A pumpkin gratin recipe with goats cheese makes a rich and delicious side dish. The sweetness of the pumpkin is balanced by the sharpness of the creamy goats cheese.

For those of you who miss a sweet potato casserole, this pumpkin gratin is a great low carb subsititute. It hits the sweet spot but without being too overpowering. It's an easy low carb side dish too which is an added bonus!

HOW TO MAKE A PUMPKIN GRATIN

You could make this pumpkin gratin ahead and just bake it when you are ready to eat. Although I used goats cheese for this low carb side dish you could substitute it with a less powerful flavour creamy cheese such as Camembert or Brie. This side dish is simple as precooking the pumpkin by either boiling or steaming it. Layer the pumpkin in a casserole dish with the goats cheese like a lasagna then bake. It's a simple dish that you could add your own flourish to.
