20 Mouth Watering Pumpkin Recipes

Fall is definitely one of my favorite seasons. I can’t seem to decide if I like fall or spring better though.  They seem pretty equal to me but fall brings my favorite flavor and scent, pumpkin!

I love pretty much all things pumpkin; baked goods, decorations, candles, etc.  In preparation for fall, I’ve saved a lot of pumpkin recipes over the past few months.  But I thought it was pretty selfish of me just to keep them all to myself. 🙂

Here are 20 interesting pumpkin recipes that make my mouth water just looking at them:
