Vegan Creamy Pumpkin Sauce Spaghetti Recipe Ingredients

8 ounces (about 225 grams) of spaghetti
1 cup of pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
1/2 a cup of unsweetened coconut milk (or any other plant-based milk)
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 small onion, finely chopped
1/2 a teaspoon of ground sage
1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
Salt and black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast (optional, for a cheesy flavour)
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Extra virgin olive oil for sautéing

Vegan Creamy Pumpkin Sauce Spaghetti Recipe Instructions

Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat a bit of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the ground sage and ground nutmeg, and sauté for another minute to release their flavours.
Add the pumpkin puree to the skillet, followed by the unsweetened coconut milk. Stir well to combine.
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. If you’d like a cheesy flavour, you can add nutritional yeast at this point. Stir to incorporate all the ingredients.
Simmer the sauce for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and is heated through.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet with the creamy pumpkin sauce. Toss to coat the spaghetti evenly with the sauce.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the pasta to absorb some of the flavours.
Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
Serve your vegan creamy pumpkin spaghetti hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of colour and freshness.
