Honey pumpkin on crispy toast

Ingredients for 2 servings:

• 1 Hokkaido pumpkin(s)
• 2 garlic cloves
• 5 tbsp olive oil
• 3 tbsp honey, liquid
• 1 pinch of salt
• 4 slices of toast
• butter

Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 55 minutes

Preheat the oven to 200°C (top/bottom heat) or 180°C (fan oven). Halve the pumpkin and scrape out the seeds, which can be dried and used in another recipe. Cut the pumpkin into approximately 2 cm thick slices. Place these next to each other on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Sprinkle the unpeeled garlic cloves between them for flavor. Mix the olive oil with the honey and a pinch of salt to create a smooth marinade and spread this evenly over the pumpkin and garlic. Bake in the preheated oven on the middle shelf for approximately 25 minutes. Before serving, toast the slices of toast until crispy and brush with butter while still warm. Arrange the baked pumpkin slices on the toast and serve warm. A salad goes well with this. If you like it, you can eat the tender, cooked garlic cloves with it. Very aromatic, but it’s a matter of taste.
