Cut the peeled pumpkin into pieces (cubes or cubes).

We take a baking dish suitable for baking and put slices of pumpkin into it.

Sprinkle a little olive oil on the pumpkin, salt and sprinkle with a mixture of herbs.

We send the pumpkin form to the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes at a temperature of 200 degrees.

How to bake pumpkin slices in the oven

So, everything is simple. First, cut a piece of suitable size from the pumpkin. I have a three-kilogram pumpkin, so I separated a third. The variety of this pumpkin is a butternut. It has the shape of a bottle and the upper oblong part of it has no seeds at all, a solid flesh. The skin of the pumpkin is quite dense, but it is removed quite easily. In order not to be cut, put the pumpkin on a chopping board in the same way as they put a log when they want to chop wood from it. Slice down. Next, with a knife, we make a cut between the skin and pulp and “chop” it, as it were, as it is separated from the logs of wood chips.

Cut the peeled pumpkin. Do not make slices too thin, otherwise they will not keep their shape when baked.

Put the pumpkin in a suitable container. Only the pan turned out to be free. But any bowl will do.

We collect everything for the sauce: oil, spices, salt, garlic, which must be peeled and grated.

Put everything in a pot with pumpkin.

Mix so that all slices of pumpkin are covered with sauce.

We spread on a baking sheet covered with baking paper, or in a ceramic form. Do not put on an enameled baking sheet, the pumpkin may stick. Another important point: slices of pumpkin for baking in the oven must be laid out so that they do not touch each other. At a short distance. Otherwise, everything will stick together and get porridge.

Baked pumpkin is cooked very quickly - literally 20 minutes in an oven preheated to 200 degrees. It is important not to overexpose the pumpkin, otherwise it will creep into porridge.

Hold the prepared pumpkin for 10 minutes before serving, so that it is better soaked in sauce.

Enjoy your meal!
