Pumpkin-Inspired Breakfast Recipes

It's that time of the year when pumpkin-flavored everything invades our menus! Is that such a bad thing though? I don't think so either. I've listed some of my favorite pumpkin-inspired breakfasts that are tried and true.

Pumpkin French Toast - This first pumpkin recipe comes from Just So Tasty. This breakfast dish is described as "extra fluffy, has perfectly golden edges, warm spices, a hint of brown sugar, and tons of pumpkin." The recipe's author also suggests topping it with whipped cream and maple syrup. Good news too - the ingredient list is under 10 things!

Pumpkin Pancakes - These light and fluffy pumpkin pancakes full of spices come from The Girl Who Ate Everything. They can also be made ahead of time and kept in the fridge for about a week!

Pumpkin Donut Holes - The author of Live Well Bake Often shared her recipe for these pumpkin donut holes and they are so soft and full of pumpkin flavor. They're pretty simple to make as they are actually baked in a mini muffin pan.

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins - These muffins are ready in just 30 minutes and come from Foodie and Wine. They also pair well with a chai tea latte! In addition, you can freeze the muffins and the taste might actually be better when you do.

Pumpkin Overnight Oats - Not only are these overnight oats yummy, but they're healthy as well! You can top this thick and creamy breakfast treat with almost anything. The author of the recipe from Ambitious Kitchen, describes them as tasty "just like a slice of heavenly creamy pumpkin pie!"
