..among the many pumpkin-based recipes, I bet you were missing these! Tasty meatballs with a crispy exterior and soft interior.. with a melty center that will drive you crazy.
Mash the pumpkin with a fork and then add the ingredients. The well-squeezed bread, the egg, salt, nutmeg, and aromatic herbs.
Give it an initial mix and then start incorporating the chickpea flour (or breadcrumbs) until the mixture is workable by hand. At this point, take a small amount of the mixture.
Create a hole in the center to place the cheese and close it up to form the meatball. Roll them in the coating before placing them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and greased with a bit of seed oil.
Bake at 200 degrees for about 15/20 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking.

How did I cook the pumpkin? Before using it, I cut it into cubes and baked it at 180 with ventilation for about 15 minutes. It will become nice and soft, and you can mash it with a fork!
