Canned pure pumpkin or pumpkin pie mix? Experts were unanimous ... my mother would buy Libby’s canned pumpkin, use the recipe on the back of the can to make a pie, and we’d finish it up ...
BUT WHATEVER YOU DO, DON’T CONFUSE CANNED PUMPKIN WITH CANNED PUMPKIN PIE MIX. PUMPKIN PIE MIX CAN HAVE ABOUT 48G OF ADDED SUGAR PER CUP, AND PUMPKIN DOESN’T JUST NEED TO BE FOR DESSERT.
But the calories also depend on the pumpkin pie recipe ... Bannan advises using plain canned pumpkin puree rather than canned pumpkin pie mix to control the added sugar in the filling.
