Ingredients
  • 1 Pie or Sugar Pumpkin
  • Olive or Avocado Oil
Directions

  • Step 2 Wash pumpkin, cut in half and scoop out the seeds.
  • Step 3 Place the pumpkin on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Step 4 Use a fork to poke holes in the rind so heat/steam can escape.
  • Step 5 Drizzle the inside with olive or avocado oil (optional).
  • Step 6 Pop in the oven and bake for 40 – 50 minutes – until the inside is soft and pulls away from the rind.
  • Step 7 Puree in a blender for use in pies and muffins. Add a few tablespoons of water if extra moisture needed.
