I stumbled upon the most beautiful blog the other day.
Manger is breathtakingly gorgeous.
Her food perfect.
The photos stunning.
Her children adorable.
Her dogs – ALL 14 – amazing.
Oh, and did I mention she lives in France.
Kill me now.
Why is this not my life.
Seriously, I want to pack up and move, like yesterday.
I could not stop scrolling through her posts.
Each more beautiful than the last.
I spent hours mesmerized.
All of her dishes were tempting, but her recipe for pumpkin gnocchi …
I had to try it.
I chose to use pumpkin butter in place of the pumpkin puree, and it was delicious.
Slightly sweet, but with the salty brown butter, sage, and a hint of Parmesan – perfection.
Pumpkin Gnocchi
~adapted from Manger
1 cup of pumpkin butter {or puree}
1 egg
1/4 finely grated Parmesan
2 cups of flour
cinnamon/nutmeg if using plain puree
blend together the pumpkin and egg
stir in the cheese
gradually add in the flour
the dough will be sticky
divide into 4 sections
roll each into a rope
slice in 1/4 – 1/2 inch pieces
Brown Butter and Sage
1 stick of butter
melt over med heat
once melted add in 8 – 10 sage leaves (whole)
the sage will become crispy as the butter begins to brown
Cook gnocchi in boiling water
remove promptly when they begin to float
this will only take a few minutes
top with the brown butter and sage
finish with just a sprinkle of grated Parmesan
Enjoy!

Those look SO good. I love gnocchi but have always been afraid to make it!
try it – not as hard as you would think
This gnocchi looks fantastic. Such wonderful fall flavors!
Gnocchi is one of my favorite Italian dishes. I’ve made a butternut squash version before, but the pumpkin intrigues me. Especially trying the pumpkin butter. Stopping by from Fridays Unfolded. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe and the link to Manger. I look forward to paying her a visit!
Your gnocchi looks delicious.
