Pumpkins have it all - when it comes to vitamins, they score points above all with vitamin C and folic acid, when it comes to minerals, with potassium. The biggest plus: the cell protector beta-carotene.

Should it taste sweet? Then prepare the gnocchi with apples instead of pumpkin and with hazelnuts instead of pumpkin seeds.

Preparation

Preparation steps

1.

Finely grate pumpkin pulp and place in a bowl.

2.

Add dumpling dough and 130 ml (approximately 1/2 cup) water to pumpkin. Knead with your hands and add water if needed. Lightly season dough with salt and pepper and let rest for 10 minutes.

3.

Meanwhile heat oil in a large skillet. Add tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.

4.

Simmer tomatoes over medium heat. Mix in honey and keep warm.

5.

Coarsely chop pumpkin seeds. Melt butter in a pan, add pumpkin seeds and roast for about 2 minutes. Grate Parmesan cheese on the fine holes of a box grater. Bring salted water to a boil in a large pot.

6.

Knead dumpling dough and shape into balls about 2 cm (approximately 3/4 inch) in diameter with moistened hands. Flatten each gnocchi with a fork while holding in the palm of your hand.

7.

Drop gnocchi into boiling salted water. Reduce heat and cook until gnocchi rise to surface, 2-3 minutes.

8.

Remove gnocchi with a slotted spoon and drain well. Pour pumpkin seed butter over gnocchi, sprinkle with Parmesan and serve with tomato sauce.
