Introduction

Pumpkin spice is one of the most popular fall flavors. After a while, it might get old to hear about a bunch of pumpkin spice foods. Nevertheless, autumn screams pumpkin spice, so it’s paramount to talk about recipes you can make to satisfy a pumpkin spice craving.

Try these vegan pumpkin spice recipes today, including but not limited to the following.

Pumpkin Spice Waffles
Pumpkin Spice Syrup
Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake
Pumpkin Spice Babka Buns
Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate

Note that pumpkin spice, pumpkin pie (flavor in general, not dessert), and pumpkin pie spice are the same. I will consistently use the term “pumpkin spice,” even though some recipe authors use other words to say the same flavor on their websites.

1. Pumpkin Spice Waffles

Are you tired of buttermilk waffles? Then make these pumpkin spice waffles with the help of Vegetarian Gastronomy.

Here are some vegan breakfast ideas.

2. Pumpkin Spice Syrup

If you are a pumpkin spice addict, this recipe is for you. Create some pumpkin spice syrup from Crowded Kitchen. That way, you can have pumpkin spice on as many foods as you want.

3. Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake

I’ve saved a chocolate bundt recipe from Nora Cooks in my to-make list. The problem is I have trouble making bigger recipes with living by myself, so I’ll save that recipe for the holidays.

If you are interested in making bundt cakes, try this pumpkin spice bundt cake recipe from The Baking Fairy. Bake more vegan cakes while you’re at it.

4. Pumpkin Spice Babka Buns

Babka is a Jewish braided bread. If you’re open to trying it, create these pumpkin spice babka buns from Nourishing Amy.

5. Pumpkin Spice Hot Chocolate

I recently had my first cup of hot chocolate this fall, which was delicious. If you prefer something with pumpkin spice, have some pumpkin spice hot chocolate from Two Market Girls.

Here are additional vegan hot cocoa recipes.

6. Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Fudge

My grandpa used to make fudge for the holidays and just because. Even though it was too rich for me, many family members enjoyed it.

Cupcakes are fantastic desserts for a birthday party or a holiday get-together. Here are some pumpkin spice latte cupcakes, a recipe by Choosing Chia.

8. Pumpkin Spice Chocolate Chip Cookies

This cookie recipe is so cute because it produces a lot of miniature cookies instead of several ordinary cookies. Make these mini pumpkin spice cookies with the help of Six Vegan Sisters.

If that sounds good, bake these vegan cookie recipes.

9. Pumpkin Spiced Pumpkin Seeds

Some of my siblings like to roast pumpkin seeds in the oven after pumpkin carving. I never make them because I am confident I won’t eat them.

If you want to try it, have these pumpkin spiced pumpkin seeds from Make It Dairy Free.

10. Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

The perfect weekend brunch is a stack of homemade pancakes. For a fall twist, make pumpkin spice pancakes with the help of Zucker&Jagdwurst.

11. Pumpkin Spice Latte Ice Cream

I felt terrible that Brandi from The Vegan 8 had to create a new Instagram account. Please follow her new account and try some of her fall recipes, like her oldie but goodie recipe for pumpkin spice latte ice cream.

12. Homemade Pumpkin Spice

If you don’t have a pumpkin spice blend at your local grocery store, it’s easy to make your own. Here’s a pumpkin spice recipe from Loving It Vegan.

13. Pumpkin Spice Bread

I would love to bake and freeze bread for breakfast if I had a chest freezer. Fresh bread is delicious.

14. Pumpkin Spice Truffles

Years ago, my mom and some of my siblings spent days making cake balls for the holiday season and then stored the extras in the three-season room because that room was nice and cold.

Here is a pumpkin spice truffle recipe from ShortGirlTallOrder.

15. Pumpkin Spice Granola

I’m still salty because of my negative experience with Nature’s Path’s customer service.

Long story short, I requested them to make their Love Crunch granola bars vegan because the granola flavor is vegan. Then, they explained different types of vegetarianism and veganism to me instead of considering that suggestion.

I’m done with buying granola from the store. I can make my own, like this pumpkin spice granola by From My Bowl.

16. Pumpkin Spice Flan

Flan seems super fancy. That’s probably because it reminds me of jello but is classy enough to be served at a sit-down restaurant.

If you want to have flan with an autumn vibe, try this pumpkin spice flan from Veggiekins.

17. Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter

When I was in elementary school, I always had peanut butter toast for breakfast. Even though I don’t like peanut butter anymore, it’s important to remember there are more peanut butter flavors besides crunchy and creamy.

Have some pumpkin spice peanut butter from Purely Kaylie.

18. Pumpkin Spice Blondies

If brownies are too chocolaty for you, I recommend having blondies instead. Try these pumpkin spice blondies from The Healthy Maven.

19. Pumpkin Spice Porridge

When I was in 6th grade, my brother and some of his classmates participated in a school assembly version of Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader? The teacher who advanced the most got stumped by a question about Goldilocks and the Three Bears. That fairytale was the only reference to porridge I had growing up, even though it was the same as oatmeal.

Make this pumpkin spice porridge recipe from Romy London.

20. Pumpkin Spice Jars

If you’re into trifle cake, this recipe is for you. Create these pumpkin spice jars from Karissa’s Vegan Kitchen.

21. Pumpkin Spice Scones

Scones are popular baked goods that go well with tea. Try some pumpkin spice scones from It’s All Good Vegan.

22. Pumpkin Spice Muffins

The host at my Bible study group is great at accommodating me with different flavors of vegan muffins, from apple to ginger pear.

Have these pumpkin spice muffins from plant.well.

23. Pumpkin Spice Mocktail

I don’t drink alcohol, so I try to find some tremendous non-alcoholic beverages at the store to spice up my meals at home. If you’re looking for a fall mocktail, make pumpkin spice mocktails with the help of Plantifully Based.

24. Pumpkin Spice Overnight Oats

If you want a simple breakfast, I suggest creating overnight oats. All you have to do is mix the ingredients, put the oats into Mason jars, and refrigerate them overnight.

Here are some pumpkin spice overnight oats from ShortGirlTallOrder.

25. Pumpkin Spice Donuts

I got a donut pan last year because I craved some homemade apple cider donuts. Unfortunately, I haven’t used the pan yet.

If you’re up for it, try these pumpkin spice donuts from Choosing Chia.

26. Pumpkin Spice Hummus

Carrot and celery sticks are so good with hummus. The problem is a lot of the store-bought hummuses taste gross.

I guess I have to improve my hummus techniques with recipes like this pumpkin spice hummus from Food Wine and Love.

27. Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Buns

I’m in the mood for some cinnamon rolls, but cinnamon buns will do. Bake these pumpkin spice cinnamon buns from Zucker&Jagdwurst.

The most stereotypical pumpkin spice food is the classic pumpkin spice latte. Make some pumpkin spice latte with the help of The Vegan 8.

30. Pumpkin Spice Pudding

The last vegan pumpkin spice recipe I have for you is a fall pudding. Here’s pumpkin spice pudding from VegAnnie.

Conclusion

With autumn coming to an end, I wanted to pay tribute to one of the most iconic fall flavors: pumpkin spice, also known as pumpkin pie spice. With its unforgettable aroma, many have a love-hate relationship with it. Even though it can get old after a while, pumpkin spice is the hygge of fall.

If you want to embrace a fall vibe in your cooking, make recipes with maple, apples, pumpkin, and sweet potatoes. If you prefer to move onward to holiday recipes, try food with peppermint, gingerbread, eggnog, and cinnamon.
