Description

A savory-sweet roasted pumpkin dish topped with tangy feta, crunchy walnuts, and a vibrant cranberry-honey glaze.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 small sugar pumpkin, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss pumpkin cubes with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Spread pumpkin in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes, until tender and caramelized.
  3. While pumpkin roasts, toast walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until fragrant. Set aside.
  4. In a small saucepan, combine cranberries, honey, and balsamic vinegar. Simmer for 5 minutes until cranberries are plump and glaze thickens slightly.
  5. Arrange roasted pumpkin on a serving platter. Top with crumbled feta, toasted walnuts, and drizzle with cranberry-honey glaze. Garnish with fresh thyme.
