Equipment

  • Knife and cutting board
  • Dutch oven or oven-safe pot
  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • ½ cup yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 ½ cups arborio rice

  • ¼ cup dry white wine
  • 1- 15 oz can pumpkin puree

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
