I LOVE pumpkin everything so I complied a list of my favorite inexpensive pumpkin recipes. There’s a little something here for everyone. There’s some low fat recipes, clean eating recipes, paleo recipes, and regular recipes. There’s some simple recipes and some that require more skill to make. There are pumpkin drinks, snacks, desserts and savory recipe ideas. Plus, most of these pumpkin recipes can be easily adapted to suit your dietary needs. For example, you can sub sugar for stevia and cow’s milk for coconut or almond milk, or a regular pie crusts for gluten free.
A majority of these pumpkin recipes are under 5 ingredients. I made a few exceptions for some really delicious 6 ingredient recipes though. Most of these ingredients are things you already have in your pantry or fridge like milk, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla extract, vegetable oil, butter, baking soda, etc. The main things you have to buy are pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice (easier & cheaper than buying separate spices), and cream cheese or whipped topping.
