Best pumpkin cakes for autumn

I’m starting my list with delicious, moist, and aromatic pumpkin cakes. These are usually simple cakes, often even prepared without a mixer. Although there are also amazing pumpkin cheesecakes on the blog – I’ll show one of them here, or even pumpkin tiramisu (you can find it using the search icon).

Pumpkin cake with chocolate

This pumpkin cake with chocolate is probably my favorite pumpkin cake. Super simple to make and incredibly tasty thanks to the warming spices. I love it with a cup of warming tea or coffee. You must try it!

Pumpkin-nut cake

This pumpkin cake with peanut butter is my second favorite pumpkin cake. The addition of peanut butter gives the cake an excellent consistency and, for me, a perfect taste. It’s a real treat for peanut butter lovers.

Pumpkin-chocolate bundt cake

This pumpkin-chocolate bundt cake is a very nice and tasty marble bundt cake that combines two types of batter. It will be perfect for a weekend dessert.

Pumpkin-coconut cake

I made this pumpkin-coconut cake with canned coconut milk and without a mixer – just mix the ingredients with a spoon. Before serving, I drizzled the cake with coconut caramel to enhance its flavor.

Pumpkin bundt cake with apples

This is another pumpkin bundt cake in my collection, but this time it’s baked with warming spices, pieces of juicy apple, and drizzled with maple glaze after baking. Delicious!

Pumpkin Bread – Pumpkin Bread

Recipe for Pumpkin Bread, which is American pumpkin bread. This cake is more dense and “substantial” and can be eaten typically as a cake, or with sweet cottage cheese, jam, or preserve – a bit like a sandwich.

Pumpkin yeast cake

This pumpkin yeast cake is made with a chocolate cream filling that is woven through the dough. It’s not very visible in the photos, but it adds a nice sweetness to the pumpkin cake.

Pull-apart pumpkin yeast cake

Pull-apart pumpkin yeast cake is a yeast cake baked with slices of pumpkin dough arranged in a mold and sprinkled with sugar and spices. This is a very nice way to serve yeast cake, which children will especially enjoy.

Marble pumpkin cheesecake

Marble pumpkin cheesecake is one of the three pumpkin cheesecakes currently available on my blog. Here, the cheesecake is not entirely pumpkin-flavored; instead, it has dollops of pumpkin mixture, which makes it look very interesting. I highly recommend it!

Pumpkin-orange cake

This pumpkin cake with a hint of orange is one of my old pumpkin cake recipes. It’s a bit different from the other cakes because it doesn’t use pumpkin puree, as is the case with all the other cakes. Here, raw pumpkin grated on a fine grater is added to the batter.

Recipes for sweet pumpkin desserts

Sweet pumpkin desserts are small pumpkin baked goods – such as cupcakes, muffins, doughnuts, or cookies. Because you can also bake other things with pumpkin – not just large sheet cakes.

Pumpkin muffins

These pumpkin muffins are one of my first pumpkin recipes on the blog! The recipe appeared in September 2012 at the very beginning of my blogging journey. Recently, the muffins also got new photos to further encourage baking them.

Pumpkin muffins with chocolate

In turn, the recipe for pumpkin muffins with chocolate is one of my latest pumpkin recipes. You can prepare these muffins without a mixer and in just a few minutes (if you have pumpkin puree ready beforehand). Add your favorite chocolate to them – milk or dark.

Baked pumpkin doughnuts

My family loves doughnuts, and I like to prepare baked doughnuts because they have a bit fewer calories than fried ones. After baking, I drizzled my baked pumpkin doughnuts with salted caramel flavored glaze. Delicious!

Pumpkin cookies with chocolate

You can make these simple pumpkin cookies with chocolate without rolling out or cutting with molds. The dough can be mixed with a mixer, chilled, and then rolled into balls in your hands.

Shortbread pumpkin cookies

If you like crumbly and crispy cookies, you can make shortbread pumpkin cookies sprinkled with sugar. Such cookies will especially appeal to children, but adults will also gladly eat them with coffee.
