8 Ways to Enjoy Pumpkin Spice as Fall Arrives
E! Online

While many people think enjoying the flavor of pumpkin spice as soon as the fall months roll around can be predictable, and dare I say it #basic, I feel that it would be silly not to break out the sugar and spice as soon as possible. Nothing helps you prepare for the crisp autumn days ahead like a warm pumpkin-spiced treat. So get your Instagram ready and make note of the pumpkin foods below because fall has arrived.

1. Pumpkin Bread

A classic staple when the cooler months come around, pumpkin bread is a crowd favorite. Whip it up before your next brunch to wow your friends or just to make your kitchen smell like fall.

2. Pumpkin Muffins

There’s nothing better than getting to experience the delicious flavor of pumpkin spice as soon as you wake up. A quick batch of pumpkin muffins may just make your mornings a little more enjoyable.

3. Pumpkin Ice Cream

Do you find yourself wanting a pumpkin spice treat while the days are still warm? Try pumpkin spice ice cream. All your favorite parts of the fall flavor in the perfect, frozen treat.

4. Pumpkin Spice Tea

Not much of a coffee fan? Try pumpkin spice tea, the less buzzed about cousin to the pumpkin spice latte. A warm cup of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and pumpkin is really all you need on a chilly fall afternoon.

5. Pumpkin Soup

This may not be a sweet treat, but pumpkin soup is still a fall classic. Enjoy this soup made with pumpkin and your favorite fall spices for a lunch or dinner treat that will keep you warm and toasty all day long.

6. Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

Had your fill of pumpkin muffins? Try pumpkin spice pancakes. Make a few for yourself or whip up a batch for a crowd and you are sure to have a new breakfast favorite.

7. Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

Don’t let any of the pumpkin go to waste by roasting up some sweet or savory pumpkin seeds. Add your favorite fall spices to the cleaned seeds and toast them in the oven. Before you know it, you will have a healthy, seasonally appropriate alternative to the chips in your pantry.

8. And of course, Pumpkin Spice Lattes

You didn’t think I could have a list of pumpkin spice favorites and not include the infamous pumpkin spice latte did you? Who cares if people scoff at the excitement of a pumpkin spice latte on a cold autumn morning? Run to your nearest Starbucks and order the quintessential drink of the fall season. Treat yo’self.


As the beloved season of fall sets in around us, try these pumpkin spice favorites. With the flavors of pumpkin and cinnamon wafting about, you may even be excited to welcome the chill in the air.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
