This week's Recipe Swap theme is pumpkin! I love cooking with pumpkin. :) I have so many favorite pumpkin recipes, but I'll try to be somewhat brief and not mention too many different ones. ;)

The boys and I recently made pumpkin pancakes! These Whole Wheat Pumpkin Pancakes were so tender and moist. We ate most of them hot off the griddle, without syrup. Such a comforting Autumn breakfast on a chilly morning! :)

(Yehoshua [5] and Eliyahu [3])
Pancakes are easy to make and I had two very willing helpers! Yehoshua is quite capable in the kitchen, but Eliyahu on the other hand is just finally outgrowing the "Can't control my wild stirring!!!!!" stage. ;)

These Pumpkin Dinner Rolls are my staple Thanksgiving dinner bread/rolls. :) The pumpkin gives them a beautiful yellow color and when they're hot and fresh, spread with butter, I could forget the turkey and just eat these rolls. :)

Pumpkin Sheet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting is simple, beautiful, and delicious! The sheet cake size (made on a jelly roll pan) makes it easy to serve to guests. :)

Pumpkin Butterscotch Muffins are really sweet, like cupcakes, and another favorite! Last week I was craving these muffins but didn't have butterscotch chips. I made them anyway, poured the batter into cake pans, and frostened with cream cheese frosting. Yum! :)

Pumpkin Cheesecake! Joshua made this and it's a delightful seasonal cheesecake! I love Joshua's awesome cheesecakes. :D

Roasted pumpkin seeds are good for you, and a great way to use something you might otherwise be tossing into the compost! :) These seeds never last long here... I love them!

And last (for now!) is Cream-Filled Pumpkin Cupcakes. I'm not sure how to describe these besides "YUMMY!!!" They're a fun treat. :)
I have more pumpkin stuff to share later this week, including my mom's pumpkin pie recipe! But now, I want to hear about your favorite pumpkin recipes!! :)
