Thanksgiving baking question - Urgent

[sis. jill]

Okay I have a problem. I opened 2 cans of pumkin and only needed one. I need an idea of what to do with the other can. I do not have any more shells and I have baking powder not soda. Can anyone help????

Sorry, I'm not much of a cook, but I looked up a baking site that had lots of pumpkin recipes.

How about pumpkin bread pudding?

PUMPKIN BREAD PUDDING

4 slices bread
2 tbsp. butter
3 eggs
2/3 c. sugar
2/3 c. pureed pumpkin (fresh cooked or canned)
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. ginger
2 c. whole milk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter bread and cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Place in 6 cups baking dish. Beat eggs slightly and blend in sugar, pumpkin, vanilla and spices. Scald milk. Add slowly to pumpkin mixture. Blend well and pour over bread cubes. Set dish in pan of hot water. Bake 50-60 minutes or until custard is set and bread cubes are slightly brown on top. Serve warm or cold. Serves 6.

This one sounds good!

Maple Pumpkin Pots de Creme

1 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup whole milk
3/4 cup Grade B maple syrup
1/2 cup canned solid-pack pumpkin
7 large egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt

Like a pumpkin custard! Mmmmm!

You can bake it in one big bowl if you don't have the little custard cups. Just set the bowl in a pie plate with water in it and bake for about an hour.

I think I found something. The kids wanted me to fix pancakes for breakfast in the morning. So we will try this:

LIGHT PUMPKIN PANCAKES

In large bowl mix:

2 c. flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. ginger
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. brown sugar, packed
1 tsp. cinnamon

In small bowl, mix:

2 slightly beaten egg whites
1 1/2 c. skim milk
2 tbsp. oil
1/2 c. canned pumpkin

Add small bowl mixture to large bowl. Stir just until moistened. Heat griddle, brush lightly with oil. Pour batter by scant 1/4 cup onto hot griddle. Makes 16 pancakes.

Sounds like a good way to start off Thanksgiving. We're having pumpkin roll for breakfast and it's calling out to me from the refrigerator. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Also, pumkin with milk is good cereal (with some sugar)
