Fall is the season of fuzzy socks, warm fires, and sweet treats. I love nothing more than spending my Sunday mornings baking up goodies for the ones I love most.

In honor of the season (and my love for baking), I’m partnering with Krusteaz to bring you guys a recipe for pumpkin muffins with a walnut cream cheese frosting.

These are super easy to make and super yummy to eat. Let’s get to baking >>>>>

1 tsp. of vanilla extract

1/2 cup of crushed walnuts
