Ingredients
  

1 cup pure pumpkin puree (canned or fresh)

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 pound fettuccine pasta

Fresh sage leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1 cup of the pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta and set aside.

    Make the Sauce Base: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, but not browned.

      Add Pumpkin and Cream: Stir in the pumpkin puree and mix well. Slowly add the heavy cream, stirring continuously to combine the ingredients.

        Season the Sauce: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon. Allow the sauce to simmer gently for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

          Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet with the pumpkin Alfredo sauce. Toss the pasta to fully coat it in the sauce, adding splashes of the reserved pasta water as needed to achieve your desired consistency.

            Serve: Plate the creamy pumpkin Alfredo pasta and garnish with fresh sage leaves for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
