Morgane's tips

You can easily make pumpkin puree yourself. Simply slice a butternut in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.
Place the halves with their skin up on a baking tray with parchment paper and roast for 55 minutes on 190 degrees Celsius.
Let it cool, scoop out the pumpkin meat and blend in a food processor until smooth.
