Pumpkin Puree

Posted on September 30, 2009

Ingredients:

1 sugar, pie, or cheese pumpkin

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).  Cut the pumpkin in half, stem to base. Remove seeds and pulp. Cover each half with foil.  Bake in the preheated oven, foil side up, 1 hour, or until tender.  Scrape pumpkin meat from shell halves and puree in a blender. Strain to remove any remaining stringy pieces. Store in the freezer in freezer safe bags, or use immediately.
