I detest pumpkin pie. Alternative pumpkin desserts?

Anonymous
It's squash-y and mushy thus a devil pie in my opinion. Sacrilege, I know. But I've been asked to make a pumpkin dessert for Thanksgiving so looking for alternatives. Links to your fave recipes are greatly appreciated.

Im not a fan of pumkin pie either. I love pumpkin bread or cake with a glaze, or pumpkin cheesecake.

Pumpkin spice ice cream with pumpkin seed brittle. All the pumpkin flavor without any actual pumpkin!

Second this. It's relatively easy and looks fancy for a gathering.

OP here. Thanks for the suggestions everyone!

Question about the roll, is it always filled with cream cheese or has anyone had it with whipped cream inside? I think I would prefer the latter. Maybe with an additional layer of salted caramel for good measure.

I had a pumpkin bread pudding yesterday. It was delicious.
