Rula, a volunteer in the South Arm Cooking Club for Seniors shared a recipe which her kids love. It’s Pumpkin Spice Cookies.
The glaze on these Pumpkin Spice Cookies makes a sweet treat.
Here are some notes from Michelle about pumpkin flesh:
- the bright orange colour is due to carotenoids, which fight free radicals
- rich source of Vitamin A which is good for the immune system and eyes
- high in Vitamin C, fiber, magnesium, potassium and zinc
- regular pumpkin consumption may have an anti-inflammatory effect, protect from joint inflammation and arthritis
