Pumpkin Recipes

Each fall when the first frost hits the pumpkin and your favorite coffee shop starts to feature Pumpkin Spice Lattes, our attention turns to recipes featuring pumpkin. Pumpkins are that versatile squash that we use as a decoration in October and a cooking ingredient in November. Over the years, Vintage Recipes has added many pumpkin recipes to our collection, here are our most popular pumpkin recipes.

Pumpkin Pies

It appears that almost every collection has a recipe for pumpkin pie. Most of these recipes are what one would consider “traditional pumpkin pie”, but if you are looking for a “non-traditional pumpkin pie” for your Thanksgiving Dinner, consider Nancy Reagan’s Pumpkin-Pecan Pie, a No-Bake Pumpkin Pie made with cream cheese, or a Pumpkin Cream Pie.
