Healthy Recipes and Ideas with Canned Pure Pumpkin
Hungry Girl Obsession: Canned Pure Pumpkin!
Canned Pure Pumpkin
⭑ It’s full of natural fiber—great for gut health and satiety.
⭑ It’s loaded with nutrients like beta-carotene, vitamin A, and potassium.
⭑ Its mild flavor and creamy texture work in all kinds of recipes—sweet and savory!
Having trouble finding it at the store? Check the baking aisle! That’s where we usually find it, near the flour, sugar, and spices.
Ways to Use It
Bake into cake! Canned pumpkin can replace eggs and oil in cake recipes, adding moisture without making everything taste like pumpkin. Our legendary Yum Yum Brownie Muffins use just pumpkin and devil’s food cake mix! You can also go full pumpkin spice… or in a totally different direction.Blend it up! Make a pumpkin-spice Frappuccino swap, a creamy pumpkin-pie shake, or even a boozy blended treat.
Go savory! Pumpkin is a surprisingly great way to thicken up soups (like this standout) and chili (classic one here). And this enchilada recipe uses pumpkin in place of refried beans… It totally works!
Add it to oatmeal! Pumpkin + warm spices + oats = fall breakfast perfection. Go for no-cook overnight oats, a creamy yogurt bowl, or baked oatmeal you can make ahead.
