Cozy Pumpkin Recipes to Fall in Love With

Hi Reader,

It’s pumpkin season, and I’m here for it! Every year around this time, my kitchen turns into a cozy little haven filled with cinnamon, nutmeg, and all things pumpkin. Between getting the kids ready for school and juggling weeknight dinners, there’s just something about a warm pumpkin breakfast or a sweet treat that feels like a hug.

I love this season because these recipes are the perfect mix of cozy and easy. Whether it’s a quick breakfast on a chilly morning or a wholesome dessert to enjoy after dinner, these pumpkin-filled favorites bring all the comfort of fall, without adding extra work to your day.

Wholesome Pumpkin Breakfasts

Healthy Pumpkin Waffles with 15 grams of protein, hidden fiber, and so much pumpkin spice goodness! They’re crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy in the center, and the BEST cozy high-protein breakfast for fall.

These pancakes have 17 grams of protein, are ready to cook in just 10 minutes, and are full of cozy fall flavors! Made with pumpkin puree, cottage cheese, and plenty of pumpkin spice, you will not believe how light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet these easy, healthy pancakes are.

I’ve been making these Pumpkin Pie Overnight Oats for YEARS and they’re still one of my favorite healthy breakfast recipes! These oats come together in just 5 minutes, refrigerate overnight (or up to 3-5 days), and they’re ready to go in the morning.

With 23 grams of protein and 13 grams of fiber per serving, it’s super filling, and it tastes just like pumpkin pie. The fluffy Greek yogurt white chocolate topping takes it to another level and I love that I can prep a big batch of this recipe at the beginning week for healthy breakfasts all week long.

Delicious Pumpkin Treats

Sweet, warm, chewy, and delicious! These Gluten-Free Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies are so perfect for fall. Made with all-purpose gluten-free flour and real pumpkin, every bite of these one-bowl cookies is full of cozy fall, pumpkin-chocolate flavor and the best soft texture!

These are made with cottage cheese and other healthier ingredients, they come together quickly in a blender and bake in just 15 minutes. Rolled in a sweet cinnamon sugar mixture for the best fall treat! My kids absolutely love making these with me and they’re one of my favorite fall traditions every year.

The BEST Healthy Pumpkin Bread recipe made with real pumpkin, bananas, whole wheat flour, and pumpkin spice! Sweetened with honey, maple syrup, and a little bit of brown sugar, this dairy-free pumpkin bread is SO delicious.

I am completely obsessed with these and even my kids love them. They’re light, fluffy, and every bite is SO good! These muffins can be made two different ways, but I love making the pumpkin version this time of the year. They make a great little protein snack!
