Disney recently celebrated their “Halfway To Halloween” event by sharing a delightful collection of pumpkin recipes from their parks, and they did it in May—because, why not? With the Halloween season exactly six months away, the Disney Parks Blog has unveiled a selection of their favorite pumpkin-inspired dishes to bring a taste of the season into our homes.
Despite the parks being closed, and with time feeling like it has no meaning, why not whip up some Disney-quality pumpkin pancakes or Jack Skellington cookies right in your kitchen? The popularity of their previously shared churro recipe has encouraged Disney to keep the hits coming, providing at-home bakers with the chance to recreate park treats.
Featured Pumpkin Recipes
Among the featured recipes are:
- Fluffy Pumpkin Pancakes from Kona Café at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort—perfect for a summery snack.
- Pumpkin Twists, typically found at Maurice’s Treats in Disneyland; these can be easily made using store-bought puff pastry.
- Pumpkin Bars from Cape May Café at Disney’s Beach Club Resort, resembling mini pumpkin pies that are simpler to prepare.
- Jack Skellington Sugar Cookies, a playful nod to Halloween, suitable for any summer gathering.
- Pumpkin Crème Brûlée, a special creation crafted just for this blog post, offering a unique treat for at-home chefs.
In keeping with the Halloween spirit, Disney has also shared a video of the festive firework display from The Nightmare Before Christmas during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party at the Magic Kingdom Park. While we look forward to indulging in these treats at the parks again someday, now is the perfect time to grab some canned pumpkin and get baking!
