I’m just calling it, IT IS FALL here in Miami! While it’s still as hot as the dickens and our palm trees aren’t experiencing any changing of color…Pumpkin spice coffees are being served in the coffee houses, so that must mean it’s fall, right?
I must admit, I didn’t grow up liking pumpkin very much. My family wasn’t really into cooking with pumpkin, so the only exposure I had was to store-bought pumpkin pies on Thanksgiving. The only way I found them tolerable was by piling on the whipped cream! As I began experimenting with different recipes as an adult, I found that I actually REALLY like pumpkin. I’ve used it in everything from pumpkin waffles to chocolate chip pumpkin blondie bars to pumpkin and lamb chili!
My latest favorite pumpkin recipe? Pumpkin Pie Yogurt!
This recipe is so decadent that you will want to eat it for dessert, but no worries, it is perfectly acceptable as a breakfast food!
It is yogurt, after all!

October 12, 2014 at 5:00 pmI’m going to direct people to this post when they ask about Pumpkin Yogurt! I have a yogurt pumpkin pie that I make that I’ve used a store bought pumpkin pie yogurt for, but some people haven’t been able to find it in the stores – now they can still make my pie with your yogurt!! 🙂

October 20, 2014 at 10:45 pmJenn, I saw your link on Inspire Me Monday and had to check it out since my husband and I love pumpkin. I’m going to try this recipe with sugar-free vanilla yogurt and maple syrup, which should work just fine. Thanks for sharing!
