Yet, even when I double the recipe, I often have some puree leftover.
It ends up stashed, and, sadly, forgotten in the back of the fridge.
Freeze leftovers in containers labeled with the date.
For smaller amounts, freeze the puree in ice cube trays and then transfer to a ziplock once frozen.
Im keeping a list of recipes that I can turn to when I have extra pumpkin to use.
Pumpkin Bread
Similar to muffins, quick breads are well-loved in my family.

It doubles easily, freezes well and will get eaten in record time.
Pumpkin Biscotti
Biscotti is perfect for your mid-afternoon coffee break.
Add cranberries or nuts to the dough or dip in melted chocolate for a decadent option.
Elise Bauer
Store at room temperature for two weeks in an airtight container and enjoy.
Pumpkin Waffles
Waffles are family-favorites that are easy to double and freeze for future hectic mornings.
Cool waffles on a baking rack and freeze them on a baking sheet before moving to a ziplock bag.
Elise Bauer
Rewarm in the toaster on low and serve with applesauce.
