What is pumpkin puree?
Pumpkin puree is easily and commonly found in most US grocery stores.
It’s just pureed pumpkin in a can – easy, right?
But, don’t confuse it with pumpkin pie filling. That is a whole different beast!
If you can’t find canned pumpkin you can always make your own using my handy homemade pumpkin puree recipe!
Can I use something besides walnuts?
Sure! If you’re not a walnut fan you can easily substitute with pecans, hazelnuts, or even almonds.
My personal favorite in this recipe is pecans!
