Ingredients

Scale

1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix pumpkin puree, egg, and salt until smooth. Gradually add flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
On a floured surface, divide dough into pieces. Roll each piece into ropes about ¾ inch thick and cut into one-inch pieces. Use a fork to create grooves on each piece.
Boil salted water in a large pot. Drop in gnocchi and cook until they float (about 3-5 minutes). Remove with a slotted spoon.
In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat and sauté gnocchi until golden brown (5-7 minutes). Sprinkle with Parmesan before serving.
