Baked Pumpkin

Here is a yummy side, but then again I love anything pumpkin, so maybe I am biased!



Baked Pumpkin

Ingredients:
1 sm. pumpkin
2 Tablespoon apple cider
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
2 Tablespoon. honey
2 Tablespoon melted butter

Directions:
1. Wash pumpkin well and place on a pie pan. Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 1/2 hours. Remove from oven and cut a hole in the top of the pumpkin 3 to 4 inch diameters. Scoop out pulp and seeds.
2. Mix together the honey, cider and melted butter. Baste the mixture over the flesh of the pumpkin.
3.  Replace top, return to oven and bake 30 to 40 minutes more, basting occasionally.
4. Cut into wedges and serve with leftover basting mixture.

Note: For an equally yummy variation, try tossing in some macintosh apple slices that have been washed, peeled, cored, and sliced.  Or you can also try squash and sweet potatoes mixed in with it!
