Pumpkin casserole with semolina

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 50 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make pumpkin casserole with semolina? Prepare your food. Pumpkin is suitable both fresh and frozen. Defrost the frozen one first, maybe not completely - it will still need to be cooked. Wash fresh, cut, peel and cut into cubes.

2. STEP 2

   

   First of all, pour kefir over the semolina and leave it to swell for about 15 minutes. Kefir is suitable for any fat content.

3. STEP 3

   

   Pour the diced pumpkin with a small amount of water and boil until soft over low heat. While you're at it, add sugar to the pumpkin. You can adjust its quantity to your taste. If the pumpkin is of dessert sweet varieties, you don’t need to add sugar at all.

4. STEP 4

   

   Drain the water from the finished pumpkin, and mash the pumpkin pieces or punch them with a blender - but this works just fine with a regular spoon, check the condition of your pumpkin. It can behave differently depending on the variety.

5. STEP 5

   

   Beat a chicken egg into the pumpkin puree. Be sure to wash your eggs before using them, as even seemingly clean shells can harbor harmful bacteria. It is best to use food grade detergents and a brush.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add the swollen semolina to the pumpkin. Add baking powder and stir - the dough will immediately begin to bubble.

7. STEP 7

   

   Grease a baking dish with butter and sprinkle with dry semolina or breadcrumbs. Due to this, the casserole will not stick to the pan, and an appetizing crust will form on its surface.

8. STEP 8

   

   Pour the dough into the mold and place in the oven, heated to 180 degrees. After 15 minutes, reduce the temperature to 160 degrees and cook the casserole for about another half hour. Time and temperature are approximate, use your oven and the readiness of the casserole as your guide. When it turns brown and does not stick to a wooden skewer when pierced, the pumpkin casserole with semolina is ready.

9. STEP 9

   

   Serve this casserole with fresh berries and fruits (by the way, you can partially add them to the dough), whipped cream, condensed milk, jam or jam. Bon appetit!

I made this casserole recipe and loved it! .Only I took my measuring cup and doubled the ingredients of semolina and sugar, in this recipe and the rest of the products, so that the yield of the dish would be greater. I got it tender, sweet, you can put less sugar, although my pumpkin is not so sweet, for I'm a bit sweet! Grease the top of the casserole with a little butter. My son also liked it! My pumpkin is also not as bright as the author’s, the varieties are different, but the aroma of the pumpkin was amazing while it was baking. It took an average of 40 minutes to prepare: 20 minutes. at a temperature of - 200 degrees and 20 minutes at - 225 degrees. Thank you, I’ll take note of the dish without adding flour for variety. Next time I’ll try adding either vanilla sugar or a little cinnamon.

It was interesting to try pumpkin baking and the recipe: pumpkin casserole with semolina turned out to be very helpful. The semolina was poured with kefir and left to swell. Peeled the pumpkin, cut it into small cubes and boiled until tender. I punched the pumpkin with a blender, added sugar, an egg, a pinch of salt and mixed everything. Added swollen semolina and baking powder to the pumpkin and stirred until smooth. Grease a baking dish with vegetable oil and sprinkle with semolina. I poured the dough into the mold and put it in the oven to bake at 180° for 40 minutes. The result was a tender, appetizing and very tasty casserole! I liked it both hot and cold. Thanks to the author for the recipe!

Easy, healthy, beautiful, for breakfast, for the whole family! Pumpkin casserole with semolina is a very tasty delicacy that even our little “unwanted ones” enjoyed trying. Pumpkin makes it healthy, and semolina makes it tasty. This casserole can be served not only for breakfast, but also as a dessert. Thank you very much for the recipe!
