Nothing screams "fall is here" more than the flavor of pumpkin. An August 2025 survey from spice experts McCormick found that pumpkin spice is the top seasonal flavor for consumers—but that's not as impressive as the rest of their findings. Per the survey, 72% of respondents use pumpkin spice at least once a week during the fall, while 25% use it daily.

With that in mind, Stacker is celebrating pumpkin spice season by compiling a list of 50 pumpkin recipes from Allrecipes. Whether it's something sweet, like the perfect pumpkin pie or delicious pumpkin pancakes, or something savory, like creamy pumpkin soup or tangy pasta sauce, our collection includes options for every palate. 

The best part about these recipes? They're totally customizable. Whether you love the taste of the vegetable or prefer just a hint of it in your dish, you can adjust the amount of pumpkin as desired to ensure it hits your taste buds just right. So read on to find your new favorite fall pumpkin treat.
