Does anyone know where you can get canned pumpkin to make pumpkin pie near Brisbane?


Thank you So much.

As far as I know USA foods is the only place in Australia that sells it! But doubt you'll get it in time for Thanksgiving :(

Can u share your pumpkin pie recipe please! I've always heard how nice it is but have tried it!

An American friend recently shared this (http://www.thekitchn.com/thekitchn/ingredients-pantry/canned-pumpkin-what-is-it-really-made-of-069123) with me. Going by the general theory behind the article if you can't find it in time butternut pumpkin should give similar results :)

Food glorious food in David Jones in Adelaide has it - might be worth checking your local DJs.

you can buy pumpkin in a can :eek:

is it sweet - like wiht sugar added? is it very similar to real pumpkin or kinda ;fake'. if its similar to real pumplin but cooked/processed - you could easily roast some sweet butternut pumkin instead?
