Fall is in the air and so I’m in my kitchen making all things pumpkin. Pumpkin is a low calorie, nutrient dense food that is an excellent substitute for oil in baked goods. Try adding some pumpkin puree to soups to make them creamy instead of using cream or milk, and to desserts to make them healthy.

A cup of canned pumpkin provides 71 grams of dietary fibre and is chock full of vitamin A, iron and vitamin E.

Adding chocolate flavoured fermented protein powder to this recipe ups the nutritional value and aids in digestive health.

This chocolate pumpkin chai pudding is naturally sweetened with medjool dates and was a real hit in our household.

I’d love to hear in the comment section below what your favourite way of using pumpkin is and how you enjoyed this recipe.
