I don't know any pumpkin-based recipes off the top of my head. I make pumpkin pie pretty much every Thanksgiving and often at Christmas as well. I've occasionally made something else with pumpkin in it, like pumpkin bread or a pumpkin stew of some kind. I feel comfortable following pretty much any recipe, but I would rely on an unfamiliar recipe for all of these, since I don't make them often.

I think pumpkin pie is the only thing I've ever made with pumpkin.

Let's see, I make pumpkin pie (1), pumpkin as a side dish (2)( this is baked like squash with butter, a little cinnamon and brown sugar), pumpkin soup(3)( this is sort of a potato-leek soup with pumpkin mixed in with the potatoes, with shallots and some orange peel added) and an Indian dish (vegetarian) called koftas(4). Koftas can be made with any vegetable or fruit that can be grated, such as green papaya, carrots or pumpkin. You use a half cup grated vegetable to one cup of besan (chick pea flour). If the vegetable is watery, you should squeeze out as much water as possible before adding the besan. Add some spice, about 1/4 tsp. of garam masala (the basic mixture is equal weights each of cinnamon sticks, cloves and cardamom ground together. There are regional variations of this mix in India, some may contain fenugreek) with pumpkin, perhaps some cayenne, and a pinch of baking soda knead this into a stiff dough, form it into little balls and deep fry them until golden brown. Then you make a sauce with about a cup of chopped fresh tomatoes, a half an onion, a clove of garlic, some cumin, coriander and turmeric. cook this in a skillet until the tomatoes form a pulpy sauce, mix in a cup of water well, then add the fried koftas and simmer for a few more minutes. Serve with basmati rice and dal.

I'm not interested enough in soda breads like pumpkin bread or banana bread to make them myself, but I'll eat 'em if someone else makes 'em. I did make a yeast pumpkin bread loaf once though.

Just pumpkin pie. I'll try to remember to get the recipe. It's the best one.

More than 3.

Pumpkin risotto is good - and soup. Sometimes I roast slices in the oven with a little olive oil and seasoning and have it instead of potato.
