Benefits of Pumpkin (Pumpkin offers several key health benefits)
Fall presents us with a superb superfood in the form of pumpkins.
According to Healthline.com, pumpkins are nutritious and rich in Vitamin-A while also packing lots of antioxidants.
They boost your immunity and will aid you in your quest to lose some pounds.
It’s also high in Vitamin-C, fiber, and Potassium, which definitely helps lower the risk of heart diseases.

The good news is that pumpkins can be incorporated into your diet via numerous creative methods.
Personally, for me, the nostalgia value inherent within pumpkins truly complete the Halloween and Thanksgiving season for me.

Homemade Puree vs. Canned Products
If pumpkins are in season, there is absolutely no reason to go for canned products.
Not only does fresh pumpkin puree taste better, but it also happens to be healthier and free of any additives or preservatives.
You can also tinker with the recipe and add a unique flavor to the mix.
For instance, you can experiment with nutmeg, ginger, cloves or cinnamon, etc.
I found that having a neutral-tasting puree was best for my purposes since I wanted to incorporate it into both sweet and salty recipes.
But if you are using it for a specific recipe go ahead and add your spices directly to the puree.

While the store life of canned products is admittedly longer, your homemade keto pumpkin puree can last quite a while if stored in the refrigerator ( for a week ) or frozen for up to 3 months.
I’m stocking up for the rest of the season by freezing zip lock bags full of delicious keto pumpkin puree. I can’t get enough of it!
