Delicious recipe - my kids loved them. I added sweet potato and potato to the mix, and used wholemeal flour which gave it a little extra crunch. Great way to get kids to eat their veges!

I don't know what sort of pumpkin I bought but it was torture to clean and cut it. However, the finished product was good; sweet and savoury at the same time. But it's a little too ordinary for a meal. Great as a snack while watching TV or reading a book.

My husband and I grew blue pumpkins in our garden this year and I have been looking for pumpkin recipes ever since. I made this dish for 2 Thanksgiving dinners that I attended and everyone LOVED it so much. Thank you for posting such an easy and delicious recipe!!!

Ok, if you like pumpkin, this is really good. My family didn't like pumpkin, their loss! A great way to use fresh pumpkin.......

I was quite impressed with this simple idea. It really was quite good. Even my fussy 9 year old liked it. It is sweet and very filling because of the fiber. I will make it part of our regular meals.

Easy to make. Healthier alternative to homemade fried potato.
