Prep Time: 
60 minutes
Number of Servings: 
Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 1 (2-3 lb) pumpkin, halved, seeded, cut into 1-inch-thick wedges
  • 1 Tbsp oil
  • 2 Tbsp orange juice
  • 12 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Salt
  • 12 cup dried cranberries

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400˚.
  2. Toss pumpkin wedges with oil, orange juice, cinnamon, and salt to taste.
  3. Roast for approximately 45 minutes, or until wedges are tender and starting to caramelize.
  4. Remove wedges from oven and toss with cranberries. Serve.

Notes

Consider roasting the pumpkin seeds after deseeding the pumpkin. Rinsed, dried, and oiled seeds can be roasted in the oven alongside the pumpkin wedges for about 15 minutes, or until the seeds turn golden, stirring every 5 minutes or so.
