Homemade Pumpkin Puree

This was my first year baking with fresh pumpkin puree. It made the biggest difference in my Vegan Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins. They were moist and had the perfect amount of pumpkin flavor. People think vegan baking can be difficult but I find it almost easier than baking with eggs and butter. If you combine the right ingredients you can make desserts just as flavorful as a dessert full of butter and dairy! This recipe makes around 4 cups of pumpkin puree so make sure you are ready to be baking multiple pumpkin treats!
