Ingredients

• 3 1/2 to 4 pound pie pumpkin
• 1 cup water

Directions

• Remove the stem from the pumpkin.
• Place the rack or a steamer basket in the bottom of the pressure cooker. Add 1 cup water.
• Place the pumpkin on the rack/basket. Make sure the lid can close without touching the top of the pumpkin.
• Seal the pressure cooker and cook on high pressure for 13 minutes.
• Let the pressure naturally release.
• Carefully lift the pumpkin out of the pressure cooker (use the handles of the rack) and place on a cutting board or plate. Let cool until it is easy to handle.
• Slice the pumpkin in half, remove the seeds and goop, and peel off the skin.
• Blend the soft pumpkin in a blender or food processor until smooth, adding a tablespoon of water, if needed to help it along (dont add too much water!).
• Store in the refrigerator or freezer until ready to use.
