Pumpkin Pone

Suggested Piece: 3 Qt Sauce Pan with Steamer Inset

Ingredients

1 small pumpkin, deseeded (approx. 6 pcs cut length-wise into “smile” shapes)

4 oz. butter (more if desire)

1 cup brown sugar                                          

1 tsp nutmeg                                                     

¼ cup soy milk (or other milk alternative)

½ tsp cinnamon

1-2 dashes of salt (to taste)

1½ tsp vanilla extract

¼ cup raisins (opt.)

Directions

Pour 1 inch of water in the bottom of your 3 Qt Sauce Pan, and set to medium-high heat. Shred pumpkin on #3 cone into your 3 Qt Steamer Inset, discarding the rinds. Place inset into 3 Qt, cover with lid, MEDIUM-CLICK-LOW. Allow pumpkin to cook on low heat for 30 min. Once pumpkin has fully cooked, add the above remaining ingredients. Mash pumpkin to a desired consistency… like mashed potatoes, and serve warm. Pone is an excellent side dish during the harvest holidays. Your family will be thanking you for this one!!!
