Browned Butter Pumpkin Pasta Sauce
This Browned Butter Pumpkin Pasta is an easy and delicious 20 minute meal! With less than 10 ingredients, this dish tastes like it came out of a restaurant but is actually incredibly easy to make.
Ingredients
- 10-15 sage leaves
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb pasta
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 1 minced shallot
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- Grated parmesan cheese for serving
Instructions
- Heat olive oil on medium heat in a large skillet. Fry sage leaves until crispy, about 2 minutes per side. Remove sage from pan and place on a paper towel to drain.
- Cook pasta according to package directions in salted boiling water. Before draining, reserve 1 cup of pasta water. Set pasta aside.
- In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallot, salt, and pepper, and stir butter until it starts to brown, about 3-5 minutes.
- When butter is browned, add pumpkin puree and stir well. Add pasta water 1 tablespoon at a time, until texture is ‘saucy’.
- Add pasta to the sauce, toss, and serve. Serve with parmesan cheese and crispy sage.
Notes
