14 Delicious Ways to Use Your Extra Pumpkins

With these 14 delicious ways to use your extra pumpkins, you won't want to throw out your pumpkins ever again! Do something amazing with them instead!

So now that Thanksgiving is over, we all have these pumpkins left over from decorating for Halloween and Thanksgiving. They’ve been beautiful sitting on our counters and porches for over a month now, but now what do you do with them?

So many people just throw them away. Did you know that we don’t eat the vast majority of the 1.91 billion pounds of pumpkins grown in the United States each year, according to the US Department of Agriculture? Instead we either carve them, decorate them, or place them specifically for decoration, and then let them rot and throw them out.

We are missing out on a great deal of amazing nutrients and vitamins and soaking away things of perfectly good food every year. Pumpkins of any variety have flesh that is high in fiber and beta carotene, and their seeds, delicious when toasted or baked, are rich in potassium and protein. Once roasted, pumpkins can be made into so many wonderful dishes to add immense flavor and nutrition.

Instead of just throwing out your pumpkins this year, let me share with you some of my favorite ways to use fresh pumpkin. Maybe you’ll think twice about tossing them. I can even show you how to simply make them into a puree to freeze for later, or how to can them and use them anytime throughout the year in a variety of yummy dishes.

Pumpkin Butter

When I have made pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie filling, canned pumpkin chunks, and enough pumpkin dishes to last us for the month, I then make yummy pumpkin butter. This can be used on biscuits, toast, or even in dishes like my apple butter pork chops, but with pumpkin butter.

Ingredients

  • fill your largest crockpot to the top with pumpkin flesh (1 or 2 pumpkins)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup raw honey
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons pumpkin spice

Instructions

  1. Roast your pumpkins like I outline in the very last recipe for homemade pumpkin puree, but instead of processing down your roasted pumpkin flesh, pour it all into your crockpot. This may simply take just one huge pumpkin, or maybe a few smaller pumpkins.
  2. Add one cup of water to the bottom so your pumpkin doesn’t burn and cook on high for 4 hours or so.
  3. Using an immersion blender, blend your super soft pumpkin until smooth right in your crockpot.
  4. Add all of your other ingredients and mix.
  5. Cook, with the lid off, for an hour and then it’s ready!
  6. Store in the freezer for as long as you’d like, store in the fridge for no more than 3-5 days, or can it in a pressure canner to store it for longer periods of time.

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls

Hands down, this has to be the absolute best recipe that I make all year long. We are already huge cinnamon roll fans in my house, but add in pumpkin and pumpkin spice throughout the batter and icing, and this is fall heaven in your mouth. I have had specific requests to make this one for guests.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup pureed pumpkin
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Filling:

  • Butter
  • Coconut sugar
  • Cinnamon
  • Pumpkin pie spice

Icing:

  • 8oz cream cheese
  • 2/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F and grease a large 9×13 inch baking dish with a little coconut oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine your flour, sugar baking soda, baking powder, salt and pumpkin spice. Stir everything together well.
  3. Then add in your wet ingredients; milk and pureed pumpkin. I like adding in all of my dry ingredients first so that I don’t get my measuring cups and spoons all wet just before measuring out my dry ingredients.
  4. Mix everything together in your bowl until a dough forms. You may have to finish mixing with your hands to get it all combined. If it’s too tough to mix, add in a little more milk. If it’s still too sticky, add in a little more flour.
  5. Once your dough is mostly combined, dump it out onto a large, clean surface to finish kneading and rolling it.
  6. Roll it out to about 1/4 to a 1/2 inch thickness into a large rectangle (like in the picture).
  7. Spread butter over the entire surface, followed by coconut sugar and then cinnamon (and pumpkin spice if you wish). Be generous as this is the filling for your cinnamon rolls that will caramelize and make it really delicious.
  8. Once finished, start rolling it into a long log shape starting at the short side and rolling tight.
  9. If you’d like to wrap it up in plastic wrap and chill it for a while first, this is the time to do so, but I don’t have the patience for that.
  10. Using a sharp bread knife, gently cut 1/2 to 1 inch slices out of your log, while holding onto the sides. Lay each piece in your prepared baking dish as you cut them.
  11. Do this for the whole cinnamon roll log.
  12. Now pop it into the oven to bake for 30 minutes.
  13. While your cinnamon rolls are baking, mix all of your icing ingredients together, first with a fork, and then transfer to a hand mixer when the cream cheese starts melting.
  14. When your cinnamon rolls are done, take them out and let them cool a bit. You don’t want all of your icing to melt when you put it on.
  15. Once cool, generously spread your icing all over your cinnamon rolls. Yum! Enjoy!

Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread

I really like making several loaves of this delicious bread at a time and keeping all but one of them in the freezer until I’m ready for them. That way I always have something delicious waiting for me in the freezer for just that moment when I don’t have the time to make something.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 3 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt

  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup honey, melted
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line two loaf pans with parchment paper.
  2. Melt your honey and coconut oil together in the microwave a little at a time.
  3. Mix them with all other ingredients (besides chocolate chips) in a medium mixing bowl.
  4. Add in your chocolate chips last and fold them in until well-distributed.
  5. Pour your batter into your prepared loaf pan and slide it into the oven.
  6. Bake for about 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.
  7. Let cool before slicing, but when ready, slide loaf out by the parchment paper to slice.

Pumpkin Coffee Cake

I think I made this recipe twice in a row. With a husband and two small boys, it was eaten so fast the first time that no one felt like they got enough, so I made it again. This nice, soft, fluffy cake topped with crunchy sweet crumble is just perfect for cold mornings.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice, homemade preferred
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree, homemade preferred
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, homemade preferred
  • 1/2 cup organic whole fat milk

Topping :

  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and grease a square casserole dish with some coconut oil.
  2. I would start by mixing in all of your dry ingredients first. That way your measuring cups and spoons won’t be messy when you need them for dry ingredients.
  3. Now mix in your wet ingredients.
  4. Your mixture will be really thick. Coffee cake is supposed to be thick and won’t cook right and be fluffy if you try and thin it out any. I know, it doesn’t make much sense.
  5. Pour your mixture into the casserole dish you prepared.
  6. Now mix your topping ingredients in a small bowl, using a fork to mix the butter in. Your topping should be crumbly and may take a little bit to mix together.
  7. Pour this over the top of your coffee cake mixture and spread out evenly.
  8. Pop in the oven and bake for about 35 minutes, or until a knife poked down into the middle comes out clean. Try not to eat it all at one time.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Pour each ingredient one at a time into a large mixing bowl starting with your oats.
  3. Add in all of your dry ingredients first.
  4. Then add in all of your wet ingredients, melting the honey before pouring in.
  5. Save your cranberries and pumpkin seeds until after you bake your granola.
  6. Mix your granola really well and pour it out into a thin, even layer on your cookie sheets so it bakes evenly.
  7. Pop it into the oven and bake for 35 minutes.
  8. When you pull it out, immediately pour it back into your large mixing bowl and stir to cool.
  9. Pour in your cranberries and pumpkin seeds and stir in.

Pumpkin Donuts

These babies were so amazing, I was asked to make them three times for my family. That last time I think I ate the majority of them. And they were so easy to make! I only had a mini bundt pan for my donuts, but they gave the fall flavored donuts just the right look. Find one for yourself here.

  6. Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool before removing from pan.
  7. If you desire, melt dark chocolate chips in a little bit of coconut oil and dip your donuts in. You could also add coconut sugar, shredded coconut, or even crushed nuts. Yum!
  8. Refrigerate briefly to harden the topping.

Sweet Potato Pumpkin Enchiladas

These enchiladas were just packed full of nutritious fall veggies. What’s great about this recipe is that you can substitute in any veggies you currently have without spoiling the flavor. Easily swap out kale for the spinach, or butternut squash for the sweet potato. I’ve even been known to include shredded carrots or parsnips.

