Pumpkin Gnocchi

This colorful gnocchi takes only minutes to make. They are delicious as a main vegetarian dish in a garlic butter sauce or as a side to whatever protein you are serving.

Prep time: 10 MinCook time: 3 MinInactive time: 10 MinTotal time: 23 Min

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 c. flour
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • pinch of nutmeg
  • 1 c. pumpkin puree
  • 1 stick butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 t. dried savory

Instructions

  1. Combine the flour, salt, pepper, and nutmeg in a small bowl. Add the pumpkin puree and stir or work with clean hands until combined.
  2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and knead about 15 times, form into a ball and let rest for 10 minutes.
  3. On the same lightly floured surface divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a rope about 1/2" thick and then cut each rope into 6 pieces.
  4. Press and roll each piece on the tines of a floured fork. Set aside.
  5. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the Gnocchi and cook for about 2 minutes, until they rise to the surface.
  6. While the gnocchi is boiling, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic and savory, reduce heat and allow to cook until the gnocchi has cooked.
  7. Using a slotted spoon or spider remove the gnocchi from the boiling water and put directly into the skillet. Toss and stir until coated. Serve with a sprinkling of Parmesan Cheese, if desired.
