This is the BEST Crock Pot Pumpkin Spice Chili Recipe EVER! Made with pumpkin purée and ground beef slowly cooked in the crock pot.

If you’re wondering, which I’m sure most of you are, it actually tastes like pumpkin spice mixed with a spicy and savory chili. You’ve got to taste it to believe it!

Crock Pot Pumpkin Spice Chili
While this uniquely incredible chili recipe includes pumpkin purée, pumpkin spice, and cinnamon… don’t let that fool you into thinking it tastes like a sweet dessert. Oh no! Just like a good chili should taste, it is spicy, hearty, and savory. The various peppers and onions slowly cook together with the pumpkin and cinnamon flavors to create a cold-weather dinner masterpiece! We served our chili over a baked potato, but you can eat it alone, with rice, or even pasta.
