There’s always some room left for a sweet treat, especially for these pumpkin desserts, great as a snack, for autumn afternoon tea or comforting pudding after dinner.

For a dinner party starter, or when you need a comforting autumn supper, try this silky, simple soup. A veggie’s dream, it’s freezable, too, for an easy midweek meal. We recommend serving with crunchy croutons and a sprinkling of pumpkin seeds for added texture.

Add a touch of lemongrass, ginger, chilli and creamy coconut milk for a Thai twist on the traditional pumpkin soup. The coconut milk adds a thick, smooth texture and the warming spices are perfect for cool winter evenings. For an extra decadent flourish, add a dollop of soured cream on top.

This healthy squash speciality is low-fat and easily prepped in 15 minutes. If you’re carving a pumpkin for Halloween, this is a great use for the flesh and seeds, so nothing goes to waste. Feel free to add other seasonal veggies such as sweet potato or butternut squash.

We recommend using a Crown Prince pumpkin for this indulgent soup. Chicken stock, double cream and pieces of maple-cured bacon make this rich recipe perfect for impressing dinner party guests. Garnish with a drizzle of maple syrup and some scattered pumpkin seeds.
