Ingredients

4 servings

2 lb sugar pumpkin or kabocha squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1-inch cubes (about 5 cups raw)
3 tbsp garlic-infused oil, divided
½ tsp salt, plus more to taste
¼ tsp black pepper, plus more to taste
4 scallions, green tops only, thinly sliced
1 tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground ginger
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
3 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
½ cup heavy cream
1 tbsp maple syrup

For serving

pumpkin seeds (pepitas), toasted (optional)
fresh chives or scallion greens, thinly sliced (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the pumpkin cubes on a large baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the garlic-infused oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, then toss to coat evenly.
2
Roast the pumpkin for 25–30 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the cubes are tender when pierced with a fork and the edges are golden brown.
