Stat. I promised a friend I would cook some kind of desert involving pumpkins this weekend, before realising that I have no recipes in my meagre student cookbooks that even mention pumpkins.

Post yours here, and I shall pick the worthiest of them all to make a pudding for kings.

Just buy the can and it'll have a recipe on it. And then get lots of reddi whip.

They don't sell cans of pumpkin over here. Also, my friend has the pumpkin and needs to get rid of it, preferably by eating it.

Although I am not the moderator of the Frontroom, I believe I can speak for the staff colleagues when I say that a return to the actual topic would be highly appreciated.

Thanks

That would be nice. Got any pumpkin pie recipes to share, Ser Clegane?

That would be the realm of Mrs. Clegane (not meant as a chauvinistic comment ~;)) - although I do not recall having any pumpkin pie in the past years (they typically end up in a soup in the Clegane household)

Forget pie, try bread (http://allrecipes.com/recipes/bread/pumpkin-bread/).

I can provide a pie crust recipe (involves vodka), but not a pumpkin filling recipe. Sorry.

Bite into raw pumpkin, spray can of reddi whip into mouth.

roast chunks of it with olive oil, salt and black pepper on a baking tray or roasting pan and then use it (after cooling) in salads with rocket / watercress and whatever else you like

Save and roast the seeds as well! Pure yumminess!

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, including ACIN's, but I think we have a winrar:

Forget pie, try bread (http://allrecipes.com/recipes/bread/pumpkin-bread/).

One potential problem - how do I puree a pumpkin?

Cut it in pieces, boil pieces, puree pieces

But why not just serve Greek yoghurt with blueberries and maple syrup geez

oh yummie

Will try that.

I promised my friend that I would actually cook, which means heating up food.

Could it be any easier?

Followed JuJuBee's suggestion of pumpkin bread - for want of a bread tin, we made muffins, and they totally rock. Thanks!

They're pumpkin muffins, made using a pumpkin bread recipe. Being poor/lazy students, we don't have a bread tin, so we improvised. They're really, really good, and there's six less there than we made originally.
