Recipe Tips

Use 100% pumpkin puree to get the most nutrients without anything added. Here I used Libby’s 100% Pure Pumpkin. Pumpkin puree is good 3-4 days after opening for any leftovers. When reheating, you may need to add a small amount of water or almond milk if it becomes thick after refrigerating.
