Pumpkin Pasta with Cranberry Brown Butter Sage Sauce
Ingredients:
Pasta:
1 15oz can Pumpkin Puree
3 cups flour
1 tsp cloves
½ tsp all spice
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
Sauce:
2 sticks salted butter
1 cup Lighthouse Keeper’s Cranberry Apple Jam
Fresh Sage leaves
Instructions:
In a small bowl, combine pumpkin puree, flour and spices and kneed by hand until the dough forms into an elastic texture. Prepare a pot of salted water and bring to a boil.
Using your hands, roll the dough into a log about ½ thick. Using scissors cut the dough ¼ inch apart and place them on a cutting board, keeping them separate to avoid sticking. Using a fork, press the tines into each piece to create pumpkin like ridges.
Drop the pasta into the boiling water and cook for 3 mins. strain as set aside.
In a sauté pan over high heat, add butter, and allow it to melt and brown, about 5-6 mins. Add fresh sage leaves and cranberry apple jam. Stir to combine. Remove from heat and add in the cooked pasta, toss to combine.
