Contrary to somewhat popular belief, canned pumpkin puree isn’t just for pumpkin pie (that’d be pumpkin pie filling, which is totally different!). In fact, it’s an easy, wholesome way to add creaminess and fall flavor to just about anything, sweet or savory—and it can even lend moisture, serving as a replacement for oil in baked goods. Plus, it’s an excellent source of Vitamin A (one can has 250% of what you need in a day!) and a good source of fiber, too. From pumpkin hummus to grain-free brownies, here are seven healthy recipes that take advantage of canned pumpkin puree.

Wow, its very cool! It shoked me, because I didn’t even know that there are so many things you can do with a pumpkin, it’s very cool. Ilove pumpkin so much. I recently bought a lot of pumpkin at a discount and I really liked the idea of making pumpkin curry or pumpkin hummus, it must be so interesting. I had never heard of pumpkin hummus before. I’m just a big fan of hummus and everything healthy, so the first thing I do is make myself such a delicious snack. Thank you! I will try it, really)
