We know there are plenty of haters out there... But an even bigger lot of lovers. That's right we're talking pumpkin spice and everything nice!

I fell in love with PSL when it was first introduced. Mind you, I get mine toned down and amped with less pumps and more espresso. It just tastes like a crisp fall breeze topped with whipped cream. Of course, I also love a slice of pumpkin bread or a spicy nut-filled muffin, but I do agree with some naysayers that the pumpkin-spice craze has gone a little, well, cray. There's a not-so fine line between delicious and disgusting. 

This week, I received a package from General Mills. It was all the fixings to make ooey-gooey pumpkin-spice cereal bars using limited-edition Pumpkin-Spice flavored Cheerios. I was skeptical, but, by themselves, those O's were tasty, and I'll keep you posted on those bars after I made a batch this weekend!

Regardless, I'm suddenly inspired and ready to embrace pumpkin-spice season--within reason, of course. I've rounded up a few of those most delicious recipes for you fall baking pleasure. Enjoy.
