Pumpkin Pleasures

I had never tasted pumpkin pie till we spent a few years in Tennessee. The sweet tart/pie is popular as part of the Thanksgiving meal and is also very much a seasonal dessert. I also enjoyed making and eating pumpkin muffins, have you ever tried them?

Back in the UK I know tins of pumpkin are much more difficult to find. Preparing for my recent Halloween cookery camp with children I did come across some in Morrisons and the food magazines are definitely talking about sweet pumpkin recipes much more than I remember!
