How to Store Leftover Pumpkin Puree or Pumpkin Pie Filling
Have leftover pumpkin puree or pumpkin pie filling from a recipe you prepared for your family?
Proper storage is key to keeping it fresh and flavorful for future use. Here's how to store both in the refrigerator and freezer.
Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
Freezer: Portion into airtight containers or freezer bags (remove excess air), label and date, and freeze flat for up to 6 months (1 year for safe storage). Thaw in the refrigerator overnight when ready to use.
Don't forget to label!
Clearly label the container with the contents and the date you froze it. This will help you keep track of what you have and how long it's been in the freezer.
- Freezer-Resistant: These labels for food containers, with strong adhesive, are designed to prevent peeling off in low temperatures in the fridge; they are waterproof, oilproof, tear-resistant, and remain intact even in the dishwasher
