Recipe by: Millie Othman Stir together dry ingredients and spices in a big bowl Cream butter and honey. Beat in egg until smooth. Stir in mashed pumpkin.(texture will look funny). Add dry ingredients to pumpkin mixture, blend together, then stir in nuts and dried fruit. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto an oiled cookie sheet. Bake at 160ºC or 15 minutes, or until golden. For pumpkin bars, use 8x8 oiled pan, bake 180ºC or 25 minutes... You can substitute yams or winter squash for the pumpkin if you wish. Millie Othman ----
