If you have leftover pumpkin, there are many ways to use it up. Here are some ideas from various sources:

• Baked goods: Pumpkin puree can be used in a variety of baked goods, such as muffins, bread, cupcakes, and cheesecake. Check out websites like Sallys Baking Addiction and The Seaside Baker for recipes.

• Savory dishes: Pumpkin can also be used in savory dishes, such as pasta, curry, and soup. The BBC Good Food website has a collection of 21 leftover pumpkin recipes, including pumpkin pasta alla vodka and pumpkin curry with chickpeas.

• Other ideas: Other ideas for using up leftover pumpkin include making pumpkin hummus, adding it to oatmeal or smoothies, and roasting pumpkin seeds. Camille Styles suggests freezing leftover pumpkin puree in tablespoon-sized portions for later use.

No matter what you decide to make with your leftover pumpkin, be sure to store it properly. Fresh or leftover canned pumpkin puree lasts for about 1 week in the refrigerator. If you want to keep it longer, transfer it to an airtight container and freeze it for up to 3 months.
