  • Take the syrup off heat, and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. 
    Optionally, strain through a fine mesh sieve to remove some of the pumpkin.

    Since this syrup contains real pumpkin, some sediment may appear as it rests in the fridge. Shake syrup before using.

Notes

Yields: About 1 ½ cups syrup.  
Homemade pumpkin purée works perfectly, but make sure you've puréed it in a food processor to make it as smooth as possible.
