Pumpkin Maple Salad Dressing is the perfect blend of autumnal flavors that transforms your greens into a vibrant, festive dish. Combining the creamy richness of pumpkin puree with the warm sweetness of maple syrup, this dressing is like a cozy hug for your salads.

A touch of apple cider vinegar adds a zesty kick, while a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spices evokes that classic fall magic. Drizzle it over a bed of mixed greens, roasted pecans, and dried cranberries for a salad that’s not only health-conscious but also an irresistible celebration of fall’s finest flavors!

I used this dressing with a simple fall inspired salad with a base of baby spinach that’s topped with roasted butternut squash, dried cranberries, pecans, and goat cheese. It was a super easy dish that is great as a lunch or even a side salad as part of a dinner.
