Pumpkin spice gnocchi

Happy December!! I’m gonna be honest with you, I was shocked that this recipe worked. This pasta is so delicious and can take you ten minutes to make. I tossed it in a light basil pesto sauce, but you can use whatever you want!


Serves 1-2 people

Ingredients:
   1/2 cup buckwheat flour
   1/2 can pumpkin puree 
   ½ tsp cinnamon
   1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (completely optional, depends on how sweet you want it)

Method: Simply combine all the ingredients into a bowl. Depending on the consistency of your pumpkin puree, your dough may or may not be too sticky to roll. f you're able to roll it, do so into pieces about the size of a tube of chapstick. If you're not able to roll it because it sticks to your hands, take a small spoonful of dough, and use a spoon or fork to pat down the sides of the spoonful until it has a cylinder-like shape. Bring a large bowl of water to a boil, and add your pieces. Don't worry if they lose their shape a little bit upon entering the water! Then, reduce the heat to medium and allow the gnocchi to cook for about 5 minutes, or until the pieces rise to the top of the bowl. Toss in your favorite sauce and enjoy!
