10 of the Best Pumpkin Recipes to Taste Fall Now

Oh, fall, we just love you for so many reasons. After summer’s heat and humidity, your cool, crisp air is a glorious change of pace. Your colors are astounding, bringing perspective each day as you turn the leaves into gorgeous shades of crimson and gold. Bundling up in sweaters and boots is exciting and new after a season of sweating it out in swimsuits and shorts.

But nowhere is our love for fall displayed greater than in the explosion of pumpkin everything in the past few years. Long gone are the days when pumpkin made a single appearance in the pie at Thanksgiving. Now, pumpkin is the marker by which we usher in the entire season, with the release of the Pumpkin Spice Latte being the unofficial marker of autumn.

And if you’re like us here at Grit and Grace Life, you can’t get enough of it all. We love pumpkin so much that we decided to round up 10 of the greatest pumpkin recipes out there to help you bring fall back to your kitchen.

Here are 10 pumpkin recipes that will help you catch those fall feelings:
