These pumpkin dessert recipes are required to kick start the fall baking season!

Happy October! You know what this means, right? Well, for me, it means that time is going to fly right through the holidays now that fall is here and it’s cool enough for me to bake to my heart’s content!

October always triggers the need to have pumpkin – in any shape or form – in my kitchen, but making pumpkin dessert recipes is my favorite.

I hope I’m not alone and there are some pumpkin loving friends out there. That said, I’ve been thinking of some pumpkin desserts to make. My son’s ‘Fall Festival’ event is coming up in a few weeks at his school and I’ll be managing the concessions this year. Aside from that, I’ll be baking up some treats for the school’s student council bake sale and donating a cake for the Annual Cake Walk. I guess it goes without saying that my oven will be getting quite a workout lol.

I started going through the various pumpkin dessert recipes on my site and if you’re looking for something to bake that incorporates pumpkin, you’re in luck! Here are some of my favorite pumpkin dessert recipes, so you can get into the spirit of fall, too!
