Pumpkin is once again the star in my recipes; it’s a delicious and very versatile vegetable. This time I present it to you as a perfect dish, both as a main course and as a single dish: the Pumpkin, Mushroom, and Sausage Pie in Air Fryer, a rich and hearty recipe, but also very delicious. With pumpkin, we can range from appetizers to desserts, with simple and delightful recipes, and bring to the table a first course like this Pumpkin and Sausage Pasta in Air Fryer and as an appetizer the Pumpkin with Bacon in Air Fryer. Instead, if you want a tasty and quick side dish, I recommend the Pumpkin with Olives in Air Fryer, perfect to accompany your main courses.
To prepare the Pumpkin, Mushroom, and Sausage Pie in Air Fryer, first, you need to cook the pumpkin, mash it with a fork to make a puree, and then prepare the mushrooms and sausage. I used the butternut squash variety, but you can replace it with Hokkaido or Kabocha.
Now I will explain how to make this delicious pie.

Steps
How to prepare the Pumpkin, Mushroom, and Sausage Pie in Air Fryer
First, remove the pumpkin skin, seeds, and cut it into chunks
Chop the onion and sauté it with a good amount of oil
Once the onion is well golden, add the pumpkin, stir for a minute, pour in a small amount of water, cover, and let it cook until the pumpkin is tender, about 20 minutes
Transfer it to a bowl and mash it with a fork, let it cool for 10 minutes
Add the egg, flour, grated Parmesan, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and mix well
Peel the garlic and sauté it with the olive oil
Add the sliced champignon mushrooms and cook for 10 minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper
Transfer them to a bowl and mix with the stracchino
Remove the casing from the sausage
Crumble it coarsely and add it to the same pan where you cooked the mushrooms, hot, and with the help of a spoon or wooden spatula, crumble it as much as possible. Sauté for a few minutes
Add the mushrooms and let them flavor for a few minutes
Transfer mushrooms and sausage to a bowl and mix with the stracchino
Butter and dust the pan with breadcrumbs
Cover the base of the pan with half of the pumpkin puree and spread the mushroom, sausage, and stracchino filling on top
Cover with the other half of the puree
Sprinkle the surface with breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan
Insert the pan in the air fryer and cook at 340°F for 14 minutes, increase to 390°F and continue for 2 minutes
