Baking Demon

Sunday morning I was like a Tasmanian devil in the kitchen!  I had a 28oz can of pumpkin puree that I wanted to use and found 3 recipes that used every last drop.  First up was Mama Peas pumpkin spice bars.
The only thing I switched up was subbing macadamia nut oil for the canola oil.  I also used a 1/3 cup of dark chocolate chips because I didn?t have some of the icing ingredients.
I had to bake the batch longer than what was called for, but they were worth the wait.  I mean, look at the goodness here!
Next was Faith?s pumpkin spice syrup!
My photos do not do it justice.  Again, I simmered it longer than suggested because I wanted a thicker syrup.
I promptly made myself a cup of coffee with the syrup and milk.  To. Die. For.   The last cup of pumpkin went into another one of Faith?s recipes; pumpkin donuts!
Well, mine were ?timbits? or ?donut holes? because I don?t own a donut tin.  I used my mini muffin pan instead and ended up with 40 yummy bites!
I also subbed macadamia nut oil in this recipe (more on that to come!).
And in place of vanilla bean paste for the glaze I used 1 tsp of the pumpkin spice syrup.  
DS was shoving these in his mouth faster than I could get the glaze on them!  Too bad my hands were sticky or I would?ve taken a picture of him in action!   To say these were a big hit would be an understatement.  By the time I went to bed Sunday night there were 4 of the 40 left.  LOL  And here I was thinking to share with the girls at work!  Yeah, right.  :)   Have you baked up any amazing blogger recipes lately?  Do share!
FOOD!  See the pumpkin spice syrup on the oats?  Mmmmm?. **Now that the time has changed I can take breakfast photos in the sun.  Unfortunately, by the time we eat dinner its dark so now those pictures are blah.  I can?t win!** NEWSFLASH!!  I just saw a commercial over the weekend that Tim Horton?s is now selling oatmeal!!!  BONUS, especially because I really don?t like much of the ?food? that they serve there.  But I?m thrilled about the oats.  And that there?s a Timmy?s within walking distance of my house and the office!  YAY!
Don?t forget to enter my CSN Stores giveaway!!  You have until Wednesday at 5pm to enter!!  That?s all I?ve got for today!
Bye for now!!
