A quick but tasty appetizer
preparation
step 1
Dice the pumpkin, put in a pan with the cinnamon and the nut, and cook with very little water and with the lid. It will take about 10 minutes. Now reduce it to a purée.
step 2
Dice the bread, season with olive oil and oregano and stir for a few minutes: all the cubes must be seasoned. Pass the bread cubes in a pan over high heat, without burning.
step 3
Put them now in a blender and coarsely crumble. Add the bread to the pumpkin puree and mix well: you will get a mixture very hard. If not, add a little breadcrumbs.
step 4
Forming the coins, crushed balls of 3-4 cm in diameter. Garnish with chopped pumpkin seeds, or with chopped pistachios.
step 5
At this point you could eat well, but in order to obtain a more solid consistency bake for 20 minutes at 200º, static oven.
