Pumpkin and cinnamon are the two flavors that most remind me of fall. This 3 ingredient spread is simple and very flavorful.
The pumpkin adds sweetness without the need of sugar and the cream cheese adds a savory depth. It checks the box for my favorite savory-sweet flavor combination and is great to serve during brunch.
Process:
Pre-heat your oven to 350F / 175C. Slice the pumpkin in half and scoop out the guts (you can squeeze the seeds out and toast them in butter, brown sugar, and a touch of salt). Slice the outer skin off of the pumpkin and cube it into 1/2 inch pieces. Toss in a bit of vegetable oil and salt lightly.
Roast the pumpkin in the oven for 20-30 minutes until the pieces are soft. Let it cool off for about 5 mins.
Put the cream cheese into a food processor and add the 1 cup of pumpkin and puree. Sprinkle cinnamon to taste and run the food processor again.
Serve with toast or scones.
Ingredients:
1 cup / 200g Philadelphia cream cheese
1 cup roasted pumpkin
1 sprinkle cinnamon
1-2 T of veg oil to roast the pumpkin
