It’s that time of year again…Pinterest is being invaded by everything PUMPKIN FLAVORED! But you know what they say, right?
“If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em!”
So this year, we put together a little food blogger community project called The Pinterest Pumpkin Project! We asked dozens of food bloggers to share their FAVORITE pumpkin recipes, and we’ve collected them all in this post so you can check them out, pin them to share, and follow your favorite bloggers on Pinterest!
Without further ado, here are awesome pumpkin recipes from some of the best food bloggers out there…and don’t worry: if we missed your favorite, simply add yours using the link-up below!
