We have saved the BEST Pumpkin Recipe for last. 
It is a Cottonwood House Family Favorite! 

King Arthur Flour Pumpkin Donuts! 

Pumpkin doughnuts: Mix the ingredients

Place the following in a mixing bowl:
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 1/2 cups pumpkin purée (canned pumpkin)
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, or 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon plus a heaping 1/4 teaspoon each ground nutmeg and ground ginger
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

Beat everything together until smooth.
Add 1 3/4 cups + 2 tablespoons (8 ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour, stirring just until smooth.
BTW, this is a great place to try King Arthur Unbleached Self-Rising Flour. Reduce the salt to 1/2 teaspoon; omit the baking powder, and substitute 2 cups (8 ounces) self-rising flour for the all-purpose flour.

Spoon the batter into the pans

As I mentioned earlier, if you don’t have doughnut pans, you can bake these in a couple of standard muffin tins; they just won’t be doughnuts.
Fill the wells of the doughnut pans about 3/4 full, using a scant 1/4 cup of batter in each well; a tablespoon cookie scoop helps with this task.
If you’re making muffins, fill each well about 3/4 full; the recipe makes 15, so you’ll need to bake in two batches (unless you have two muffin pans).

Bake the doughnuts

Bake the doughnuts for 15 to 18 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of one comes out clean. If you’re using self-rising flour, bake for the longer amount of time.
If you’re making muffins, they’ll need to bake for 23 to 25 minutes.
Remove the doughnuts from the oven, and after about 5 minutes, loosen their edges, and transfer them to a rack to cool.

Shake the warm doughnuts in cinnamon-sugar

While the doughnuts are still warm (but no longer fragile), gently shake them in a bag with cinnamon-sugar. Or better yet, pumpkin-spice sugar, made by combining the aforementioned pumpkin pie spice (or substitute) with granulated or extra-fine sugar.
Serve immediately. 
ENJOY!

Our Recipe Today is Delicious...and Healthy! 

Flourless Pumpkin Blender Muffins
Recipe by: Chocolate Covered Katie

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 1/2 cups white beans (15-oz can)
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 tbsp sugar OR pinch stevia (or use 2 1/2 tbsp additional maple syrup and decrease pumpkin by 2 1/2 tbsp)
  • 1/2 cup quick oats
  • 1/4 cup almond butter 
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice or additional cinnamon
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp baking soda

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350, and grease a muffin tin or line with cupcake liners. Drain the beans, rinse very well, and pat dry. This is important, as it gets rid of any bean taste. Combine all ingredients in a high speed blender or food processor until completely smooth. (If you’re using a blender without a tamper, stop occasionally to stir ingredients with a spoon so they blend evenly.) Spoon the batter into the liners, smooth the tops, and bake 20 minutes. They will look underdone – let sit 20 minutes and they will firm up. They also firm up even more overnight. However, these are supposed to be fudgy and almost pumpkin-pie-like, not fluffy and flour-y like your usual muffins.
Enjoy!

Bakery Style Soft-Baked Pumpkin Cookies
Recipe from: Chelsea's Messy Apron


Ingredients
  • Parchment paper 
Cookies
  • 2 and 1/2 cups all-purpose white flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated white sugar
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) unsatled butter softened, do NOT melt
  • 1 CUP (not an entire can!) canned pumpkin, do not use pumpkin pie filling; do not use an entire can
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 4 ounces full-fat cream cheese (the block cream cheese, not spreadable), softened NOT melted
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, NOT melted
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: pumpkin pie spice

Instructions
  1. Prepare a large sheet pan by lining with parchment paper or a silpat liner (very important to avoid burned bottoms on these cookies). Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, add flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt; Whisk to combine and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar. Add 1 CUP pumpkin, the egg, and vanilla. Beat until the mixture is creamy. Add in the dry ingredients and mix until JUST combined. Avoid over-mixing as it will create denser cookies. 
  3. Place heaping tablespoons of the batter on the baking sheet (I only bake 6 at a time) and flatten the balls of dough slightly. (The batter is wetter than normal cookie dough so don't be alarmed that you can't roll out balls of dough).
  4. Bake for 9-14 minutes, watching carefully, to avoid over-baking. We like these slightly under-baked and soft, but the tops shouldn't be shiny at all. Remove and allow to continue "baking" for another 2 minutes on the sheet pan before removing to a wire cooling rack to cool.
  5. Meanwhile, make the frosting. In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the softened (not melted, should be at room temperature)  cream cheese and butter until creamy (about 2 minutes) at medium-high speed. Add the powdered sugar, salt, and vanilla. Beat until everything is combined and the frosting is soft and creamy. Avoid over-beating the mixture or you'll get whipped frosting.
  6. Generously frost the completely cooled cookies and if desired, sprinkle the tops of the cookies with a little extra pumpkin pie spice.
  7. Do not store the cookies in tupperware. Store on plates loosely covered with foil in the fridge. Best eaten within 2-3 days. Cookies can be frozen SEPARATELY from the frosting (do not freeze frosting) for up to 3 months.

ENJOY!
