Can I use fresh pumpkin instead of canned puree?

Yes! In autumn, roasted and mashed Hokkaido pumpkin works perfectly and doesn't even require peeling. Just blend or mash it until smooth.

Is this recipe suitable for freezing?

The creamy pumpkin sauce freezes wonderfully in an airtight container for up to 2 months. We recommend cooking fresh pasta when you are ready to serve it.

This super easy pumpkin pasta is ready in just 15 minutes. Mild cream cheese and a pinch of nutmeg make it irresistibly creamy and delicious for little tummies.

For older toddlers and family members, sprinkle a little grated Parmesan cheese and freshly cracked black pepper on top of their portions.
If the sauce gets too thick as it cools, stir in a splash of warm water or milk.
Serve alongside very soft, steamed green beans or broccoli florets for a complete meal.
