Who’s with me when I say “Bring on the pumpkin!!” I seriously love this time of year when everything has a hint of Fall flavor and scent. Check out this list of easy pumpkin desserts and let me know which ones you like the best!! (affiliate links present)

Pumpkin Dessert Recipes Easy
Let’s start with a peek of our favorite pumpkin pudding cake! It is the most moist piece of YUM you’ll make this season. If you love pumpkin pie it has a similar consistency to that crossed with a butter cake of sorts. This added ingredient in a box makes it more moist.
Another great idea to make super tender is using buttermilk instead of traditional. We do this in our Pumpkin Yeast Bread and what a difference it makes. Braided and beautiful baked in a loaf pan this is another hit that always impresses.
Pumpkin Dessert Recipes with Pumpkin Puree
It is warm and a bit dense like pumpkin pie but thicker like a cake! We made this after enjoying a few Libbys pumpkin muffins. You can use the same puree for both.
- A little goes a long way with this one.
- Pumpkin cakes are good but this one is amazing.
- Serve it with a little scoop of vanilla ice cream on top and OH MY is what everyone will say.
How can you make a pumpkin dessert with cake mix?

What is pumpkin puree good for?
You can literally sprinkle spice cake mix, pumpkin pie spice, a bit of this and a little of that into a baking dish and make something like our pumpkin crazy cake with all the Fall flavors that we just love. And did you know you can use it as an oil substitute in any other recipes you bake???

You too can think outside of the box and substitute a scoop instead of applesauce in a recipe of your choice.
Dairy Free Pumpkin Desserts
As I have told you before, we need this for my husband. Any and all of these can be made DF with almond milk and other alternatives. I did this for example when I made a batch of monkey bread in a smoker the other night! In with the plant based butter and brown sugar I used a scoop to keep it nice and moist (ooey gooey is what you want).
