Pumpkin Ideas

Pumpkin Flour

Take non-sugar pumpkins and dehydrate them.  Put in food processor and make flour.  Add up to 1/4 of regular flour.  eg.  1 cup regular flour = 1/4 cup pumpkin flour + 3/4 cup regular flour.  Pumpkin flour is more dense but lower in carbs.

Pumpkin Chili

There are several versions of this online.  They all involve pumpkin puree.  Good way to use it up.

Pumpkin Bread
Use 2 cups Splenda rather than 3 cups of sugar.  Substitute whole-wheat flour for AP flour.  If using homegrown pumpkin puree, add 1/3 cup water instead of 2/3 cup.  Bakes for about an hour rather then the 30 minutes specified in recipe.
