Roast pumpkin with cinnamon

Serves 6

Preparation: 5 minutes Cooking time: 45 minutes Oven temperature: 180°C

• 12 slices unpeeled pumpkin, seeds removed • 125ml butter

• 125ml brown sugar

• 15ml ground cinnamon (or to taste)

• a sprinkle of coarse salt

• about 15ml fresh lemon juice (optional)

1 Preheat the oven. Arrange the pumpkin slices in an ovenproof pan lined with baking paper. Dot with butter, sprinkle with sugar, cinnamon and salt, and drizzle with the lemon juice.

2 Roast the pumpkin for 30 minutes until it starts to caramelise. Turn the pieces over and bake for another 15 minutes or until the pumpkin is cooked through and caramelised. If your slices are thick, cover them with foil for the first half hour, otherwise they will take longer to cook.
