I promise.
I promise that, after Thanksgiving, I will put the pumpkin away for the rest of the year (at least as far as blog recipes are concerned).
Until that time, here’s a look back at all of the pumpkin-y goodness with which I’ve bombarded you these last two months:
Come June and July, I will still be eating this breakfast cereal. It is much too delicious to stay away until Fall comes around again.
This is a good recipe to bring to parties. The bars always disappear quickly!
Just like regular peanut butter, this recipe is good on toast or muffins, mixed into oatmeal, or just eaten straight from the jar.
Single-Serving Chocolate-Chip Muffin
Lock your doors and draw the shades. This muffin is not for sharing.
When I brought this to a party, even people who said they didn’t like pumpkin kept coming back for more of this addictive dip.
A much healthier version of the giant skillet “cookie pizzas” made famous by BJ’s Brewhouse.
Chocolate Pumpkin-Pie Brownies
Sweet pumpkin, rich chocolate, and creamy vanilla. What more could you possibly ask for? Except maybe a fork. And a napkin.
Delicious chocolate cookie balls, with a soft pumpkin center.
It’s like biting into a warm pumpkin-oatmeal cookie. For breakfast.
Question of the Day:
Do you have any favorite pumpkin recipes?
Feel free to leave links.
I hope you’ll save room for just one more pumpkin recipe on my blog: pumpkin pie! Not just any pumpkin pie, though. After all, this is a chocolate-covered blog…
Thank you! I have SO much pumpkin. I bought the massive cans (and there are only 2 of us at home) and I feel like just when I’m about to finish what’s in the fridge I have to open another can for like 2 T of pumpkin. I too have been trying to be creative in using it! I will have to make some of yours 🙂
If you are interested, here are some of my pumpkin-y recipes (vegan!) If you don’t have time to click, no biggie. I know you are a busy lady 🙂 Just posting the ones that are vegan.

Pumpkin Oatmeal (probably similar to yours): http://differentpocket.com/2011/10/30/pumpkin-oatmeal/
I definitely am interested! And I know others will be, too!
Thanks girl 🙂 Just yesterday I was wishing I had a Katie-like roomie that would share a love of vegetarian/vegan food with me. My carnivorous roomie (husband) doesn’t quite share my excitement over veganizing dishes.
Please, don’t put the pumpkin away! It is sooo delicious! 😀
Eeep! All these recipes look great! They all got me excited 😀
OMG everything looks so good, I have a 1/4 can of organic pumpkin that I need to use, up Thanks so very much!!
I would love to try your pumpkin cereal 🙂 Do you think it would work with All-Bran? Not the flakes. I have some at home so maybe I could try it! And I’ve also never had baked oatmeal, so I am definately going to try your recipe 🙂 Do you ever get like “sweeted out”? Where you just have no appetite for sweets?
Haha yeah I definitely get sweeted out! I’ve gotten to the point where I said, “I never want to look at another brownie!”
But then, the next day, guess what I was craving again? 😉
I don’t know how it’d taste with the all bran, but of course you can try!
Nooooo don’t get rid of pumpkin!!! I made your pumpkin cream cheese bars for the roommates and they LOVED them 🙂
I love pumpkin too! Thanks for all the pumpkin links in one place. It’s beautiful just to ooh and ahh over them.
My favorite pumpkin-y thing to make in the fall is a really hearty pumpkin bread:

I just posted my own rendition of Jamba Juice’s Pumpkin Smash to my blog. I still haven’t come up with my dream of making it with just whole foods, but that day will have to come later.
