1. Pumpkin Spice Butter Cake aka “Crack Cake”

This Pumpkin Spice Butter Cake fully lives up to its nickname of “crack cake” because it is HIGHLY addictive. Even the pumpkin haters of the world who have tried this cannot get enough. This cake now replaces our typical pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving and we have never looked back! Honestly, if you don’t read any further, and only make this cake this Fall season, your life will be more than complete!

2. Pumpkin Ravioli with Parmesan Sage Cream Sauce

Most people think of pumpkin desserts for Fall, but we love using pumpkin in savory recipes, as well! Since we live and breathe pasta around here, we always make sure we make these Pumpkin Ravioli with Parmesan Sage Cream Sauce the second we get a nice cold front. They are so heart warming and the Parmesan Sage Cream sauce is an absolute dream!

3. Pumpkin and Roasted Red Pepper Soup

Another delicious savory pumpkin recipe that we can’t get enough of when the weather gets a bit chilly is this Pumpkin and Roasted Red Pepper Soup. This soup has such a creamy texture, but actually has zero cream added, making it a nice, light option that will still warm your heart and soul!

4. Pumpkin Passion Fruit Spice Cake

For a Summer meets Fall recipe, we absolutely adore this combination of pumpkin spice cake with a passion fruit mascarpone whipped cream frosting. We love the combination of warmth from the pumpkin spice with the bright and tart passion fruit whipped cream. This cake is perfect for September when it’s still a little warm and you aren’t quite ready for the big Fall transition yet! Also, this makes a great breakfast and snack cake option because it isn’t overly sweet like most cakes.
