- 2 tsp sage (densely packed)
Instructions
- Prepare the pumpkin and potato by peeling and cubing them. Roast or steam until tender or use canned pumpkin.
- Mash the pumpkin and potato together in a large bowl until smooth.
- Mix the flour and salt into the mashed mixture, kneading gently by hand to form a soft dough.

Notes
For a richer sauce, try tossing your gnocchi in a creamy vegan alfredo made from soaked cashews. You can also freeze the gnocchi for later use.
