Directions:

  • In a medium pot, add all ingredients (EXCEPT POWDERED GELATIN) and bring to boil, then reduce the heat to simmer for about 20 minutes or until the butternut squash is very tender.
  • Mix powdered gelatin with a cup of water. Let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Add the gelatin water to the ingredients, transfer into a stand blender and puree. Take care not to add too much at once so it does not overflow.
  • Pour the puree back into the pot and continue to simmer for 5 more minutes.
  • Remove from heat and pour into jam jars or molds or pre-baked pie crust. Let cool in the fridge until set. Serve once the pudding sets.
