With Thanksgiving coming up we've been making pumpkin everything around here. Pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin butter...and here's the recipe I promised for pumpkin pasta sauce.

Pumpkin Pasta Sauce

1/2 can pumpkin (about 1 cup)

1/3 cup water

1/3 cup heavy cream

2/3 cup milk

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1/4 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

Whisk pumpkin, milk, water and spices in a medium sauce pan. simmer until heated through. Add heavy cream and mix well. Simmer for a few more minutes. Serve over spaghetti and top with salted pepitas, or toss with penne (or favorite shape of pasta) and top with fresh parmesan. 

Bon appétit!
