About

Learn how to break down a whole local pumpkin and turn it into a from-scratch pie and other meals! 

While your pie is baking, we'll make a rustic pumpkin gnocchi and enjoy a light lunch. We'll discuss other ways to use pumpkin puree for baking or meals. 

On the menu

  • Pumpkin puree, to take home.
  • Pumpkin pie, to take home, with crust options of traditional, chocolate spice, and gluten-free buckwheat.
  • Pumpkin gnocchi.

Details

  • You'll take home your pie, some homemade puree to use or freeze, and a hefty recipe packet with the instructor's original pumpkin recipes, from sweet to savory. 
  • For the pie, you'll have a choice to practice one of three types of crust — traditional, chocolate spice, and gluten-free buckwheat.
  • BARN’s kitchen facility regularly uses ingredients on the FDA’s major allergens list. This class uses: dairy (butter), eggs, and wheat.

Details

A $25 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, covers all the ingredients you'll need.

Class Policies

  • Ages 14 and up are welcome.
  • Closed-toe shoes are required in the studio.
  • Tie back long hair.
