Day 4 - Make Pumpkin Coffee Creamer

So even though it most definitely doesn't feel like fall here, I am going to continue my Pumpkin/Apple October.  Today I made a pumpkin spice coffee creamer.  I found this recipe on Pinterest also.  To get the recipe, click here.  It was good but what I didn't like was that the spices settled to the bottom of your cup making the last sip pretty gross.  It was super easy to make and took less than 5 minutes.  Probably way better for you than the bought creamers; however, I am not sure I will make it again.  The bought creamers definitely taste better.


Day 3 - Make Applesauce

Today I helped my best friend make applesauce for her freezer.  I had previously made some for myself.  We used Cortland apples and for a few of the batches we added cranberries.

Day 2 - Pumpkin Chocolate Muffins

This morning  I whipped up a batch of Pumpkin Chocolate muffins.  They are super easy because they only have 3 ingredients:  box of devils food cake mix, 15 ounce can of pumpkin and a bag of chocolate chips. The best part about these muffins are they really aren't that bad for you!  My muffins don't look as pretty as they should because I was kinda lazy about putting the batter into the muffin tin.  That's what happens when I try to bake at 7:30 in the morning.

Day 1 - Pumpkin Oatmeal Chip Cookies

It seems that the only way I post on here is if I make myself do something every day.  Since fall is my absolute favorite time of year, I decided I would attempt to create something apple or pumpkin each day for the month of October.  Today I made Pumpkin Oatmeal Chip cookies from a recipe I found on Pinterest.  You can find that recipe by clicking here.  Of course, I had to taste one and they are pretty good with only a hint of pumpkin.
