Pumpkin Ravioli

Here is a recipe for absolutely delicious homemade ravioli.

Pasta

3 cups whole wheat flour
2 large eggs
3 TB water
1 t olive oil
½ t salt

1. Mix up the 2 eggs, water, olive oil. Put the flour and salt into a food processor and slowly add the wet mixture. You might need to add more water if you are in a dry climate. I actually added an extra ¼ cup of water to make the dough. If using a pasta machine to roll dough move onto second step. If rolling by hand you need to knead the dough for a while (~10 minutes) then move onto second step.

2. After dough is mixed, form into a flat disk, wrap in saran wrap and refrigerate for a couple hours. Run it through a pasta machine or hand roll.

Pumpkin Filling

2 cups purreed pumpkin
1 egg
½ cup mozzarella cheese, finely shredded
¼ t nutmeg
3t brown sugar
1/8 t ground black pepper

Mix all ingredients in a food processor.

Form your ravioli, adding 1 teaspoon of the pumplin filling per pasta piece, and add to boiling water. I cooked mine for 3-5 minutes. If you freeze the ravioli before cooking you may need to boil them for longer.
