PUMPKIN PANNA COTTA

FOOD AS MEDICINE

Pumpkin is a rich source of Vitamin A (200% of your daily need in one cup) in the form that best protects your vision. The soluble fiber and zinc in pumpkin play a role for blood sugar and insulin regulation while the phytosterols in the seeds aid in lowering your bad cholesterol levels. The abundance of antioxidants serve to scavenge free radicals while protecting against oxidative damage and decrease inflammation in the body. This light and fluffy gelatin treat uses full fat coconut milk to aid with satiety and prevent blood sugar spikes while the gelatin is an awesome therapeutic for prevention of leaky gut!

INGREDIENTS

1 can full fat coconut milk

1/2 cup pumpkin puree

1 Tbsp pasture raised gelatin

2 Tbsp raw local honey (optional, omit for keto)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1/4 tsp ground cloves

1/4 tsp ground ginger
