Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ⅔ cups pumpkin (cubed)
  • ⅔ cup starchy potato (cubed)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup flour
  • 2 tbsp vegan butter
  • 2 tsp sage (densely packed)

Instructions

  1. Boil water in a pot and add the cubed pumpkin and potato. Cook until fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
  2. Drain the vegetables and mash them until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
  3. Add salt and flour to the mashed mixture, stirring until it forms a dough. If it's too sticky, add more flour as needed.
  4. Divide the dough into portions, rolling each into ropes about ¾ inch thick. Cut into bite-sized pieces and optionally create ridges with a fork.
  5. Bring salted water to a boil again; drop gnocchi in batches. Cook until they float to the surface, about 2–3 minutes.
  6. In a pan over medium heat, melt vegan butter and sauté sage for about 2 minutes until fragrant. Toss cooked gnocchi in the sauce before serving.
