Microwave the dish on high for around 15-18 minutes.
Remove the water from the dish.
Wait for the pumpkin to be cool enough to handle.
Scoop out the pulp inside the pumpkin.
Use the masher to mash the pulp.
Measure 1 and ¾ cup of mashed pulp.
Put the measured pulp in the large bowl.
Crack two large eggs into the large bowl.
Pack brown sugar into the ¾ cup measure.
Empty ¾ cup measure of brown sugar into the large bowl.
Add one teaspoon of cinnamon into the large bowl.
