You are either a pumpkin spice person or you are not. I am but there are rules. I will NOT have a pumpkin spiced latte. I WILL have a pumpkin spiced moscow mule. I will NOT have a pumpkin spiced latte. I WILL have a pumpkin spiced ice cream sandwich…maybe only if it is sandwiched between gingersnap cookies?? I will NOT have a pumpkin spiced latte. I WILL have pumpkin spice waffles…obviously covered in a generous amount of warm maple syrup and whipped cream. So you get where I am going here….

Below are some of my favorite pumpkin spiced recipes….not lattes.
