Not to be basic, but I LOVE pumpkin. It's kind of grown on me the past few years. Pumpkin used to be something I did not care for in large quantities (I would have two bites of pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving and I would be set until the next year). However, it started to grow on my a ton. So amazingly good and I'm finding myself looking for more tried and true recipes. I have a Pinterest board dedicated to pumpkin as well.
Last week I shared a recipe on here for my amazing 3 ingredient pumpkin muffins.
In the past week, I also made a skinny pumpkin spice latte and skinny (?) pumpkin spice Popsicles!
Skinny pumpkin spice latte:
-two cups almond milk (unsweetened vanilla)
-2 tablespoons canned pumpkin
-1 tsp sugar (add more or less to taste)
-vanilla extract (honestly I just pour a little in)
-pumpkin pie spice
-4oz extra strong coffee (I used some cold brew I had leftover)
Combine milk, pumpkin, and sugar in a sauce pan and simmer until it gets hot. Add everything else. It made me a GIANT travel mug of this amazing pumpkin spice goodness and only 123 calories for the whole thing!
Skinny pumpkin spice Popsicles:
(Measurements are weird cause I adapted a recipe for 8 Popsicles originally to be 6 Popsicles)
-1 1/2 cups fat free half and half
-3/4 cup canned pumpkin
-1/2 cup smashed reduced fat vanilla wafers
-2 tablespoons sugar
-1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Mix and pour into 6 Popsicle molds and freeze. Mine were about 100 calories each!
Ok your turn: what is your favorite pumpkin recipe?

Good morning! I drink cafe latte flavored shakeology in the mornings because I forget to eat breakfast often.
I love adding in 1 tbsp. of pumpkin puree, a dash of pumpkin spice, a dash of cinnamon, half a cup of almond milk, and about 6 ice cubes. Yum!1 -
I often make cornmeal mush and love to turn it into a pumpkin pudding by adding some canned or home cooded and pureed pumpkin to the pot and some cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger. I use half milk and half water when I do this.2

Just Roast Pumpkin in the oven with Roast vegetables sprinkles (spice mix). Mix with a stick mixer and add some water (to taste) and you will have the creamiest and tastiest pumpkin soup, why make it harder that it is2

I've seen a few pumpkin pancake recipes out there. I adapted several of them to make my own version. I made this this weekend and they were scrumptious. Feel free to try them or adapt them however you like.
Pumpkin Buttermilk Pancakes- Yield: 12 pancakes
Ingredients
• 1½ cups buttermilk
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 1/3 cup eggbeaters
• 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
• 1 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup whey protein powder
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground ginger
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
• ½ teaspoon salt
1. In a bowl, mix together 1½ cups buttermilk, pumpkin, egg, and butter. In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cloves, cinnamon, ginger and salt.
2. Stir the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture just enough to combine. Add extra buttermilk if the batter is too thick.
3. Let batter rest on the counter for 15-20 minutes.
4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. , and then scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately ¼ cup for each pancake. Flip when bubbles form and pop, and when a lifted edge is golden brown.
5. Serve warm with maple syrup and butter.

Bump. I bought a 16 pounds cheese pumpkin and so far all I can think of doing with it is a pumpkin pecan cheesecake and some pumpkin soup (might try those pumpkin rolls though).0

I have a pumpkin soup recipe I love. It's very simple and low in calories.
~ a cup of canned pumpkin purée
~ a cup of unsweetened almond milk
~ a teaspoon of onion powder
~ a quarter of a teaspoon of salt
~ a packet of Splenda
Just blend it together then simmer on the stove until bubbling and hot. Stir it continueously, watch closely and don't let it burn. A meduim to medium high heat is what I use.
It's very thick, creamy, and filling
Around 70 calories a cup, 140 for the whole recipe.1 -
OMG I'M HAVING A WHITE GIRL MOMENT READING THESE.
Saving this post for later!0 -
You guys are so fancy. Lately I have just been opening a 29 oz can of pure pumpkin, adding 1.5Tbls of pumpkin pie spice, 1/3 cup of powdered Swerve, a pinch of salt and just eating it straight like that or dipping my pumpkin spice cake into it. Tastes like delicious.1

This was breakfast. Tasty! Can easily use pumpkin instead of squash, obviously.

Still got 3 cups of pumpkin to use or something... plus whatever's frozen, lol.0 -
These all sound good... re the canned pumpkin, is this just cooked pureed pumpkin? I'm in England & I've never seen it for sale canned, but there are whole pumpkins for sale everywhere and really cheap, so thinking I could just chop boil & puree it myself?0
