This recipe also works for any kind of squash or sweet potato puree. For sweet potatoes, just wash ’em, stick ’em on a pan in the oven, and wait ’til they’re tender. My other favorite purees, plantain and date paste, pretty much just go into a blender without any cooking. Anyway, this is a pretty easy, fool-proof way to get high-quality veggie purees for soups, pies, pancakes, etc… no more worries about canned stuff!

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.

  • When cool, remove the skin, and puree the flesh in a blender. Use or freeze the puree.
