I'm not sure if this is an unpopular opinion but... I never want pumpkin season to end!!! I could NOT be more obsessed with pumpkin spice and all things nice. Is it bad I've already started thinking about Christmas too though... Anyways, these paleo pumpkin blondies are the perfect 'lil fall (and any time of year) treat to keep you in the autumn spirit. Even in the summer, spring, or winter, I'd still make these because they're just so darn delicious! Made with gut-friendly, paleo-friendly, and nutritious ingredients, these are the perfect snack to have around all fall long!
I am someone who loves to really get into the festive spirit of a season. For fall, this means pumpkin patches, apple picking, and of course, baking! I would be content spending the day in the kitchen with the lovely pumpkin aromas filling the air and looking outside at all of the fall colors; makes my heart warm and happy. Baking fall treats like these paleo pumpkin blondies, can be the perfect family activity or way to spend your Saturday. They're also the perfect addition to any Thanksgiving menu! I hope you all enjoy these yummy treats!
