# Ingredients:

→ Base Ingredients

01 - 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
02 - 1 large egg
03 - 1 tsp salt
04 - 2 cups all-purpose flour

→ Flavor Boosters

05 - 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
06 - 1/4 tsp ground cloves
07 - 1/4 tsp black pepper

→ Finishing Touches

08 - Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
09 - Melted butter or sage brown butter sauce
10 - Chopped fresh sage

→ Make It Special

11 - A drizzle of maple syrup or honey
12 - Crumbled goat cheese

# Instructions:

01 - Dump the pumpkin puree into a large bowl. Crack in the egg. Add the salt and spices. Stir it all together.
02 - Gradually add the flour, about half a cup at a time, stirring with a wooden spoon. Once it gets too thick to stir, get your hands in there! Knead the dough until it's smooth-ish.
03 - Flour your work surface generously. Divide the dough into four parts. Roll each part into a long rope, about 1/2 inch thick. Cut the rope into 1-inch pieces. Roll each piece over the tines of a fork to create those ridges.
04 - Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the gnocchi into the boiling water. They’re cooked when they float to the surface. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
05 - While the gnocchi are boiling, melt the butter in a separate pan. If using sage, add the leaves and cook until the butter is browned. Drain the cooked gnocchi and toss them with the sauce. Top with Parmesan cheese and extra sage. Drizzle with maple syrup or honey, if desired.
06 - Enjoy your cozy bowl of pumpkin gnocchi!

# Notes:

01 - Don't overwork the dough! It’ll make the gnocchi tough. Store leftover gnocchi in the fridge for up to 3 days. If you don't have nutmeg, allspice is a good substitute. Serve with a simple green salad and garlic bread.
