Anyone else LOVE everything pumpkin? Here are 10 of my favorite healthy pumpkin recipes to get you in the fall mood.

Happy Fall, friends!

October usually signals the beginning of sweets and treats season. Who doesn’t start to crave cozy, warm pumpkin desserts when the weather gets cooler?

But you don’t have to settle for pumpkin treats loaded with processed grains and sugars. Everything I’m sharing today is gluten free, mostly grain free, and made with all real food ingredients.

10 Healthy Pumpkin Recipes

1. Skillet Pumpkin Cake (gluten free + vegan)

This gluten free and vegan pumpkin cake is so delicious and moist, with the perfect blend of fall spices and topped with an insanely yummy nut crumble.

8. Mini Pumpkin Muffins (gluten and grain free)

These little mini pumpkin muffins taste UH-MAY-ZING.  Every single bite is moist, pumpkin goodness. They’re lightly spiced and sweetened with real maple syrup.  And that sweet pecan crumble.  So good.  The smell coming from the oven is reason enough to make these muffins.
