Are you looking for a unique twist on the classic Italian dish, gnocchi? Look no further than pumpkin gnocchi! In this recipe, we will show you how to make a mouthwatering batch of pumpkin gnocchi without using potatoes. Let’s get started!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups of pumpkin puree
  • 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • ½ teaspoon of nutmeg

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, beaten egg, salt, and nutmeg. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.

2. Gradually add the flour to the pumpkin mixture, about half a cup at a time. Stir well after each addition until a soft dough is formed. The dough should be slightly sticky, but not overly wet.

3. Dust a clean surface with flour. Transfer the dough onto the floured surface and knead it gently for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Be careful not to overwork the dough as it may result in tough gnocchi.

4. Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion into a long rope about 1 inch thick. Use a sharp knife to cut the rope into individual gnocchi pieces, about 1 inch in length. If desired, you can create ridges on the gnocchi by rolling them gently over the back of a fork.

5. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the gnocchi into the boiling water and cook them for about 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface. This indicates that they are cooked through.

6. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked gnocchi to a plate. Repeat the process until all the gnocchi are cooked.

7. Serve the pumpkin gnocchi with your favorite sauce, be it a butter sage sauce, a tomato-based sauce, or a creamy alfredo sauce. Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs, if desired.

8. Enjoy your homemade pumpkin gnocchi without potatoes! The delicate flavor of pumpkin combined with the pillowy gnocchi texture will surely impress your taste buds.

Remember to experiment with different sauces and toppings to create your own unique twist on this delicious recipe. Serve it as a main dish or as a delightful side to complement your favorite Italian meal. Buon appetito!
