Ingredients

  • 4 Tbsp pumpkin pulp
  • 2 Tbsp vegan cream cheese
  • 1 fresh bread
  • as needed salt & pepper
  • as needed Olive oil for toasting bread in the oven

Instructions

How to obtain pumpkin pulp

  • Simply turn on the oven to 230°C on static function. Then take a whole or already cut pumpkin. Wash the pumpkin if necessary and if it is whole also make holes on the outside with the help of a fork.
  • Place the pumpkin on a baking sheet and place in the oven. Bake the pumpkin for about 1 hour or until soft by poking a fork in it.
  • Then let the pumpkin cool, cut it in half and remove the seeds. Using a spoon, then scoop out all the pulp, which can now be used in your recipe.

To prepare the bruschetta

  • Mix the pumpkin pulp and vegan cream cheese in a bowl. Add salt and pepper if desired.
  • Meanwhile, cut and toast your bread slices (in the oven or in a frying pan). Simply drizzle each slice with olive oil and bake in the oven at 120°C for 15-20 minutes.
  • Put the pumpkin cream in a piping bag and press it by moving it backwards and forwards on the bruschetta.
  • Finely chop the parsley and sprinkle on the canapés. Then add pomegranate seeds for a touch of colour and flavour contrast.

Notes

Tip: If you can, use a piping bag to arrange the pumpkin cream on the canapés. Otherwise spread it with a knife.
