I’ve made a lot of pumpkin pies, but this one is my absolute favorite. The texture is on point, the flavor is unreal, and the fact that it’s gluten-free makes it even better. The silky filling is made with real pumpkin and just the right mix of spices. It's all tucked into a flaky on the outside (yet perfectly moist on the inside) gluten-free crust.
Personally, I had one bite and immediately decided this was the only pumpkin pie recipe I’d be using from now on. Bookmark this now! You’ll thank me around Thanksgiving when everyone asks for the recipe.
Spiced Gluten Free Pumpkin Donuts
These donuts. THESE DONUTS. They’re baked, gluten free, and somehow still taste like something you’d get at a fancy bakery. I found these spiced gluten free pumpkin donuts to be soft, fluffy and cake-like.
Because they are baked, not fried, they feel extra high-end. Each one is coated in cinnamon sugar and delivers that warm, pumpkin spice flavor with every bite. They’re the perfect excuse to have dessert with your morning coffee, if you ask me.
If you’re even thinking about making a fall treat, make these. They’re addictive in the best way.
Vegan Pumpkin Muffins
I made these vegan pumpkin muffins thinking they’d last a few days. They didn’t. Gone in 6 hours. They’re soft, just sweet enough, and ridiculously easy to make.
These vegan pumpkin muffins are the kind of snack that doubles as breakfast and triples as dessert. Moist, warmly spiced, and packed with real pumpkin, they’re the grab-and-go option that actually tastes like you planned your day. Honestly, they taste like something you’d pay $5 for at a bougie bakery. You need these in your life! Don’t sleep on them.
Gluten Free Spice Cake with Vegan Cream Cheese
This gluten free spice cake is all the best flavors of fall baking! Including cinnamon, nutmeg, and a hint of clove, topped with a silky vegan cream cheese frosting that’s tangy, smooth, and luxuriously decadant. It’s the kind of dessert that feels fancy but is super easy to make.
I imagine that you'll love how it totally steals the show at any fall gathering. Even the “I don’t like spice cake” people will be going back back for seconds. Bake this, frost it, and enjoy the applause.
Easy Gluten Free Stuffing With Vegan Sausage
Meet your new favorite comfort Thanksgiving side dish: GF stuffing made with vegan sausage! Featuring fluffy, gluten free homemade bread smothered in rich, savory plant-based sausages that tastes like it came straight from Grandma’s kitchen—if Grandma had a vegan food blog.
The breading is soft inside with the perfect golden edge, and the stuffing sauce is creamy, flavorful, and shockingly meat-free. Perfect for holiday meals (or anytime, honestly!)
I made this for a “test run” before the holidays and now I fully plan on making it weekly. It’s that good. Flavorful, comforting, and somehow even better the next day. Gluten free and plant-based, and oh-so delicious.
Gluten Free Apple Crisp
Okay, I made this gluten free apple crisp one weekend and…have been dreaming about it ever since! It’s one of those desserts where you’re like, “I’ll just have a bite” and then suddenly the whole dish is gone.
The apples get tender, tucked beneath a golden, crunchy oat topping that’s buttery (but not too buttery) and just sweet enough. It’s easy to throw together, uses ingredients you probably already have, and pairs perfectly with a scoop of dairy-free vanilla ice cream.
It’s cozy, it’s nostalgic, and honestly, I don’t even miss traditional crisp anymore. If you need a foolproof fall dessert, this is it. Trust me, make it once and you’ll be hooked. (Also, this gluten free apple crisp is the kind of cozy dessert that makes your whole kitchen smell like fall in the best way!)
Gluten Free Apple Pie
Get ready for a gluten-free apple pie that will blow your mind. I baked it for a little fall dinner and it turned into the main event. I didn’t even tell anyone it was gluten free and they were fighting over the last slice. It's one of those pies where people say, “Wait... you made this?” Save this recipe and make it for someone you love. Or just for yourself.
This gluten free apple pie hits all the nostalgic notes: tender, cinnamon-spiced apples nestled in a golden, flaky crust. The filling is sweet-but-not-too-sweet, with just the right touch of tart. While the crust is buttery, crisp, and won’t fall apart when you slice it.
Plant-Based Gravy with Gluten Free Biscuits
You might not be prepared for how comforting this combo is! Fluffy home baked biscuits with plant-based gravy is a must for Fall! I made it for a cozy dinner and immediately regretted not doubling the batch. The biscuits are fluffy, the plant-based gravy is next-level rich. It's the best kind of comfort food.
