It’s that time of year again where I can share a post about my favourite part of Autumn… Pumpkins! Last Autumn I shared with you the joys of Pumpkin picking, but for this post, I’m going to share with you some ideas on how you can make the most out of your Pumpkin this Halloween.
A few years ago, I discovered there is so much more to Pumpkin that carving, they are actually incredibly delicious! Better still, they are versatile too and can be used to make a range of hearty dishes. So, when you are carving out your pumpkin, why not save some of the fleshy inside for the following recipes:
My favourite, Pumpkin Pie: Pumpkin pie is a yummy dessert with a pumpkin based custard filling. The perfect Autumn treat that also fills your house with lovely aromas when baking!
