My former co-worker made this for our Fall Harvest pot luck, and it was a huge hit! I didn't think I liked pumpkin too much, but this ends up being so sweet and tender, with carmelized onions...yum!!! I'm posting this, mainly so that I won't ever lose the recipe, again, as that co-worker (Priscilla) is moving to CA! Ingredients:
1 pie pumpkin (i found this at whole foods, mine was 2 1/2 pounds) |
1 large sweet onion |
salt and pepper, to taste |
brown sugar, to taste |
1/2 cup butter, melted |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Peel and slice the pumpkin (removing any seeds and stringy flesh), and the onion.
3. Layer the pumpkin and onion in a small, rectangular baking dish, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4. Repeat the layer, and season.
5. Cover with a layer of brown sugar.
6. Pour melted butter over the top (I think you could use 1/2 to 3/4 stick of butter, to cut back).
7. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes, or longer, until tender and carmelized.
