Pumpkin butter spread, cinnamon and ginger give these tender shortbread cookies a warm spice flavor. Enjoy these with a cup of hot cider or hot cocoa on a chilly winter night!

Scare up some Halloween fun with these homemade graham crackers, subtly flavored with pumpkin and spice, dressed up with royal icing and black candy chips! Happy Halloween, readers! For the past several months, I've been posting about recipes that I made for Liam's daycare class Snack Share. Now that Liam has "graduated" to the transitional …
Pumpkin and warm spices are tossed with rolled oats, flax seed, cranberries and white chocolate in these seasonally-flavored granola bars! Oh, pumpkin. Is there any form you can take that I won't like (except Dunkin' Donuts Pumpkin Creme Brulee Latte — that is WAY too sweet for me)? In addition, pumpkin season also means fall, …
To help raise money for Cookies for Kids Cancer, I've partnered with OXO and made these pumpkin cut-out cookies, iced in cinnamon cream cheese frosting! This year marks the fourth year that OXO has partnered with Cookies for Kids Cancer, a 501(c)3 non-profit that raises funds for research into new treatments for pediatric cancer. Cookies …
Kick off the autumn season with warm homemade pumpkin bagels, slathered in cinnamon cream cheese or maple butter!

When you think of food at Christmas, what comes to mind? Turkey? Something peppermint-flavored? Egg nog? Me, I think of cookies. All different kinds of cookies. So, from now until Christmas Eve, I'll be posting nothing but cookie recipes! These are a different take on traditional oatmeal cookies, with the addition of pumpkin and extra …
I have a few addictions: chocolate; coffee; shoes; and cookbooks. Considering the number I have, I really should cook from them more often. I have cooking cookbooks and baking cookbooks, and two cookbooks with nothing but chocolate recipes. I have a cookie cookbook and several bread cookbooks. I recently received another as part of my …
Today's guest poster is Susan from Girl in the Little Red Kitchen. I originally "met" Susan almost two years ago through the Food Bloggers Network Facebook group, and we also both participate in the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap. I'm constantly drooling over her photos, and I've had my eye on her Strawberry Framboise Sorbet …
Chocolate pumpkin porter cupcakes have a full 12 ounces of pumpkin porter beer! They're complemented by cinnamon-spiced buttercream. Today's guest post is by Kim, the author behind Feed Me Seymour. I "met" Kim through a cooking-focused forum, and found out she's formerly from the Philadelphia area. I love her Harry Potter Butterbeer cupcakes, and also made …
The first guest post for American Beer Week is fellow Philadelphian, Aly from Cooking in Stilettos. If that blog name sounds familiar, she was also a part of the recent Pepper Party. I originally found her blog through The Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap, and I love her style of writing and her recipes. If …
American Beer Day is Sunday, October 27th, celebrating all kinds of American-brewed beer. To celebrate, some fellow bloggers and I are cooking and baking with beer all this week! Five days of recipes that include beer. I'm kicking things off with a cookie recipe that includes pumpkin beer. It's a soft cookie, much like a …
So, did you enjoy the Pepper Party? I enjoyed finding so many new ways to cook with bell peppers! Our family also enjoyed an extended Columbus Day weekend. I had an "early out" from work on Friday (I got out at 2 p.m. instead of 5 p.m.), and had Monday off. We visited with family …
Pumpkin spice Rice Krispie Treats take on seasonal flavor with pumpkin puree, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. Then they're finished with a drizzle of white chocolate. Hello, Redhead Baker readers! I'm so sorry that the site was down all last week. I underestimated the difficulty of switching hosting sites. Oops... Anyway, can you believe that tomorrow is …
I'm a bad blogger. I haven't been posting as much as usual, and I promise, I have a good reason. I hope to be able to tell you next week. I'm also a bad blogger, because the latest recipe swap (hosted by A Taste of Home Cooking) due date totally snuck up on me, mostly …
Give your wallet a break and make your own pumpkin spice latte at home with this DIY pumpkin spice syrup! Labor Day is over. There is not a 90-degree high temperature in the forecast all this week. While autumn may not officially start until Sunday, let's be real: it's fall. I'm not sad about it. …
