Why This one

a few words from me

Marzipan is a confection consisting primarily of sugar or honey and almond meal, sometimes augmented with almond oil or extract. My recipe is replacing part of the sugar with pumpkin puree, making it healthier and moister

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

INGREDIENTS

Ingredients:

half fresh pumpkin

1/2 kg almond flour

200 grams coconut sugar

3 tbsp chia seeds,1tbsp cinnamon

1 tbsp nutmeg

1 tbsp cloves

1tbsp ginger

1 tbsp allspice

1 tsp mace

THE how to make

INstructions

Pumpkin puree

1.Scoop out the seeds and most of the stringy bits. Lightly season the inside of the pumpkin halves with salt then place cut-side-down onto the baking sheet.

2.Bake until the pumpkin can easily be pierced with a knife in several places and the flesh is pulling away from the skin, 45 to 60 minutes.

3.Cool until you can safely handle the halves

4.Scoop out the soft flesh into a food processor — depending on how large the pumpkin is, you may need to do this in two batches.

5.Add all spices, coconut sugar and process until very smooth, 3 to 5 minutes.

6.Mix pumpkin puree with almond flour. If is to wet add more almond flour, transfer to a small square tray and let it sit for a couple of hours.

7.Cut in squares or rectangles, decorate with desiccated coconut and vegan chocolate.
