  • You can substitute pumpkin puree with carrot puree or sweet potato pure. The final result will be as delicious as the original recipe.
  • If you wish to make your own pumpkin puree, you have to put chunks pumping in the oven at 200degrees Celsius for 40minutes. Then, you remove the excess water that has come from the pumpkin and finally, you blend it.
  • You may make this pizza in a vegan version, omitting the cheese or substituting it with another type of vegan cheese.
