I love this time of year when the leaves start to change color and the weather outside is not so-frightful. (Although, it's getting there!) Fall is my favorite time of the year. First, there's Halloween (which I'm absolutely obsessed with), Thanksgiving, then Christmas! I love the fall flavors and pumpkin simply epitomizes fall. It’s like getting a warm bear hug. I’ve been experimenting with pumpkin lately and instead of baking a pie, I wanted to make something different. So, I made pumpkin frozen yogurt. It has pureed pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg and it’s surprisingly creamy. It’s the perfect dessert for fall!
{Pumpkin Frozen Yogurt} You'll need: 1 1/2 cups Greek lowfat yogurt| 1 1/2 cups whole milk| 1 1/2 cups dark brown sugar| 2 cups pureed pumpkin| 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon| 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
Directions: Whisk all ingredients in a bowl until combined. Place in an ice cream freezer bowl and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions.
Enjoy!
I initially started this blog in 2010 to chronicle my baking adventures. In 2013 I became a mother and this space shifted to sharing my DIYs and inspiration for creative living. Since then, I've been fortunate to work with multiple companies producing creative editorial content. As I look back at this blog, I'm reminded of how your passions can actually unfold into a career. And if you're really patient and willing to put in the all the work, dream jobs do come true. So it is here where I say au revoir to my beloved blog, aka my creative journal. You can still find me on @craftedbyjen . xoxo, Jen
