Ingredients
Instructions
To make the ravioli,
Mix flour and salt in a large bowl
Make a dent in the flour and add the wet ingredients (olive oil, water) and the eggs
Beat the eggs and slowly mix in flour until a dough ball forms
Using a floured surface, knead the dough until it becomes easy to work with
Roll out the dough thinly using a rolling pin or pasta maker, then cut it into circles using a large cup or cookie cutter
Mix the canned pumpkin with a tablespoon of brown sugar and add pumpkin spice
Put a small amount of the pumpkin mixture in the center of a circle of pasta, wet the rim of the circle with water and place another pasta circle on top, pinching the edges to close the ravioli. Repeat this process with the rest of the pasta
Once all the ravioli are made, boil them in water for three minutes
To make the applesauce,
Boil the apple cider in a pan until it begins to thicken
Meanwhile, heat the butter with a tablespoon of brown sugar and the sliced apple in a large pan until the apples are softened
once the apples are softened, add in the apple cider and continue to reduce until a syrup is formed, then take the sauce off of the heat
Lastly, add the sauce to the pasta and enjoy your meal!
