    Pumpkin Desserts

    If fall season has one undisputed icon, it’s the pumpkin. Pumpkin is more than just an ingredient. It evokes memories of holidays and crisp leaves and cool air, a sense of time and history, and a feeling of warmth.

    Where Did “Pumpkins” Get their Name?

    The name is derived from the Greek word “pepon”, which means “large melon”. The French called it pompon, while the British called it “pumpion”. The squash was named pumpkin by the first settlers in the American colonies, and this is the name we still use today!

    Canned vs. Homemade Pumpkin Puree

    There is not much of a difference between canned pumpkin and fresh pumpkin puree, as the ingredients on the back of the can will indicate. It will probably say pumpkin puree or steamed pumpkin puree.

    Fresh foods are generally higher in nutrients than cooked or canned foods. Nevertheless, both fresh pumpkin and canned pumpkin are loaded with nutrients, including potassium, Vitamin A, and iron.


    The canned version has a stronger pumpkin flavor and a silkier texture. It’s also easier to use during a busy holiday season. When using canned pumpkin, you can save time, and honestly, your recipes will taste just as good.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How to soften cream cheese?

    To quickly soften cream cheese, cut it into small pieces and place it in a mixing bowl on the counter. Wrap a dish towel around the bottom of the bowl after it has been dampened with hot water. It should be ready to use in about 20 minutes!

    Can I store pumpkin lasagna?

    This is a dessert that can be prepared a day or two ahead of time. In fact, preparing it and storing it in the fridge overnight before serving it the next day is great. It must sit in the fridge for at least 3 hours before serving.

    What can I substitute for pumpkin spice?

    For 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, substitute ¾ teaspoon cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ginger, allspice, cloves, or nutmeg (whatever you have!)

    Use an offset spatula for spreading the layers and make sure it’s clean before starting a new layer.
