The beginning of fall brings buzz and excitement around all things pumpkin. From the huggable lattes we eagerly await all year to the homemade roasted pumpkin seeds whipped up after carving a jack-o'-lantern on Halloween to the first (or third) slice of pie during the holidays, there's a place for pumpkin in everyone's heart.

In her new cookbook, Purely Pumpkin, Allison Day, popular blogger and creator of the award-winning YummyBeet.com, brings the cozy warmth of pumpkin into our homes with a seasonal, whole foods recipe set and earthy food photography. With savory and sweet recipes for all meals of the day--including a mouthwatering pumpkin dessert chapter--it's the cookbook your home shouldn't be without during the fall and winter months.

Homemade pumpkin spice latte variations along with wholesome meals ideal for every day and holidays are tucked into this plentiful pumpkin volume. Utilizing pumpkin flesh, pumpkin puree, pumpkin seeds, pumpkin spice, pumpkin seed oil, and heirloom pumpkins, there's something in Purely Pumpkin for every craving, festivity, time constraint, and cooking level.

As enjoyable to cook from as it is to flip through while curled up next to a crackling fire, there's no better way to celebrate, share, and savor the pumpkin harvest this season.
