Welcome to another Food Fight! Fantastical Food Fight is a group of food bloggers who will get a theme or ingredient each month and make some sort of variation for it. It could be traditional or nontraditional and can be found in a cookbook, on a blog, or be a blogger's own creation! For more details, check out this page.
This month's Fantastical Food Fight theme is PUMPKIN. I tried to make sure that we didn't repeat a theme/ingredient and it seemed like the perfect time to share some pumpkin recipes, so our theme for October is the ingredient pumpkin. It can be savory or sweet.
I chose to share one of my favorite quick treats or if I'm feeling like it, breakfast. Mug cakes are so super easy and a ton of them can be made with ingredients you already have on hand (especially if you bake a lot). I gotta say that it's really awesome to make a cake in less than 5 minutes. You get that little bit of sweet treat without all the mess and time. It's the best! This pumpkin mug cake is so much like a classic pumpkin cake and you could dress it up with pecans and caramel if you wanted to indulge a little more!

What you need:
- 2 Tbsp. water
- 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
- 1 Tbsp. pumpkin puree
- 2 Tbsp. granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
- 1/8 tsp. salt
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
- In a small bowl, whisk together all ingredients.
- Pour into a mug that has been coated with nonstick spray.
- Microwave for 60 to 90 seconds depending on your microwave. Mine is 1200 watts and 60 seconds was just right. You want a toothpick to come out clean.
- Dust with powdered sugar and serve.
The winner of the BREAKFAST CASSEROLE Food Fight is Wendy from A Day in the Life on the Farm with her Amish Breakfast Casserole. You cannot go wrong with a breakfast casserole with eggs, potatoes, and bacon, in my opinion! Oh and cheese - lots of cheese :)