Ingredients

  • 1 sweet potato, chopped
  • 2 cups pumpkin puree
  • 2 cups black beans
  • 2 cups corn
  • 4 cups diced tomatoes
  • 1/4 onion, chopped
  • 2 cups spinach, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons pink Himalayan salt
  • 2 cups shredded cheese
  • 2 cups red enchilada sauce
  • 6 whole wheat flour tortillas (homemade recipe)

Instructions

  1. Start by washing and peeling your sweet potato.
  2. Then chop it up into small pieces and dump it into a medium pot of water on the stove. Boil it over medium high heat for about 30 minutes until it cuts easily with a fork.
  3. In the meantime, we’ll get to preparing the rest of the dish. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
  4. In a small sauce pot, combine the ingredients for your red enchilada sauce. (Until I get it published, I’ll include the recipe for you below.)
  5. Now it’s time to chop your fresh ingredients.
  6. It’s time to dump all of your filling ingredients, pumpkin, black beans, corn, tomatoes, onions and spinach, into a large pot and heat over medium.
  7. Add in your seasonings and stir well.
  8. When the sweet potatoes are ready, drain them and mix them into your enchilada filling as well.
  9. Now it’s time to make your enchiladas. Start by spreading 1/4 of your sauce on the bottom of the pan. Top with a layer of tortillas.
  10. Now to layer. Spread 1/4 of your red enchilada sauce, then 1/2 of your enchilada filling, then 1/3 of your cheese and repeat.
  11. Finish with a layer of tortillas, the rest of your sauce, and the last of your cheese.
  12. Bake for about 30 minutes.

Crockpot Pumpkin Chicken Chili

For a wonderfully warm and flavorful chili recipe, this one uses up all of the fall veggies you’ve been collecting for the last two months. This is a great recipe to use up your butternut squash, acorn squash, sweet potatoes, carrots, and most especially, pumpkin. We made enough that we were able to freeze half of it for a whole other meal later. Yum! This is one of my fall favorites.

Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts, cooked or raw
  • 2 cups pinto beans, (or other bean)
  • 1 cup pumpkin, chopped
  • 1 cup sweet potato, chopped
  • 4 carrots, chopped
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon sage
  • 1 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt

Instructions

  1. Start by dumping your chicken and beans into the crockpot. I do not suggest using dried beans. If you are not using canned beans, at least soak them the night before.
  2. Then add your veggies.
  3. Finally add your broth and spices.
  4. Cover your crockpot and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 7-8. Everything in my pot was already cooked when it went in, so it didn’t need to cook for too long. If your ingredients are raw or uncooked, it will obviously take the full time.

Pumpkin Puree

I use pumpkin for all of the above recipes and more. We can’t forget about pumpkin cookies, pumpkin and pecan cobbler, and all sorts of yummy casserole dishes that this would be perfect for. And the process of cooking your pumpkin and processing them into a puree, is so easy, there’s no excuse not to do it yourself.

Ingredients

  • a pumpkin

Instructions

  • Start by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F and lining a cookie sheet with parchment paper. It really doesn’t matter how big or small you pumpkins are, this will still work.
  • Cut your pumpkin(s) in half and scoop out the seeds and pulp with a spoon. Set the aside for later.
  • Lay out your pumpkin, cut side up, on your cookie sheet.
  • Bake for about 30-45 minutes, or until the pumpkin flesh cuts easily with a fork.
  • Pull out your pumpkin(s) and let it cool on the stove.
  • When ready, scoop out the flesh from the skin with a spoon and put it into a bowl on the side.
  • You’ll then process it in your food processor in stages, depending on how much pumpkin flesh you ended up with. Process until smooth.
  • Pour into sandwich bags, or 1 to 2 cup portions, seal tightly, lay flay on your cookie sheet and slide into the freezer so they freeze flat.
  • When frozen, take them off of the cookie sheet and store them in the freezer. They will last just about indefinitely, or until you need them, in the freezer.
  • I would then roast your pumpkin seeds! Yum!

With all of these delicious ways to use your leftover Halloween and Thanksgiving pumpkins, there’s no reason that any of them should be thrown away this year.

I do offer you a word of caution: If you carved your pumpkins for Halloween and they have been sitting outside for an extended amount of time, I don’t recommend trying to use them for food. They would have needed to be used right away after displaying them for Halloween to keep them from going bad. But as long as they haven’t been cut into yet, and show no signs of rotting, you’re just fine.

I have been pleasantly surprised over the years to discover all of the colors and flavors of the different varieties of pumpkins. The really big Cinderella pumpkins are often a deep orange, like you would see in canned pumpkin. However, the small sugar pumpkins are the lightest orange, but best pumpkins to use for your pumpkin pies.

I promise.
