    Pumpkin Puree Recipe

    If you think of halloween the first thing which comes to your mind is pumpkins which plays a crucial part. The most important and familiar stuffs like cakes , cupcakes and many more has pumpkins in it. So I thought of making the same and show you here. The first thing which I made is a huge batch of homemade easy pumpkin puree. Many people roast pumpkin and make puree out of it. But somehow I am not in the mood, so I took the easy way and made it by steaming. I would recommend you to give this a try because it makes life so easier.

     

    So make this batch immediately so that we can go ahead and make pumpkin pancakes, waffles, cupcake, cakes and many more in the coming days.
