7 best pumpkin baking recipes, from muffins to pies and more

From the ultimate pumpkin pie to a pumpkin cheesecake, we're making the most of the season.

Pumpkin is the season’s siren call to cozy sweaters, cascading foliage and the ubiquitous PSL. Capable of starring in so much more than just pies, this versatile winter squash deserves a spot in your pastas, stews, salads and more – and luckily for you, we’ve got stellar recipes for each. (Tip: Start with our homemade Pumpkin Pie Spice Mix, which serves as the starting point for our bakes.)

Chef Christa Bruneau-Guenther calls these her muffin “cupcakes.” Whole wheat flour and wheat bran flakes add extra heft to this pumpkin muffin recipe, while yogurt and freshly cooked pumpkin puree keep the muffins moist. But it is the cream cheese frosting (and some sprinkles) that make these muffins kid-friendly.
