Creamy Roast Pumpkin and Pine Nut Pasta Bake

By August 23, 2018

We made this pasta bake with our grain free pasta recipe for the Philips Pasta Machine. Tell you something, that pasta machine and our Thermomix? A match made in heaven. The best things about this pasta bake are…

It’s delicious.
It makes a heap.
It’s super creamy, but can be made gluten free!
Of course you can make your own pasta like we did, but we’ve written the recipe in such a way that packet pasta will absolutely do the trick.

We featured this recipe in Episode 148 of The 4 Blades podcast.
