i happen to love pumpkins

But not always as pie, so this is my take on a stuffed pumpkin for dessert

Pumpkins for dessert

·        1 medium sugar pumpkin

·        2 apples (or 1 apple and one pear), cored and diced

·        1/2 cup walnuts

·        1/2 cup raisins

·        1/2 cup cranberries

·        1/2 stick butter

·        1/4 cup brown sugar

·        1/4 cup apple juice

·        2 teaspoons cinnamon

·        1 teaspoon cloves, ground

·        1 teaspoon allspice, ground

·        1 teaspoon nutmeg

·        1/2 teaspoon ginger

hollow out the pumpkin, removing stringy interior

save seeds for roasting

hydrate the raisins in hot apple juice with butter

just pop the cranberries in the hot liquid

mix all the ingredients together and stuff the pumpkin

bake @ 325 F for  hour in a baking pan to catch any liquid

serve warn with vanilla ice cream