I hope you're not sick of pumpkin. Personally, pumpkin is a year-round ingredient for me, but I know that not all agree with me. Can we at least compromise that it's an all-winter ingredient? Pumpkin is comfort food to me, as is macaroni and cheese. When I saw that The Cookaholic Wife had made a …
I really try to make an effort to meal-plan a week in advance, and to remember to defrost whatever protein is needed for dinner that night. But sometimes, such as when Daylight Savings Time ends and a certain 11-month-old baby wakes up at 3:30 a.m., things slip my mind (can't imagine why). And so I'm …
Creamy pumpkin soup with hints of cinnamon and ginger is my favorite comfort food on a chilly night. Though fall officially began a little over 3 weeks ago, we've only recently had "real" fall weather: cooler temps, lower humidity. Jeans-and-hoodie weather. Hearty, delicious soup weather. I only recently have come to love soup. Growing up, …
"Tuesdays with Dorie" is both a blog and a link-up, started in 2009 by a blogger named Laurie, who decided to try to make every recipe in Dorie Greenspan's "Baking: From My Home to Yours." She asked if anyone wanted to bake along with her, got a huge response, and the link-up was born. The …
If I asked you, "What is the most dangerous piece of kitchen equipment?", what would be your response? Knives? A mandoline? A kitchen torch? You'd be wrong. It's a doughnut pan. Doughnuts are one of my weaknesses. I could eat a healthy, filling breakfast, but if I drive by a doughnut shop 10 minutes later, …
The weather has cooled down a little here in Philadelphia. We've had several days in a row of mid- to high-70-degree temperatures. I love it! I thought the best way to welcome the cooler temperatures was with a savory pumpkin dish. Now, The Mister isn't as pumpkin-crazy as I am, so I chose this dish …
In various online polls, I've seen the question "What is your favorite season?" It's a question I can't answer. I love them all, which is why I'm glad to live in an area that (usually) has four distinct seasons. I love sitting in warm, fuzzy pajamas, watching the snow fall while sipping hot chocolate in …
The theme of this round of swaps was Thanksgiving desserts. I always supply holiday desserts for my family, and this year, my mother requested an apple pie and a cheesecake. I intended to make my swap recipe, this No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake from The Wanna Be Cook to serve for dessert. The little "bun in the oven," …
If your family is up for experimenting with new dishes on Thanksgiving (unlike mine), this pumpkin sage polenta would make a seasonal substitution for traditional mashed potatoes. I've been going back through my archives of recipes I made in my pre-blogging days. That's the reason there is no photo to accompany this recipe. Pumpkin Sage …
Part of the reason I love participating in recipe swaps is that I am forced (for lack of a better word) to try recipes that I probably wouldn't have chosen myself. Admittedly, I wasn't quite looking forward to this one. Last fall, I had a bagel with pumpkin cream cheese, and it was really disgusting. …
Sometimes you want pumpkin bread with a cream cheese swirl, and sometimes, you just want straight pumpkin bread. I looked at many recipes before deciding on the one from the blog So Tasty, So Yummy. Her bread seemed to have all the qualities I wanted: moist, sweet, and spicy. I was not disappointed! She didn't specify …
I got this recipe from a fellow member of a pet-related message board on which I post. This is so simple to make and so amazingly tasty. The batch below will yield about four cups of pumpkin butter. It should be stored refrigerated for up to 6 weeks, but it can also be frozen for …
I thought I had blogged about this already, but apparently I haven't. I linked to the original recipe in my first Thanksgiving menu post back in '09, but I have since made some additions to the soup which make it even better! With the heavy cream, it's not exactly healthy, but one reviewer of the …
Whenever one of my many cooking magazine subscriptions arrives in the mail, I try to take the time to read it then, partly because the recipes are seasonal, and partly because if I don't, they pile up quickly. I often print out the recipes that interest me, as I'm never able to remember which magazine …
What's that, you say? EW?! Well guess what, they're not for you. See the note below to make this recipe wheat-free.
