What it is

Pumpkin powder is made from dried, ground pumpkins. The pumpkins are typically cooked, pureed, and then dehydrated to remove moisture before being milled into a fine powder. This process concentrates the flavor and nutrients of the pumpkin.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use pumpkin powder to add a natural pumpkin flavor, color, and nutrients to food products. It is commonly found in baked goods like cookies, cakes, and muffins, as well as in breakfast items such as oatmeal and pancake mixes. It can also be used in beverages like lattes and smoothies.

Health notes

Pumpkin powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of vitamins and fiber. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated pumpkin and its components, but specific evaluations for pumpkin powder may vary. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming pumpkin powder in typical amounts found in food.

Allergen info

Pumpkin is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
