October 1, 2013 by Louise 5 Comments

Every baker I’ve ever met seems to have a love affair with autumn. I’m no exception. The awesome flavors we associate with fall are just too good to pass up! And the king of autumn flavor? Pumpkin, of course! These recipes for pumpkin desserts are about as good as it gets.

Enjoy the best of both worlds! Reminisce about that summer night spent sitting around a bonfire and enjoy your favorite autumn flavor at the same time with these delectable Pumpkin S’more Cupcakes. (Via Milk and Honey.)

With autumn winds soon blowing in your direction, it’s time to pour yourself a cup of hot, comforting tea and make these gluten-free Pumpkin Scones with Cinnamon Glaze. Best enjoyed on a lazy Sunday afternoon in September. (Via All Day I Dream About Food.)

    Pumpkin seems like the main flavor of autumn and the best pumpkins grow during this season too. Good read.

    It’s so true, isn’t it! I haven’t seen Pumpkin Fritters before and those look sinfully delectable.

    But you know what else everyone loves this time of year? Pumpkin spice lattes. I hadn’t had one until last year and fell in love. I loved it so much I decided to try to capture the taste in the form of a cake and well, I’m not one to boast but let’s just say I succeeded! I made a Browned Butter Pumpkin Spice Cake with Vanilla Bean-Latte Swiss Meringue Buttercream. and it’s so crazy delicious (I guess I am one to boast, at least about this cake anyway!). You can see it here: https://bit.ly/RJIblU It made it and brought it to work and literally had a line at my desk it was so popular.
