Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh or frozen gnocchi (I used pumpkin gnocchi, but plain gnocchi works well too)
- 1/2 pound fresh or frozen butternut squash, cubed
- 2 shallots, roughly chopped
- 2 Granny Smith apples, diced
- 1 pound ground mild Italian sausage, broken up into 1/2 inch crumbles
- 1/4 cup chopped sage
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup pepitas
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a 13 x 9 sheet pan with aluminum foil. Drizzle the foil with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- Scatter the gnocchi, butternut squash, shallots, apples, sausage crumbles, and sage on the sheet pan. Drizzle the ingredients with another tablespoon of olive oil. Use a spoon to toss all the ingredients together.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Take the pan out of the oven and sprinkle with the pepitas. Place back in the oven to bake for 3 to 5 minutes more.
- Serve immediately.
