This simple, thick and ridiculously creamy pumpkin pasta sauce is a deliciously comforting Fall recipe. This is the most straightforward pumpkin pasta sauce recipe that you will ever make.

Then we add mascarpone cheese, pumpkin puree, and top with crispy Oyster mushrooms or crumble pancetta, and at the end, season with smoked paprika sea salt. This is a perfect quick Fall weeknight dinner.

Roasted Butternut Squash Soup with Feta Honey Toast

Okay, so technically not pumpkin, but it's in the same family. This homemade roasted butternut squash soup is the best Fall or Winter soup that is packed with flavors. You get sweet notes from the roasted vegetables and the honey, and heat from the smoked chili flakes.

The texture of this soup is smooth and creamy. It’s comforting soup that’s vegetarian and dairy-free.

Croque Monsieur with Pumpkin Honey Mustard

This traditional French Croque Monsieur sandwich had a transformation by using flaky puff pastry filled with creamy Béchamel, which balances the saltiness of the air cured Italian prosciutto, and the creaminess of the Gruyere cheese. We enhanced this recipe with our Honey Pumpkin Mustard. That adds the perfect sweetness and tanginess, and makes it one of our favorites for our very favorite season: Pumpkin Season.

    These look great! I bake with pumpkin all fall long, but don't do much with it in the savory department. I want to fix that, starting with that delicious-looking Monte Cristo!
