Step 1

Remove the seeds from the pumpkin and cut it into slices.

Step 2

Ease down the pumpkin slices on a piece of parchment paper and then put it into the oven. Bake the pumpkin for about 20 minutes, until it gets soft. This time might change depending on how big your pumpkin slices are. When it is done, let the pumpkin cool down for ten minutes.

Step 3

Remove the skin from the pumpkin and put the pulp into a large bowl. Smash the pumpkin with a fork.

Step 4

Add the ricotta, grated parmesan, salt, pepper and nutmeg to the bowl. Use a spatula to mix everything.

Step 5

While mixing start adding some flour. Keep adding flour until the mixture is dense and not too much sticky. The amount of flour depends on how much watery is the pumpkin.

Step 6

Once the mixture is ready, prepare the gnocchi. Shape them as you prefer, using about 10g of mixture for each one.
