Easy-Peasy! I wish I'd known of this method years ago. I wouldn't have been intimidated by using up the lovely pumpkins we grew!
To bake the pumpkin, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds and threads, and place it cut side down in a baking pan.
Add about 3/4 of an inch of water.
Bake at 350* until a knife pierces the skin and flesh easily.
It takes about 1 1/2 hours in my oven.
Parts of the skin may be blackening. No worries, if the flesh gets a little dark, I just scrape that part off before using.
After cooling, scoop out the flesh for whatever recipe you're using.
