Pumpkin Puree

Pumpkin Puree

EverydayCooked

Pumpkin puree is a smooth, cooked preparation made by steaming or roasting specific pumpkin varieties like sugar pumpkins, then blending the flesh into a velvety consistency. This nutrient-dense puree provides significant vitamin A from beta-carotene and dietary fiber, while remaining low in calories and fat. A pantry staple in baked goods and soups, it differs from pumpkin pie mix by containing no added sugars or spices, making it suitable for both sweet and savory applications. The shelf-stable canned version retains most nutritional value, though homemade preparations allow control over texture and moisture content.
