Thanksgiving is tomorrow!! I can’t believe it! We’ve been put in charge of a handful of dishes this year, and one at the request of both my grandma, who’s hosting, and my dad.
To save time tomorrow and keep my anxiety levels in check, I decided to make a couple of the dishes tonight, instead of having to wake up crazy early to get started.
We chose to make our two dessert dishes tonight, and save our other two side dishes for tomorrow.
One of the desserts, a pumpkin crumble cake, was a huge hit with my family. I found this recipe on Facebook a couple of weeks ago and decided to give it a try. Both my grandma and my dad must have really liked it, because both of them asked us to bring it to Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow!
This recipe has the best consistency: pumpkin pie on the bottom, and a cobbler/cake top! It is so delicious, and such a fun twist on traditional pumpkin pie!
