Image of the ingredients needed for homemade Pumpkin ravioli.

Note: The full list of this recipe ingredients with their amounts and options are listed in the recipe card below.

  • all-purpose flour
  • large eggs
  • kosher salt
  • pumpkin puree
  • parmesan cheese
  • nutmeg
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • salted butter
  • parmesan shavings

🗒 Instructions

Note: This is an overview of the instructions. The full instructions are in the recipe card below.

First set of four steps to making homemade pumpkin ravioli.
  1. Create a mound with the flour and build a well in the middle, big enough to hold three cracked eggs, and sprinkle with salt.
  2. Mix the eggs with a fork slowly.
  3. Push some of the flour into the eggs. Once fully mixed, start kneading (for about 10 minutes if using a pasta machine or 15 if rolling the pasta manually).
  4. Wrap the dough in cling wrap and allow it to sit for 30-60 minutes.
Second set of four steps to making the ravioli with pumpkin parmesan filling.
  1. Add the pumpkin puree, parmesan, nutmeg, salt, and pepper to a small pot. Once the cheese has melted, turn the heat off and stir for 1-2 minutes and allow to cool completely. 
  2. Cut the dough into four pieces.
  3. Take on a quarter piece and flatten it with your hand into a shape that will allow it to pass through your pasta press. Fold the sheet over itself and pass it through the press again (repeat this 3-4 times until the sheet is smooth). The dough should be paper-thin (about ⅛-inch thick which is about #6 on the pasta machine knob). 
  4. Lay down the pasta sheet on a lightly floured surface, placing 1 teaspoon of pumpkin mix along the one side of the sheet with 1-½ inch gaps between. 
Third set of four steps to making the homemade ravioli with parmesan pumpkin.
  1. Wet the dough with your fingers along where the seams will be with water and fold the dough, pressing along the seams and in between the pumpkin mix pockets. This will help to seal the folded dough pockets.
  2. Use a fluted wheel (if you have one) to cut between the ravioli and to make pretty edges. Otherwise use a knife. A fork can be used to seal the edges. 
  3. Continue this until you have assembled all cut and sealed ravioli, sprinkling them with flour. 
  4. Add the ravioli to a pot of boiling water for 4-5 minutes and then remove to a dish.
Fourth and final set of steps to making the homemade ravioli with pumpkin.
  1. Heat the butter in a pot until completely melted.
  2. Pour the melted butter over the ravioli.
  3. Sprinkle freshly grated parmesan over the ravioli.
  4. Serve your pumpkin ravioli with a simple side salad.

🤔 FAQs

These are the questions we are most frequently asked about making homemade pumpkin ravioli.

What kind of sauce do you make for pumpkin ravioli?

A simple brown butter sauce with lemon and sage is always delicious with pumpkin ravioli. You may also add a touch of balsamic vinegar and brown sugar to the brown butter for another amazing sauce.

Can you use canned pumpkin for ravioli?

Yes. Canned pumpkin and pumpkin puree are the same thing. Be sure it doesn't say Pumpkin Pie Filling.

How do you make brown butter sauce for pumpkin ravioli?

Add 1-½ tablespoons of brown sugar to the melted butter. Some recipes also call for the addition of balsamic vinegar (about 2-½ tablespoons) to balance the flavor.

How do you prepare pumpkin spicy ravioli?

Start by making the dough so that it can rest. While the dough rests, make the pumpkin filling. Roll out the dough using a pasta machine or rolling pin and assemble the pumpkin ravioli as directed in the recipe instructions.

How long do I boil pumpkin ravioli?

You will only need to boil the pumpkin ravioli for 4-5 minutes.

👩🏻‍🍳 Tips

  • If you have a ravioli mold then go ahead and use that otherwise you can easily assemble and shape your ravioli as I have on a lightly floured surface. 
  • Use a cookie scoop to help you measure uniform quantities of filling.
  • Keep a close watch on the boiling ravioli. It cooks quickly and it should be al dente. 
  • Be sure to seal the seams/edges of the folded stuffed ravioli well otherwise the pumpkin filling could spill out while the pasta boils. 
  • Grate your parmesan cheese from a block of cheese instead of using pre-shredded cheese for the best taste. 
  • Don’t mistake pumpkin pie filling for pumpkin puree. The pie filling includes added ingredients whereas pumpkin puree is simply cooked pumpkin. 

📚 Variations

  • Add some chopped pecans or walnuts over the butter sauce and grated cheese as an optional extra. 
  • If you don’t want to make your own pasta, you can use a package of wonton wrappers instead. 
  • Instead of parmesan cheese, use something like Pecorino or Grana Padano. It has a lovely nutty flavor. 
  • Use canned pumpkin instead of pumpkin puree - they are essentially the same thing. 
  • Add garlic to the melted butter sauce.

🥫 Storage

Leftover pumpkin ravioli can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. They can be reheated in the microwave with additional grated parmesan sprinkled on top. 

You also have the option of freezing this pumpkin ravioli for up to 3 months.
