Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Using a very sharp knife cut stem off of pumpkin. Cut in half through where the stem used to be.
  2. Using a melon baller or large spoon remove seeds and surrounding soft, spongy inside. Reserve seeds for roasting separately if desired. Only firm pumpkin meat should be left behind.
  3. Place cut side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil. Roast in oven for 35 to 45 minutes, depending on exact size of pumpkin.
  4. Using a large spoon remove roasted pumpkin from skin. Place in a food processor and puree until smooth.
  5. Chef's Note: Homemade pumpkin puree has a more velvety, butter mouth feel and can be used in equal quantities to replace canned pumpkin puree.
