sugar pumpkin
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and cover a baking sheet with foil.
Cut the pumpkin in half crosswise.
Scoop out the seeds.
Place the pumpkin halves cut side down on the baking sheet.
Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes or until the skin darkens and it can easily be pierced by a fork.
Remove from the oven and let cool.
Remove the skin.
Place one half of the pumpkin in a bowl, blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
Repeat with the remaining pumpkin.
If using in baked goods, place the pumpkin in cheesecloth and squeeze out the excess liquid.
Use the pumpkin puree in a recipe, or freeze it for future use.
