It’s not quite December, so I can post one more fall pumpkin recipe right? I got the idea for these pumpkin deviled eggs on Pinterest, and because I love cute food, had to try my own version. They don’t actually include pumpkins, they just look like them!
Rather than top the deviled eggs with paprika and draw in lines, I mixed in the paprika for a rich orange hue, and used a basket tip on a frosting bag to pipe in the filling. This technique went SO fast, I had 10 deviled egg pumpkins in under five minutes. Seriously easy Thanksgiving appetizer recipe. Or cute snack for your kids!
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving celebration. We were blessed to two Thanksgiving meals, one at my parents’ and one at Eric’s parents’. Busy day! We don’t know if we will always live so close to our families, so we are definitely trying to get in those family holidays while we can. It was also really special for Corban and his cousin to get to play with each other on Thanksgiving.
What made Thanksgiving special for you this year?
