Cranberry Pumpkin Crisps
Similar to Trader Joe's Raisin Rosemary Crisps, these Cranberry Pumpkin Crisps are thin and crunchy crackers with chewy bits of dried fruit throughout. You get notes of cranberries, sunflower seeds, flax seeds, and a whole lot of pumpkin spice . . . a little too much, actually. A spread of cool, tangy goat cheese would round out the spiciness of the crisps, but snacking on these on their own doesn't leave us coming back for more.
★★☆☆

Pumpkin Pizzelle
Part waffle cone and part cookie, these Sprouts Pumpkin Pizzelles are a Fall twist on a classic Italian cookie. They're not bursting with flavor and aren't as crunchy as we would have liked, but they'd pair really well with homemade butterscotch and coffee for an afternoon treat.
★★★☆☆

Sprouts Old Fashioned Pumpkin Snaps
Sprouts Pumpkin Snaps are similar to a traditional ginger snap cookie but are heavy on the pumpkin flavor — in a good way. The crunchy cookies aren't overly sweet and have just the right amount of spice. You could easily pulverize these crisps in a food processor and use as a crust for pumpkin pie.
★★★★☆

Sea Salted Pumpkin Seed Tortilla Chips
Fans of corn tortilla chips are sure to love the Sprouts Sea Salted Pumpkin Seed Tortilla Chips. Made with pumpkin seeds, pumpkin powder, and a trace of lime, these chips are all savory and not at all sweet.
★★★★☆

Organic Pumpkin Spiced Apple Cider
Sprouts Organic Pumpkin Spiced Apple Cider is a high-quality apple cider with just a hint of pumpkin and spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. It's decidedly tasty at room temperature but would be even better warmed up with a splash of whiskey. Use this to make a quick and easy version of a hot toddy with a pumpkin spiced twist.
