Step-by-Step Instructions for Pumpkin Feta Pasta
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until transparent and slightly golden, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and fresh sage to the skillet, stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in canned pumpkin puree, cooking for 2-3 minutes to meld flavors.
- Pour in heavy cream and grated parmesan cheese, stirring until smooth and fully combined.
- Season sauce with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes, letting it simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- In a pot, cook pasta in salted water until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Reserve ½ cup pasta water before draining.
- Combine drained pasta with the creamy pumpkin sauce, tossing gently to coat.
- Fold in half of crumbled feta cheese and drizzle melted butter on top.
- Garnish with remaining feta and toasted pumpkin seeds, then serve hot.
