Hello everyone, welcome to my latest recipe for Easy Pumpkin Puree, perfect for seasonal baking. I usually always buy canned pumpkin to use in my autumn recipes but this year I thought I would have a go at making my own.
I used a small pumpkin from Tesco that was only 95p and managed to get a large jar of puree from it. I decided to cut my pumpkin in half and roast it in the oven. Saved on a lot of chopping and may pumpkin was perfectly cooked in 70 minutes.
I’m now thinking of new recipes to use my pumpkin puree in. The short list so far is:
- Pumpkin Spice Fudge (Gluten & Dairy Free)
- Spiced Pumpkin Chocolate Pudding (Gluten & Dairy Free)
- Pumpkin Spice Biscotti (Gluten & Dairy Free)
- Spiced Pumpkin French Toast (Gluten & Dairy Free)
