]]>It’s Versatile
Pumpkin is versatile. It can be added to smoothies or your morning yogurt. You can roast it and add it to pasta or use it in your soups. It is a great side for your protein and can also be used for sweet pies and in other baked goods.
You Can Eat the Seeds
Do not throw away the seeds! They can be roasted and eaten as a healthy snack or added to salads for a boost of nutrients. Pumpkin seeds can also support post-workout recovery, since they have zinc and protein—two important nutrients for after a workout.
It Has Nutrients
Pumkin is a great source of fiber, so it can help you to manage your blood sugar levels, keeping you from getting that afternoon slump after lunch. It also gives you beautiful shiny skin, due to the high amount of Vitamin A and C. Pumpkin also includes beta-carotene which has antioxidant properties to reduce inflammation and fast-track wound healing.

]]>The post How to Make Pumpkin Spice Syrup at Home appeared first on foodisinthehouse.com.
]]>Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix. You can buy canned puree or make it yourself by cooking the pumpkin and then blending it smooth.)
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar (you can play around with brown sugar and maple syrup as well, if you prefer a darker/more molasses-y sweetness)
- 1.5 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice
- If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, you can use individual spices, a few shakes each of:
- Cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, ginger. Optional: allspice, cardamom, anise
Directions
Combine all of your ingredients in a medium saucepan on medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring regularly. Then lower and let simmer until everything is combined and uniform. Keep stirring so it doesn’t burn or stick to the bottom. Let it cool in the pan until it’s ready to be poured into a glass bottle or jar. Depending on your puree, it may be a bit stringy, and if this is the case, you can strain it if you like.
