Pumpkin Patch Munch

Cook· Holidays· Side Dish

Pumpkin Patch Munch

With Fall just around the corner (YAY!) I wanted to share my favorite autumn treat with you. It’s probably the easiest thing EVER to make, but it is so tatsy!

Fall is definitely my favorite time of year! Cooler weather, bonfires, leaves changing colors AND all the awesom candy! This Pumpkin Patch Munch is the best combo of salty and sweet. I am eating a bowl of it while I’m typing right now. This munch would be a great gift or a nice little snack on a hay ride through the pumpkin patch (hence the name)!

All you need is two ingredients:

  • Bag of candy corn (love the white, yellow and orange colors)
  • Jar of peanuts

Mix the two ingredients in a bowl and that’s it!

Candy Corn and peanut mix

You do want to store the munch in a air tight container for freshness.

Here a a few pictures of my daughter last year at the pumpkin patch. It was her first time going and she got to pick out her own pumpkin.

I think she wanted to take all the pumpkins home, but we only let her pick one.

They had the cutest little wagons at the patch! I’m pretty sure they were to hold the pumpkins and not your child, but she just loved riding in it.

Hope you have a wonderful time this fall!

    Oh, what a lovely idea! Candy corn hasn’t started making an appearance yet here in the UK (we’ve only started doing the whole Halloween thing in the last 5 years, really) but I get my mom to send me a few bags every year! Can’t wait to try this! πŸ™‚ I followed you here from the party at 6 Sister’s Stuff & would like to invite you to come link up with me on Tuesdays at Tasty Tuesdays, where every post gets pinned! Hope to see you on Tuesday! Here’s the link to all my parties: http://anyonitanibbles.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Tasty%20Tuesdays
