It’s pumpkin fever time!!! It’s that time of year when pumpkin flavored everything floods the shelves and coffee shops. I LOOOOVE it! I love the smell, the taste, the warmth, even the color of pumpkin. I love to roast them and make the whole house smell of autumn. Life is good with a pumpkin in the oven! This year we’re really into these homemade roasted pumpkin lattes. This cuppa is richly flavored with real roasted pumpkin, warm spices, and a touch of sweet maple syrup to turn any day around. I know what I’ll be sipping while doling out sugar bombs to already hyper children this Halloween!
What are some of your favorite pumpkin dishes?
