- 1 head cauliflower about 6 cups (see notes above for using frozen cauliflower)
- 2 cups pumpkin puree (we used canned but see above for fresh pumpkin)
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream or cream cheese or sour cream if you prefer
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or 2 cloves roasted with cauliflower
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 4 tablespoons butter or coconut oil or olive oil
- black pepper to taste
Steam or roast cauliflower until tender, about 25-30 minutes or see other methods above.
Place cauliflower into a food processor and pulse until small crumbles.
Add the rest of the ingredients and process and pulse until desired creamy texture and consistency.
Taste and adjust salt and seasonings as needed.
Storage; Once cooked pumpkin is cooled, store the puree pumpkin in an airtight container in the fridge for 7 days or freeze for up to 6 months.

Brenda's Notes:
- If you want even more pumpkin flavor I would suggest adding an additional cup of pureed pumpkin to the mix.
