Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching, and I’m sure pumpkin pie is high up on the list of desserts to make. Many people use the recipe on the can of Libby’s pumpkin, but I wanted to try something different. This version sounded promising, so I decided to give it a try. After reading through the recipe, I [...]

I’ve been all about pumpkin lately, and I was so excited to see this recipe. It’s a lot like pumpkin pie, but in bar form. It starts off with an oat-flour crust, which is pre-baked before you add the filling. The filling is very similar to a filling that you would use for pumpkin pie, [...]

There is a lot of panic in the food world over the pumpkin shortage this year. I was not having any luck finding pumpkin where we live (and we live in a decent size city), but when I went to our college town about 45 minutes away, I decided to check out the grocery stores [...]

Before last year, I was never into baking or eating things with pumpkin in it, except for pumpkin pie and Thanksgiving. I tried Hershey’s Pumpkin Spice Kisses and made these brownies, and I was sold. Pumpkin fever had me. I baked a few pumpkin goodies last year, and couldn’t wait until this fall to try [...]

Happy Thanksgiving! I know it’s a couple days early, but Tuesdays with Dorie is already celebrating with the Thanksgiving Twofer Pie, chosen by Vibi of La casserole carree. I was instantly intrigued by this dessert because of the unusual combination. I’m not crazy about traditional pumpkin pie on its own, but I love pecan pie, [...]

I’ve been on a pumpkin kick lately. I guess I want to make as many pumpkin treats as I can before people decide that it’s not “pumpkin season” anymore. This pumpkin pie fudge has been on my list of things to make for a while now. I saw it on Confections of a Foodie Bride [...]

I’ve been wanting to make this pie ever since I got the amazing baking book Desserts by the Yard by Sherry Yard. It just looks so incredible and impressive, and I knew I just had to try it, and I love Sherry Yard’s recipes. I decided to make it for our last dinner group meeting [...]

When Annie posted this the other week, she reminded me that I bookmarked it from Peabody’s blog months ago to make this fall. I’m sure happy about the reminder, because this is a fabulous cake! I love that the flavors are so different from what you would typically find in a pumpkin cake. I love [...]

I was asked to bake the desserts for the Stewardship Dinner at my church. They told me to expect about 80-100 people and that I could bake whatever I wanted. I knew it would be a lot of work, but I was looking forward to it and I was very flattered that they thought enough [...]

Kelly of Sounding My Barbaric Gulp chose Pumpkin Muffins for this week. I was not surprised that something pumpkin would be chosen soon, since it is fall and pumpkin is all the rage! I do like muffins, but don’t make or eat them very often. I was excited about making these because I had been [...]
