Description

Enjoy this Creamy Pumpkin Gnocchi, a perfect fall dish. It’s rich, comforting, and easy to make.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound gnocchi
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh sage leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook gnocchi according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  3. Stir in pumpkin puree, vegetable broth, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add cooked gnocchi to the sauce and toss to coat.
  5. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh sage leaves, if desired.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of olive oil.
  • Add cooked sausage or spinach for extra protein and nutrients.
  • If the sauce is too thick, add more vegetable broth.
