Sweet and Savory Pumpkin Recipes to Make This Fall

Our best sweet and savory pumpkin recipes are rounded up here to give you all the best ways to enjoy this seasonal fruit. We have your breakfast, dinner and snacks covered so you can enjoy all the nutritious and delicious pumpkin recipes and make the most of pumpkin season.

Fall has arrived and with it has come all the pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin pies fans have been dreaming of. While I am a big fan of both of these fall treats, there are so many more ways to enjoy pumpkin this time of year. As huge fans of pumpkin, my family loves incorporating this seasonal fruit into as many meals as we can think of.

I’m excited to share with you some of our favourite pumpkin dishes in this round up. The sweet and savory dishes I am sharing with you are easy to make, delicious, and instant hits with family and friends.

These pumpkin recipes will tantalize your taste buds and satisfy your belly. They can be made using fresh or canned pumpkin. I am partial to canned pumpkin, personally, as it is much easier to work with but fresh works too.

This post is divided into two major categories- sweet and savory dishes with some further sub-categories to help you jump right to the recipe you are craving.

Sweet Pumpkin Recipes

One of my favorite things about Fall baking is all of the pumpkin treats you can whip up.

Add to that the pumpkin-y breakfast options and you have many sweet pumpkin options to enjoy any time of day. Get that jar of Pumpkin Pie Spice ready, there are many ways to put it to use!
