I have a love-hate relationship with pumpkin spice. I can't stand pumpkin spice lattes or coffee creamers. Pumpkin-scented candles are not my jam. It's just not my thing.
But give me pumpkin baked goods any day.
Enjoying unique pumpkin recipes for sweets is one of my favorite ways to make every day feel a little bit more like October — and like Halloween. So as our autumn days are quickly fading away, I've rounded up a few of my favorite pumpkin recipes I've found on Pinterest to share with you.
And, in my opinion, they're even better than a hot pumpkin spice latte.
