Ingredients
2 lbs pumpkin gnocchi (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup unsalted butter
16–20 fresh sage leaves
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to tast
Instructions
Cook pumpkin gnocchi in salted boiling water until they float to the top (2–3 minutes). Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter and add sage leaves. Cook until butter turns golden brown and sage becomes crispy (about 4–5 minutes).
Add cooked gnocchi to the skillet, gently tossing to coat in the brown butter. Season with salt and pepper.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with Parmesan, and serve warm.
