Description

This recipe is wonderful as a side dish, and it is very impressive when you bring the whole pumpkin to the table! May be served spooned over pound cake or pumpkin bread, and garnished with whipped cream.

Ingredients
  • 1 medium sugar pumpkin
  • 6 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and chopped
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • ½ cup golden raisins
  • ½ cup dark rum
  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Position rack in the center of the oven.
  2. 2. Cut out top of pumpkin, and set aside. Scoop out seeds with a metal spoon.
  3. 3. In a large bowl, stir together the apples, walnuts, cranberry sauce, pineapple, brown sugar, raisins, and rum. Season with ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon, and mix well. Spoon the mixture into the cleaned pumpkin, and replace top.
  4. 4. Set pumpkin directly on a baking stone or a thick baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until pumpkin begins to soften. Remove from heat, and stir, scraping the sides gently, so that some pieces of pumpkin fall into the apple mixture.
