I love fall and all that it comes with. The changing colors, the smell of burning leaves, the sweater weather, and most of all pumpkin recipes. Growing up we pretty much had pumpkin bars and pumpkin pie. So in the last Ten years, I have seen so many pumpkin recipes show up on Pinterest that I tag and make all the time. As a realtor for the majority of my life, I have had the pleasure of hosting Open Houses for many years. I always think making something to make the house smell great and pumpkin is a great Fall choice.
Don’t get me wrong, I love all sorts of sweets, but Fall and Pumpkin were made for each other. I would like to share one recipe with you that I truly think is amazing for fall.
Oh yeah DON’T FORGET THE APPLE CIDER!
