Chocolate & Coconut Pumpkin Brownies
It’s been a while since I shared a brownie recipe hasn’t it? Well, it’s time to change that for sure. I was scrolling through some of my really old recipes the other day and realizing that I’ve never made a completely vegan brownie. I’ve tried tons of variations but I don’t think I’ve ever taken on the challenge of creating a good one before. For these I used some pumpkin for texture and to help keep them on the healthier side of things. I know, you’re probably like “How could you defile a perfectly good browine with veggies!” :O Honestly though, these might surprise you by how good they are without a ton…

Pumpkin Spice Latte Baked Oatmeal
Hello again, my lovely friends! Wow, October is flashing by and I’ve yet to make enough pumpkin recipes to meet what I’d consider to be a bare minimum as a food blogger. My brother-in-law is so humored by the fact that everything turns pumpkin in September that he took pictures of all the pumpkin products he found on his last grocery shopping trip with my sister. He found SO many too so it’s been a family joke recently how many things marketers convert to pumpkin. Hey, I’m loving it with no complaints. (By the way, has anyone found seasonal flavors of peanut butter around North Idaho????) I guess it’s not that awesome if…

Golden Vanilla Cake + Chocolate Buttercream Frosting (Vegan)
Firstly, someone drank my entire cup of coffee, like what???? Secondly, please do not ask me who’s birthday it is/was. Seriously, you’d think my family would have figured out by now that I sometimes get the random urge to make an unnecessarily large, lovely, and delicious cake for absolutely no good reason at all. Yes, well apparently they haven’t because I think I got asked why I was making this cake about two dozen times by various people the day that I was working on it. So I actually did have a good reason to make it though, I felt it was a huge gap missing from my recipe list. I realized the other day that…

Pumpkin Pie French Toast & Kahlúa Vanilla Syrup (Vegan+GF)
Hey again, how were your weekends guys? Mine was pretty busy, but in a good way. Lots of cooking, obviously, because I don’t know what to do with myself otherwise. I also spent some time over this weekend doing some miscellaneous Spring cleaning things like organizing my spice cabinet. I’ve told you how they sell the spices here in these individual little pouches that are only enough to make you mad, right? It really kind of makes me crazy until I have the chance to organize like I just did. Then there was that other thing ………you know, what I mentioned Friday about my first (eh hem…….) date? Yeah, so you can probably imagine…

Madam Pomfrey’s Pumpkin Juice Smoothie (Vegan+GF)
Okay guys, nerd alert again. Sorry, I just really wanted to slip in one more recipe themed after Harry Potter before October was gone. I also thought this would be a fun and sneaky way to get some nutrition into the kids in between all of the sugary stuff I’ve been cranking out for the blog. It’s so much easier to get them to try something if it’s from a movie or book that they love. What was awesome is that they loved this. I mean, I can always count on Brock to get excited over a smoothie but this one was even packed with some real life vegetables and he still downed…

I absolutely love Fall and all that comes with it. Especially the holidays! This post is all about vegan pumpkin spice doughnuts It’s September! Fall Baking Starts Now! It seems like I wait all year long for the holiday season. Every year when I was little I would start to get so excited right around September.
