One of my favorite flavors for dessert recipes this time of year is pumpkin desserts. Pumpkin pie is not just for fall anymore, you could eat it all year long. These easy Pumpkin Cream Cheese Popovers make great breakfast or an easy dessert recipe.

They are warm and gooey and taste oh so pumpkiny. They are full of fall flavors and spices. They are really simple to make and the cream cheese topping adds just enough sweetness to it, it’s hard to eat just one.

These would be great for breakfast or for dessert. They would also be a nice treat for a holiday party. They are pretty and can be served out of the oven or even room temperature. You can sprinkle a little Pumpkin Pie Spice on top.

The popovers can be made in under 30 minutes which makes them an easy dessert treat. After I made them, I thought they could even be made a little smaller or cut in half again as you are putting them together to make smaller dessert appetizers for your party. I do have to say that one is not enough. They are that good.
