Quick & Easy Pumpkin Recipes (with Minimal Ingredients)

With only a few ingredients and some store-bought shortcuts, these pumpkin dessert recipes come together in minutes.

1. Pumpkin Dump Cake

In this pumpkin dump cake, I use pumpkin puree, a box of yellow cake mix, and a few other simple ingredients, but the end result is anything but basic. It tastes just like pumpkin pie with way less effort. If you’ve got a super long to-do list for the holidays, this cake is a must.

3. Pumpkin Slab Pie

Using store-bought pie crusts and canned pumpkin puree, this pumpkin slab pie comes together very easily and is ideal when I’m serving a big crowd.

4. Pumpkin Pancakes

Mornings never tasted this good! I think pumpkin pancakes are the perfect way to start the day. Drizzled with maple syrup, they taste simply divine.

5. Whipped Pumpkin Butter

You won’t believe how a simple spread of this pumpkin butter can elevate everything from toast and pancakes to baked goods and even cornbread. It adds a whole new layer of flavor. I like to leave a bowl on the dessert table so everyone can add a dollop to their plate.

No-Bake Pumpkin Recipes

Sometimes, there just isn’t enough oven space to get everything prepared at the same time, so I always have a few no-bake desserts in my back pocket. No compromise on taste, as they are just as easy and delicious.

6. Pumpkin Fluff

Ideal for dipping, or sometimes I’ll serve this pumpkin fluff in a nice tall parfait glass with a dollop of whipped cream for a lovely fall dessert.

7. Pumpkin Lasagna Dessert

I know when you think of lasagna, you probably think layers of sauce and cheese. Well, this pumpkin lasagna is layered with vanilla wafer crumbs, a cream cheese, whipped topping, pumpkin puree, and vanilla pudding for the most decadent lasagna you’ll ever eat. And bonus, there’s no baking! Perfect for the holidays when your oven is maxed out.

8. Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream

9. Layered Pumpkin Cheesecake

When I just can’t decide if I want to make a cheesecake or a pumpkin pie, this pumpkin cheesecake is the perfect solution. It’s got both of my favorite flavors all baked into one delicious dessert. I also like this cheesecake for potlucks, as it is always a big hit.

10. Mini Pumpkin Cheesecakes

I just love making individual-serve desserts. These mini pumpkin cheesecakes are such a dream to make, using my muffin tin, these little cheesecakes deliver both on fall flavors and cheesecake decadence. I like making these when I don’t have time to worry about slicing and serving.

12. Pumpkin Scones

There’s nothing I like better than a warm pumpkin scone and a hot cup of coffee when they’re made right! If all you’ve ever tried is a dry, crumbly tasteless scone from a coffee shop, these will rock your world. And save you money.
