Around this time every year, I start craving fall. I love fall. It’s my favorite time of year. I want to put a pot of chili on the stove and some pumpkin pies in the oven. I want to decorate with jack o lanterns, plant mums and plan costumes while wearing a sweater and cozy boots.
But then I remember that I live in Phoenix, that it’s 149 degrees and that fall is probably six months away. And with further thought I realize that I really never need a sweater, or boots, even in winter, and I’ve never planted a mum in my life. There goes that plan. But there is no reason I can’t day dream about fall, and all things pumpkin. Let me share with you my pumpkin day dreaming…
I’ll start with my contribution. My low fat pumpkin muffins.
I have been messing with this recipe for probably two years, and it’s pretty much reached perfection (at least for our tastes). It is so moist and flavorful. Last month I made a loaf of full fat pumpkin bread (for my one year old little pipsqueak who is in the 5th percentile and needs all the fat she can get). We all agreed, the low fat version beats a full fat version, hands down. Much like my banana chocolate chip muffins, these freeze wonderfully. I also like to make them in muffin top pans or whoopie pie pans.
On to the recipes! I have to say I think the most creative pumpkin recipes go to the wonderful Jenny at Picky Palate. Her pumpkin recipes are so fun, creative and outside the box. Now lets see what other bakers and bloggers are doing with pumpkin…

Check out Cookin Cowgirl for their pumpkin recipe round up. And to wrap it up, one that’s not for eating. I try to stay focused on the topic of food, but I had to share this. HOW CUTE IS THIS????? I must do this – chalkboard paint on a pumpkin – a countdown? Seriously???? LOVE IT! From Paper Princess Chronicles…
Now if someone could get Fall to hurry up and get here.

WOW!!! Glad to see TONSSSSSSSSS of recipes all in one place… I bookmarked lots of them!

What a wonderfully delicious collection… I have the desire to make all of these recipes, but my doctor would not be pleased as I am diabetic. I will have to look into these recipes further to see how I can modify them for me… not reducing the sugar content, but eliminating the allspice that a majority of pumpkin recipes contain and to which all the women in my family are allergic.

This is honestly the BEST blog I’ve seen all day. I have been looking for good pumpkin recipes and I kept finding the same boring pumpkin pies and such until I found this!!! Thank you!!! Wonderful post!!!
