I have roasted and preserved all of our garden pie pumpkins now. I saved some puree for baking/cooking. I typically freeze the puree in containers, but I ran out of them, so I froze the rest in ziploc bags, and froze them flat on a baking sheet to save space, and store more easily.
New recipe tried - White Bean Turkey Pumpkin Chili (SkinnyTaste online). There are no tomatoes in this chili. We found this to lack flavor, so I added more chili pepper and some diced jalapenos.I have also saved some fresh puree for making pumpkin waffles. There may be some cookies, muffins or other baked this coming week.
Tip: Did you know you can use pumpkin in place of eggs, butter and oil, depending on what you are making? There is a good article about it HERE. I am thinking of trying the Pumpkin Alfredo recipe shared on that article.
I put up pumpkin a couple of days ago. I also froze it in bags. I think we're going to have pumpkin pancakes for breakfast tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteDebi, I just made some pancakes too. I used a buttermilk/Einkorn flour recipe. So good!
