These 17 Trader Joe's Pumpkin Products Are All Your Pumpkin Dreams Come True

Trader Joe's cereal bars are great for slipping into kids' lunch boxes, or into your own purse for a quick hunger-pangs remedy. You'll feel good knowing it contains actual pumpkin (no fake gourds were used in the making of this product), no hydrogenated oils, and natural sweeteners like cane syrup and brown rice syrup. The price — just under $2 for a box of six — is just as sweet.

I have a coworker who rushes to pick up a couple of boxes of this seasonal treat as soon as it hits the shelves, and who can blame her? It's a whole-grain breakfast option that makes it easier to wake up on chilly fall mornings. A box of eight packets sells for under $4.

Is there any cozier dinner than a steaming bowl of autumn-flavored soup? Heat up a jar or two of Trader Joe's creamy, nutty-sweet pumpkin bisque ($4 per jar), serve with crusty bread topped with cheese, and you'll wish fall could last forever.

Not a hot-cereal fan? You can still get your morning gourd fix with these pumpkin-flavored whole-grain rings. They're gluten-free, low in fat, and just what you need to get your day off to a pumpkin-y start.

You wouldn't think that squashes and bread would go together, but they make a surprisingly fabulous combination. Like its popular cousin, zucchini bread, pumpkin adds moisture and flavor to the traditional quick-bread batter. Add a little oil, water, and egg, and you can mix up a batch of muffins — or a full sliceable loaf — that will disappear almost as soon as you serve it. TJ's mix is just $3 a box.

Why stand in line and pay top dollar for a PSL when you can brew your own at home? Trader Joe's has both bags of ground coffee and these single-serve cups for your home coffeemaker. You might be tempted just to inhale it for a while before drinking it.

Pumpkin and pasta? Yes, indeed. Trader Joe's seasonal ravioli combines a thin dough with a rich, flavorful pumpkin-ricotta filling. A perfect quick-fix dinner for a busy fall weeknight.

What better partner for your cup of pumpkin coffee than these crunchy autumnal cookies? Made with butter, eggs, and pumpkin puree, they were made to be dunked in a hot beverage for a moment of bliss to break up a long day. A box goes for $4.

Returning for another successful year is this fan favorite, a carefully blended mixture of oats, cornflakes, pumpkin and pumpkin seeds, quinoa, and dark chocolate. It's surprisingly low in sugar and fat, but you wouldn't be able to tell just by tasting. At $4 a bag, you'll want to pick up more than one.

Watch out, Grandma: Your oatmeal cookies have competition. TJ's ups the ante by adding pumpkin and chocolate chunks to the traditional batter, making for a rich taste explosion. Pass the milk.

So you want even more pumpkin breakfast options? No problem. Trader Joe's also has this pancake and waffle mix ($2 per box), which you'll want to keep handy for a weekend morning treat. Or serve the pancakes for dinner one night. No one will judge you.

Families with gluten allergies or sensitivity are often left out when it comes to yummy carbs. Not so here. Trader Joe's offers a GF pumpkin bread/muffin mix that offers the same spicy flavor without the gluten. ($4/box)

Could this be any more pumpkin? Trader Joe's takes traditional roasted pepitas (which are yummy enough in themselves), coats them in a buttery toffee glaze, and adds pumpkin pie spices for extra oomph. Enjoy them as is, or add them to a salad or soup. They're $3 per bag.

Don't let the plain-looking box fool you. This is an anything-but-boring dessert that will be the hit of a family dinner or a Halloween party. Genuine pumpkin is the third ingredient in this rich cheesecake (cream cheese and sugar being the first two), so you know it's bound to be good. Serve it as is, or add a drizzle of chocolate syrup or a dollop of whipped cream. TJ's is offering it at $7 per box.

As we keep telling our kids, it's nice to share our things with others. But (shhh) we wouldn't blame you a bit if you decided to keep a container of this drool-worthy ice cream ($4 per quart) for yourself, hidden at the back of the freezer.

Need a break from coffee? Try this African herbal tea (pronounced "roy-boss"), perfumed with the cinnamon-clove pumpkin spices we all know and love. Flavorful, warming, and rich in antioxidants, too — sip and relax. Available for $4 for 20 sachets.

For a nonalcoholic alternative to pumpkin ales, open up a bottle of this bubbly. The combo of ginger purée and pumpkin pie spices is tingly and refreshing.
