Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cook the pumpkin in water for around 30 to 40 minutes. You want it soft enough to be able to mash it.
- 2
When cooked drain the pumpkin in a sieve for a good while. Then mash well making sure there is no lumps.
- 3
Add the mashed pumpkin back into the sieve. The pumpkin will hold a lot of water so you want to lose as much of that water as possible. I used a good amount of kitchen roll to squeeze some of the water out of the pumpkin.
- 4
On a medium to low heat, In the same pan used to boil the pumpkin, add all the above ingredients including the mashed pumpkin.
- 5
Simmer for about 20-25 minutes. Stirring regularly ensuring it's not sticking to the bottom.

When it's cooked through remove the cinnamon sticks
- 7

- 8
Seal and store upto 1 month in a cool dry place.

Pumpkin Pancakes Pumpkin Pancakes
I always hesitate to label anything as “the best”, but these fluffy and delicious pancakes come pretty darn close. The warm pumpkin spice flavor is great for a fall or winter breakfast, but don’t let the season dictate when you make these. You’re an adult. Make them whenever you want. 😜I’ve been making them A LOT. Because they’re THAT good. 🥞 😋This recipe was modified from one that I found on allrecipes.com.#Breakfast #Brunch #Autumn #Fall Chris Gan -
