Both of your gorgeous recipes look yummy. I love pumpkin baked in a delicious bread, pie, or cake. I’m not much of a baker, but as long as there’s nothing wrong with my eyes, I’m going to eat [as-if] to my heart’s content. Thanks for the visuals!!!
I relate to the first sentence of this article on a spiritual level
LONG LIVE THE PUMPKIN FOODS
Sounds very good! I will have to try and make this sometime this fall!
