Pumpkin & white bean spread
A savory orange pumpkin-and-bean spread with gently bloomed cumin, garlic and lemon.
Ingredients
Volumes are approximate. For baking, use a scale; Metric keeps the specified gram weights.
Let’s make it
- Warm oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in garlic for 1 minute without browning, then cumin for 20 seconds.
- Add all pumpkin and stir over low heat for 4-5 minutes until heated and slightly thickened. Scrape into a shallow heatproof bowl and cool for 10 minutes.
- Process beans, pumpkin mixture, lemon juice and salt in a food processor until spreadable, pausing to scrape the sides. Do not put hot mixture into a sealed personal blender. Retain all flavored oil.
- Divide the whole batch into eight equal portions. Refrigerate promptly within 2 hours in a covered shallow container; use within 3-4 days. Accompaniments are separate from the estimate.

Calculation notes & sources
ESTIMATED per serving. Brand, crop, preparation, draining, pan residue and substitutions change actual nutrition. Not laboratory analysis. Each ingredient retains its primary food description and state. All listed ingredient masses are counted; cooking moisture changes do not change the stated portion count. No generic nutrient-retention factor is invented. Calories are kcal; protein, total carbohydrate, fat and total sugar are grams. Total carbohydrate includes fiber and is not net carbohydrate. Fiber and sodium are not displayed. Equal portions or explicitly counted items define the stated recipe yield. US/Metric display changes do not change these canonical inputs. Primary-source supplements are retained per ingredient where USDA lacks a field; missing values are never silently changed to zero. All flavored oil and pumpkin are retained; no water added or drained after mixing. Use plain beans and compatible spice labels; dietary tags are ingredient classifications, not allergen-safety claims.
