Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked pumpkin, mashed
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg

Step 1: Prepare the Pumpkin

To make the pumpkin gnocchi, start by cooking and mashing the pumpkin. You can either steam or roast the pumpkin until it’s soft and easily mashable. Remove the skin and any seeds, then mash the pumpkin until smooth. Measure out 2 cups of mashed pumpkin for this recipe.

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the mashed pumpkin, all-purpose flour, beaten egg, salt, and nutmeg. Mix well until the ingredients come together to form a slightly sticky dough. If the dough is too sticky, add a little extra flour. Be careful not to overmix the dough as it can become tough.

Step 3: Shape the Gnocchi

Dust a clean surface with flour and transfer the gnocchi dough onto it. Divide the dough into smaller portions and roll each portion into a long rope, about 1 inch thick. Cut the rope into small bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch long.

Step 4: Cook the Gnocchi

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the gnocchi into the boiling water and cook until they float to the surface, usually for about 2-3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked gnocchi from the pot and transfer them to a plate.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Your homemade pumpkin gnocchi is now ready to be served. You can enjoy them simply tossed in butter and sage or with your favorite pasta sauce. Sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top for an extra kick of flavor. Pair it with a glass of crisp white wine for a perfect autumnal meal.

So there you have it, a delicious pumpkin gnocchi recipe that’s easy to make at home. Impress your loved ones with this seasonal dish that captures the flavors of autumn. Give it a try and let us know how it turns out! Buon appetito!
