Roasted Pumpkin Wedges with Hot Honey

Roasting pumpkin not only brings out its natural sweetness, it also develops a creamy texture. Top it off with hot honey, and you have a unique way to serve pumpkin! Hot honey, which is infused with chiles, can be found next to the regular honey at the grocery store, or feel free to make your own using one of the many recipes found online. The peel can easily be removed once cooked.

Ingredients

  • 1 (3 pound) pie pumpkin

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 3 tablespoons hot honey (such as Mike's Hot Honey®)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Cut stem off pumpkin. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Carefully cut pumpkin in half vertically and scrape out seeds. Cut each half into 6 wedges, about 1 1/2 to 2 inches wide.

  3. Place wedges on their sides on the baking sheet and brush with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  4. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Flip wedges over and brush with remaining olive oil, then sprinkle with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Roast for 15 minutes more.

  5. Remove from the oven and place on a serving platter. Drizzle with hot honey and serve.
