How to Make a Sweet Pumpkin Tortilla Pizza
Let me introduce a super simple way to make a delicious sweet pumpkin tortilla pizza at home! It’s perfect for a quick snack or a light meal.
Main Ingredients
- 2 Tortillas
- 1/2 medium Pumpkin
- 80g Pizza cheese
Seasoning for Pumpkin Puree
- 2 Tbsp store-bought spaghetti sauce
- 1.5 Tbsp Honey (adjust according to pumpkin’s sweetness)
- 2 Tbsp Heavy cream (can be substituted with milk)
- 1 Tbsp Butter
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 2 Tbsp store-bought spaghetti sauce
- 1.5 Tbsp Honey (adjust according to pumpkin’s sweetness)
- 2 Tbsp Heavy cream (can be substituted with milk)
- 1 Tbsp Butter
- 1/4 tsp Salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the pumpkin thoroughly under running water. Cut it in half, then use a spoon to carefully scoop out the seeds and pulp. It’s important to remove all seeds for a smooth puree.
Step 2
Fill a steamer with water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, place the prepared pumpkin halves with the green skin side up. Cover and steam for about 15-20 minutes. Steaming with the green side up helps to prevent excess moisture from entering the pumpkin, resulting in a tastier puree.
Step 3
While the pumpkin is still hot, carefully peel off the skin. In a bowl, combine the mashed pumpkin with honey, heavy cream, and butter. Mash and mix everything together with a fork or spatula until smooth and creamy. This creates your sweet and smooth pumpkin puree. Taste and adjust seasoning with more honey or a pinch of salt if needed.
Step 4
Prepare the ingredients for assembly: 2 store-bought tortillas, store-bought spaghetti sauce, and pizza cheese. Having everything ready beforehand will make the cooking process much smoother.
Step 5
Transfer the pumpkin puree into a piping bag or a clean plastic bag. If using a plastic bag, snip off a small corner with scissors to create a nozzle for easy piping. This step will help you create a beautiful pattern on the pizza.
Step 6
Place the two tortillas on top of each other on a baking sheet or pizza pan. Spread the store-bought spaghetti sauce evenly over the tortillas. Make sure to cover the surface all the way to the edges for maximum flavor.
Step 7
Pipe the pumpkin puree onto the sauce-covered tortillas in your desired pattern. You can pipe it in circles, zigzags, or any creative design you like. The sweet pumpkin flavor will add a wonderful dimension to the pizza.
Step 8
Generously sprinkle pizza cheese over the pumpkin puree. Bake in a preheated oven at 180℃ (350℉) for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the tortilla edges are golden brown and crispy. Enjoy your delicious homemade pumpkin tortilla pizza! Adjust baking time based on your oven’s specifications.
