    How To Make Oven Roasted Pumpkin?

    1. Spread pumpkin slices on baking tray- Make sure they are spaced.
    2. Add oil and seasoning- Toss until combined.
    3. Bake- Until wedges are tender and cooked through.
    4. Enjoy- Garnish with fresh herbs and dig in!

    What To Serve With Oven Roasted Pumpkin?

    Serve this with traditional Thanksgiving proteins/meats like Easy Thanksgiving Turkey (One Pan) or Roast Turkey Breast (One Pan) or this Slow Cooker Ham.

    It will also be delicious with other chicken and beef such as Cajun Chicken (One Pot) or Creamy Lemon Garlic Chicken (One Pan) or Lemon Pepper Chicken (One Pot)

    Serve it alongside beef such as these Garlic Butter Steak Bites (One Pot) or Roast Beef (One Pot) or grilled sausages.

    Leftovers are also a great addition to salads, soups, pasta, or risotto. The possibilities are endless!

    Storage

    Refrigerate- In a sealed container for up to 2 days.

    Freeze- If you puree it, it freezes very well! I don't recommend freezing these wedges because they won't be crisp upon thawing.

    Reheat- In the microwave or in the oven, but it won't have the same texture as when roasted the first time.

    Variations For Baked Pumpkin

    Maple/Honey roasted pumpkin- Drizzle the wedges with either for a sweet flavor.

    Whole roasted pumpkin- This will take longer so adjust your time accordingly.

    Roasted pumpkin puree- Roast the pumpkin according to the recipe and then puree it in a blender. It is great in soups, oatmeal, bread, or pie.

    Use different spices and seasoning- Such as nutmeg, all spice, cardamom, ginger, or even use a pumpkin pie spice blend.

    Make it spicy- Add crushed red chili flakes or a dash of cayenne pepper.

    Add cheese- Sprinkle the wedges with fresh shredded Parmesan, mozzarella, or even with goat cheese at the very end.

    Garnish options- Try dried cranberries, bacon crumbles, or toasted nuts such as pine nuts, pecans, or walnuts, pistachios, almonds.

    Tips And Techniques

    What is the best pumpkin for roasting? I recommend using a small Hokkaido pumpkin that is washed and cut into 1.5 inch wedges with the seeds removed. No need to peel it. They taste the best! Butternut pumpkins are also a good choice.

    Can you roast a carving pumpkin? No, because they do not have a good flavor or texture.

    Pumpkin slices/wedges vs. pumpkin cubes- Either shape works just fine.

    How do I know when pumpkin is done baking/roasting? Bake at 400 degrees F for 25-30 minutes or until they are soft but firm. Keep a close eye on it after 20 minutes. In my experience, ripe pumpkins tend to bake faster.

    Oil the pumpkins completely- This allows them to caramelize and prevents them from sticking to the baking tray.

    Best served immediately- They will never be as crispy and firm as they are when they are first made.

    Adjust seasoning- Add more or less of whatever you prefer.

    Space out the pumpkin slices on your tray- Because this allows them to bake evenly.
