bread recipe out there. Period. I’m sorry to all other recipes but really, just don’t look anywhere else. It’s what a quick bread should be: quick, easy, moist and delicious.
The Great Pumpkin Pie
By: Sally’s Baking Addiction
My go-to pumpkin pie recipe. Another standard recipe I’ve been using for years because it’s just that good. It’s got a great balance of pumpkin and spice and it absolutely perfect for your Thanksgiving dinner!
Iced Pumpkin Coffee Cake
By: Sally’s Baking Addiction
I DON’T HAVE A PHOTO. Sorry guys, I’ll be making it soon again and post it once I do!
This coffee cake is rich, moist and delicious. I will say it can end up more on the sweet side. So if that doesn’t appeal to you, omit the icing drizzle and tone down the crumb topping. But I go all in because this soft and fluffy coffee cake is the absolute best with a nice hot cup of coffee. If you know tomorrow is going to be crisp and cold. You’ll want this to wake up to.
Go-to Hearty Oatmeal Pumpkin Chocolate Chips Muffins
By Averie Cooks
Hearty muffins that are great for the kiddos. These are heavy on the oatmeal so they end up looking more like granola muffins but everyone loves them. And it’s nice to have a pumpkin recipe with a little more fiber to it. So see…I did bake something kind of healthy!
