Maple-glazed Roast Pumpkin

Ingredients

Half a pumpkin, skin on, cut into wedges (remove and save the seeds for later)
2 Tbs ground cinnamon
3/4 cup olive oil
2 Tbs pure maple syrup
1 garlic clove, crushed
1/4 cup pumpkin seeds, roasted
Salt and black pepper

Method

Preheat the oven to 180 C.

Halve the pumpkin and cut into wedges and large chunks.

In a bowl, drizzle over olive oil, maple syrup and cinnamon and coat evenly.

On a large baking tray, spread pumpkin and season with salt and pepper.

Bake for 40–60 minutes until soft and turning golden brown on the edges.

On a separate baking tray, roast the pumpkin seeds gently at 160 C for 6–8 minutes then leave to cool. Scatter seeds over roasted pumpkin and serve.
