Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet Maple Ginger Pumpkin Delight.
Step 1
Start by melting the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. As the butter begins to bubble gently, add the fresh pumpkin cubes. Cook them slowly, stirring occasionally, until they become tender and fragrant, which should take about 20 minutes. This step is crucial as it allows the pumpkin to soak up that rich buttery flavor.
Step 2
Once the pumpkin is tender, sprinkle in the white sugar and stir until it dissolves completely. This will create a lovely sweetness that complements the pumpkin perfectly.
Step 3
Next, pour in the maple syrup, and add the minced fresh ginger and ground cinnamon. Stir everything together until well combined, allowing the warm spices to infuse the mixture with their aromatic goodness. After a few moments, remove the skillet from the heat and let it cool down a bit.
Step 4
Transfer the candied pumpkin mixture to a bowl, cover it, and place it in the refrigerator. Allow it to chill for at least 2 hours before serving. This cooling time helps the flavors meld beautifully, making each bite a delightful experience.
