The Original Pumpkin Pie — From Hearth to Home
Long before canned pumpkin and store-bought crusts, early settlers and Native Americans made pumpkin pie by hollowing out a pumpkin, filling it with milk, honey, and spices, and baking it right in the fire!
This natural, nutrient-rich method celebrated simplicity and whole foods — something we can all benefit from today.
🎃Did you know pumpkin is rich in beta-carotene and antioxidants that support eye health and immunity?
🍯Honey is a natural sweetener packed with enzymes and antimicrobial properties.
🥛 Milk provides calcium, protein, and vitamin D for bone and muscle function.
🌿 Spices like Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Clove help to promote circulation, aid digestion, and support blood sugar balance.
Remember to keep it simple this holiday season and enjoy as many whole foods as you can!
