This easy, creamy pumpkin sauce tossed with your favorite pasta for a quick, warm, and comforting weeknight dinner. It's utterly delicious and perfect for Fall. I use Hokkaido pumpkin, but kabocha or butternut squash would do just great. Top with some bacon or walnuts if you like.

- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Combine cubed pumpkin, garlic cloves and thyme sprigs with olive oil in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Spread out on a baking sheet. Bake until pumpkin is very soft and has browned slightly, about 25 minutes.
- Cook pasta in a large saucepan of boiling, salted water, following packet directions, until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain in a colander.
- Reserve about 1/3 of cubed pumpkin. Place the remaining roasted pumpkin and garlic cloves in a saucepan together with homemade broth, cream, white balsamic and spices. Use an immersion blender process until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add more broth or noodle water if mixture is too thick.
- Stir the drained pasta and chopped parsley into the sauce. Divide the pasta in two plates. Shave some Parmesan over. Enjoy!

La calabaza entra dentro de mis vegetales favoritos, aunque la consumo todo el año, en esta época es cuando más rica está y por eso la preparo de cantidad de formas. Esta pasta me parece sencillamente deliciosa.

What a perfect fall meal! I want this for dinner tonight.
...a great autumn dish.
now this is the best fall recipe of the year wow I love it! Nice job!
Sounds delicious I love Pumpkin so much!!
That totally says Fall and totally says yum!
Looks delicious with yummy creammy pumpkin sauce. Botanic and dairy good together.
Sounds like a good sauce.
Ohhh nice, I never had tried suace like this on a pasta. Looks really good
Gracias por la receta, se ve muy rica. Te mando un beso
That looks nice but for me not filling, would have to have meat as well.
I love pasta, no matter how it comes, but that pumpkin sauce sounds delicious, extra hearty and warming for this time of year. I do enjoy a slightly 'cheesy' topping too, so bring on the Parmigiano-Reggiano!
Thanks for the suggestion and the lovely presentation! :)
Buonissima questa pasta😋😋
Looks delish!
I'd love to try this.
This is a delicious looking pumpkin and pasta meal.
Thank Thanks. Very good proposal for those of us who like pasta.
Gracias Angie! Una muy buena propuesta para quienes nos gusta la pasta.
It defo is a time of the year for Hokkaido.
Mixing milk with vinegar sounds like a potential kitchen disaster, doesn't it curdle the milk? I think I'd rather just use sour cream.
Great dish Angie and one we enjoy in the autumn as well. But, your recipe has a few ingredients I've not used in a winter squash pasta. As Hokkaido is a fav and now available in our markets, I see this on the table soon.
I love this! I especially love that you baked/roasted those ingredients first. I usually just use a container of pumpkin or other squash for a sauce, but your way is way more flavorful! Thanks!
I made something similar last year and can't find my recipe for it. This sounds super. I am thinking you could substitute butternut squash for the pumpkin?
Ce plat doit être délicieux
I made pasta recently with butternut squash but I think I like your recipe better. I am going to try this preparation the next time.
Pumpkin and pasta is a great combo! And so seasonal. This looks delish -- thanks.
good morning, this recipe sounds really good-something I would enjoy as I love pumpkin. Happy mid week
I love it!!...the color of this dish is fantastic!...I love the combination of flavors!.......Abrazotes, Marcela
Mind blowing recipe
Sounds and looks delicious.
You can't go wrong with a good pasta dish! It looks delicious
What a tasty & great idea.
I love pumpkin-based sauces - they add to pasta such a silky and smooth texture. This dish looks stunning. For myself (But mostly for Daisy LOL), I would also add some crispy prosciutto or pancetta :)
Those pasta look delicious!
Smooth and creamy pumpkin pasta sauce made from scratch.
Oh my God darling I have saved so many of your recipes
This looks delicious
Looks yummm.....
I love cooking with pumpkin, so I think that your creamy pumpkin is a perfect partner for the pasta
La mia adorata zucca, ottimo piatto!!!!
This looks and sounds so delicious! I actually have everything I need to make it (butternut squash instead of pumpkin) so I am making it tonight!

I'm beyond excited to try this luscious sauce, Angie! Such a perfect autumn meal.
p.s. Amen to that Joan Gussow quote!
A sauce for pasta different from those already known. I think it is a success, I will try it.
You had me at pumpkin. Love it.
Yum Angie, I have a pumpkin alfredo dish on my bucket list this month, I must make it this weekend!

Angie, What an interesting and intriguing recipe! It looks great and its something new for us. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
Your pumpkin posts are to die for!
I'm loving all the winter squash recipes around at the moment. Your pasta sounds simple and delicious.
Love the golden and creamy pumpkin sauce for the pasta.
