We love to embrace seasonal flavors into our gluten-free recipes, and that includes pumpkin. This creamy, cozy and cheesy homemade pumpkin pasta sauce pairs perfectly with our Gluten-Free Fusilli thanks to the corkscrew shape that makes it perfect for holding rich and hearty sauces.
Cook Gluten-Free Fusilli according to package instructions. When straining, save the pasta water by placing a bowl underneath the colander. Set pasta aside.
In a medium saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once lightly bubbling, add garlic and stir.
When garlic has slightly browned, add cream cheese and stir. Add pumpkin, salt, pepper, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir together until the ingredients begin to melt and combine.
Add pasta water to loosen the sauce, if desired. Add strained pasta to the sauce and combine well.
Plate and serve, topping with Parmesan cheese if desired.
