I know, I’m spamming y’all with pumpkin recipes this week. Still, I hope you like this one. It sounds good! Especially if you have some fresh sage lying around.
Pumpkin Pasta
Ingredients:
Pasta:
Kosher salt
4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
One 15-ounce can of pure pumpkin puree
Sage Butter:
1 stick (8 ounces) unsalted butter
6 fresh sage leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Dust a baking sheet with flour.
For the pasta: Put the flour and pumpkin puree in a food processor and pulse in short bursts until the mixture comes together and a dough forms, about 1 minute.
Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface. Divide into 4 equal pieces. Roll and cut the pasta to the desired thickness using a rolling pin or a pasta machine. Cut into the desired shape, transfer to the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with flour (this keeps the pieces from sticking together). Cover the pasta with plastic wrap for up to 4 hours if you are not cooking right away (see Cook’s Note).
Cook the pasta until tender but not mushy (there shouldn’t be a line of raw flour in the center), 2 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness and shape. Drain thoroughly.
For the sage butter: Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sage and cook, stirring occasionally, until the leaves are crispy and the butter begins to brown slightly and has a nutty aroma. Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss vigorously to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
Cook’s Note
You can also freeze the pasta right on the baking sheet until hard. Pack into resealable plastic bags and freeze for up to a month. 
)- I imagine it takes a while to put together but it sounds really yummy!

I imagine pasta would be just as creatively shaped… gonna have to see about getting a pasta maker in the future 
Gosh, a little creativity really can solve just about everything
