Make the most out of fall with these vegan Pumpkin Recipes. From comforting main meals to appetizers, dips, pumpkin pizza, pumpkin fritters and more!
Leaves turning orange and red until they fall to the ground (those can be slippery as hell), a lot more rainy days, and cold temperatures.. to be honest fall isn’t my favorite time of the year, but fall produce and especially pumpkins make everything better!
So in this round-up, I’m bringing you some of my favorite vegan pumpkin recipes from Pumpkin Basil Pinwheels (perfect for parties!), Pumpkin Nuggets (great for kids to snack on or in tacos), to the more comforting dishes like Pumpkin Lasagne and Pumpkin Goulash.
Hokkaido pumpkin is my favorite pumpkin kind and it’s also the most common here in Austria. Acorn squash is a close second (it’s perfect for filling it with couscous, rice or veggies!). Butternut squash is perfect for roasting and dips. There are recipes for all three of these pumpkins in this post.
I’m sure you’ll find some you’ll want to try this fall! The recipes are categorized by
- soups
- dips
- snacks
- and main dishes
Vegan Pumpkin Soup
Roasted Pumpkin Soup – coconut milk and pumpkin seed swirls make this soup an eye-catcher!
Vegan Pumpkin Dips
Roasted Pumpkin Hummus – your hummus deserves a fall makeover!
Vegan & Gluten-free Butternut Squash Dip – the skin of the butternut squash makes the best container for this dip! Serve with bread slices, tortilla chips or homemade crackers.
Vegan Pumpkin Snacks

Pumpkin Basil Pinwheels – these Pinwheels are almost too easy to make. Filled with homemade pumpkin purée and basil, these are a must-have for every fall party!

Vegan Pumpkin Main Dishes
Vegan Pumpkin Lasagne with Cashew Cheese – I’ve used gluten-free green lentil lasagna sheets to make this lasagne completely gluten-free. It’s topped with homemade cashew cheese and pumpkin slices. So good!
Vegan Pumpkin Nugget Tacos – using the pumpkin nuggets from above, these tacos with homemade garlic sunflower seed sauce are the perfect treat for fall!
Couscous Stuffed Acorn Squash – Roasted acorn squash is perfect for any festive meal. Stuff it with couscous and mushrooms and top it with cranberry sauce. Yumm!

The fact that all of these are SAVORY pumpkin recipes is quite impressive. There’s enough pie in the world right now to last years lol. I think those nuggets are at the top of my list, I just cannot resist cute ketchup-worthy finger food :)

See, I didn’t even notice? I’m so in my savory-pumpkin-bubble, I didn’t even think about sweet pumpkin recipes. Though, I’ve been meaning to ease my way into sweet pumpkin recipes with pumpkin pancakes. :)
