I can’t help but get smitten with fall—amazing weather, colorful trees, trick or treats and of course, pumpkins!

To pay tribute to that great orange vegetable and this season’s most popular ornament, I am sharing with you a recipe from Nomadic’s “Family Recipes” book for you to try in your own home. It’s a yummy pumpkin cake recipe submitted by Lynn Reves, our VP for Customer and Design Services. Here it is:

Ingredients:

• 1 box Duncan Hines Yellow Cake Mix
• 4 Eggs
• ¾ cup Sugar
• 1 can Libby’s Pumpkin (16 oz.)
• ¼ cup Water
• ½ cup Wesson oil
• 1 ½ tsp. Cinnamon
• ½ tsp. Nutmeg

Bake in tub pan for 1 hour at 350°. Ice with cream cheese frosting.

Happy baking!

(This recipe is in memory of Janet Martin, a departed dear friend of Lynn’s family, whose love for baking still lives on.)
