Here’s a simple fall recipe that will become a favorite family snack. Pumpkin Spice Rice Krispie Treats take all the deliciousness of traditional rice krispie treats to a whole new level.

Not only do these pumpkin flavored treats satisfy all your fall cravings, but they’re so quick and easy to make. It’s just original recipe you find on the back of the box with spices you probably already have in your pantry thrown in. Fall flavored spices like cinnamon, ginger and cloves.

I do have one important tip to share before you get started. Since the recipe calls for pumpkin to be combined with the melted marshmallow, it makes the mixture more dense than the original recipe. Be sure to let the mixture cool down as the recipe instructs before stirring in the rice krispies. Otherwise your treats will become soggy.

My family loves these treats. And I mean, who can blame them? Seriously, who can say no to all that ooey gooey marshmallowy goodness or delicious pumpkin flavor that screams “FALL IS HERE!”?

Pumpkin Spice Rice Krispie treats are also the perfect for holiday get togethers, classroom celebrations and even tailgate parties.
