I have to get something off my chest: Starbucks PSL is not my favorite drink. It’s ok…and I’ll maybe drink one or two during the season, but I MUCH, MUCH prefer the cold brew with pumpkin cream. Sorry, PSL.
I also am not crazy about pumpkin pie. Or any pie for that matter-I’m a cake girl. In fact, the only time I eat pumpkin pie is at Thanksgiving.
So what pumpkin foods do I love? Well, I do love the pumpkin pancake mix and pumpkin bread mix from Trader Joe’s.
I also love Libby’s pumpkin roll.
And this pumpkin bar dessert is another favorite.
Yellow cake mix / 3 eggs / 5 oz evaporated milk / 1/2 c butter / 1 can pumpkin pie mix / 1/2 c sugar / 1/4 c flour / 3 tsp cinnamon
In a large bowl, combine cake mix, 1 egg, and butter. Reserve 2/3 c for topping, and spread the rest into a greased 9×13 dish. Using a mixer, combine pumpkin pie mix, remaining eggs, and milk. Pour over crust. Add sugar, flour, and cinnamon to reserved cake mixture and combine until crumbly. Spread over pie filling. Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes.
And last but not least, pumpkin seeds. I love them sprinkled with a little salt or cinnamon sugar.
What are your favorite pumpkin things? Are you team PSL and pumpkin pie? We can still be friends if you are, I promise.

No PSL, eww! I love a Caffe Latte with vanilla bean powder added from Starbucks! Pumpkin pie is the best, still friends?
