Nutritional values

Pumpkin is full of antioxidants: vitamin C, E and carotene. The trio protects against the cell-damaging effect of so-called free radicals. These reactive oxygen compounds are created during energy production in the body.

If you want to avoid animal products or eat a particularly fat-healthy diet, use a high-quality vegetable margarine suitable for baking instead of butter.
