From a culinary point of view, pumpkin season is one of my favourite times of the year. The humble orange-coloured squash can be used in an incredibly varied way in the kitchen. And one of my favourite ways to prepare them is to pair them with different kinds of cheeses.
This cheesy creamy pumpkin gratin with Feta cream and Gruyère is a must for all pumpkin fans! It's incredibly easy to prepare, which is why this dish is ideal for the evening after a stressful day at work. If you can't find Gruyère, Comté, Emmentaler or Fontina is a good substitute. If you're looking for more ideas to enjoy the pumpkin, I've put together a collection for you here.
| | Sauce |
|---|
- 600 g Hokkaido pumpkin, cut into thin wedges
- 3 Garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- Salt and black pepper
- 1-2 tsp Fresh thyme leaves (plus extra to garnish)
|
- 100 ml Vegetable or chicken stock
- 200 g Feta
- 200 ml Heavy cream
- 100 g Crème fraîche
- Salt and black pepper
- 100 g Gruyère, grated
|
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Wash the Hokkaido thoroughly, then cut through the centre once. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and cut the flesh into wedges.
- Place pumpkins in a baking tray. Mix together the chopped garlic, olive oil, thyme leaves, salt and pepper. Pour over the pumpkins and mix everything well. Leave the pumpkin slices to marinate for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile prepare the sauce. To do this, bring the stock to the boil in a saucepan. Crumble the feta and add to the stock. Allow to melt while stirring constantly. Add in heavy cream and crème fraîche. Season the sauce with salt and pepper.
- Spread the feta cream on top of pumpkin wedges. Sprinkle the grated Gruyère over the pumpkin and sauce. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese have melted and the pumpkin tender. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves.

Thank you for sharing.
Now this is right up my alley, Angie! Cream and pumpkin? Sign me up. Now I want to see if I can find Hokkaido pumpkins around here. I read that they have edible skins. How cool is that?
...I need to see if Hokkaido pumpkins are available here. This sure looks good.
Thank you! I had not heard of Hokkaido pumpkin, but Google tells me it's very similar to kabocha squash.
That sure does look great!
Kathy, Kabocha is green one, Hokkaido and Kabocha are both Japanese pumpkins.
Looks good
Looks and sounds delicious, thanks for sharing!
Take care, have a great day and a happy new week!
Receta con saborcito otoñal, que rica con tanta salsa de queso!
I can't find Hokkaido pumpkin anywhere locally. Do you recommend any substitutes?
Hello! All your dishes look like paintings by great masters. Best regards, have a nice Sunday evening!
A lovely looking dish.
How about kabocha?
Very comforting and lovely. I probably would have diced the pumpkin so that the cream covers it all without spilling around.
This dish looks sooo great!

This looks so yummy. I bet you could even use squash instead of pumpkin to make a delicious dinner side too. Hope you're having a super week.
