I’ve been on the search for awhile now for some vegan pumpkin spice cream cheese and have had no luck at my local stores for the last several years. So this year I wanted to try making my own and I’m so glad I did. This pumpkin spice cream cheese is so delicious and has quickly become one my favorite spreads. I actually plan to enjoy this yearlong because it’s that good! I love to spread this on a toasted pumpkin spice bagel in the morning for a perfect fall flavored breakfast. Trader Joe’s Gluten-Free Pumpkin Spice Bagels are my favorite to use and they finally made them vegan this year! I also like to spread this pumpkin spice cream cheese on my Vegan Grain-Free Rolls or my Healthy Pumpkin Oatmeal Muffins for another fall flavored breakfast option.
