What is Pumpkin Spice?
Pumpkin Spice is simply a combination of wonderfully warm spices that just scream fall and holiday baking. It usually comprises of ground spices such as nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and allspice.
Canned Pumpkin VS Pumpkin Purée
Canned pumpkin is often cooked, spiced and sweetened before canning. Pumpkin puree is fresh pumpkin cooked and pureed. I have used both fresh and canned for my pumpkin recipes with equal success. One thing to remember with canned Pumpkin is that it usually sweetened, always check the ingredients of the label and taste. If it is too sweet, you might want to adjust the recipe accordingly. If you use fresh pumpkin, make sure you know what you’re doing. Fresh pumpkin can be quite watery if not done well and this will affect your recipe.
