Smoked Pumpkin Vinaigrette
Don't let this Smoked Pumpkin Vinaigrette be just a fall salad dressing. I love drizzling it over roasted vegetables, grain bowls, and even grilled chicken whenever I want something a little different. The smoky pumpkin flavor brings so much character without overpowering everything else.
Servings: 1 .5 cups
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup canned pumpkin
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp + 1 tsp liquid smoke
- 2 crushed cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp freshly chopped sage
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Place all ingredients into a food processor or blender. Pulse until smooth, add more salt to taste if needed.
Notes
*If you prefer a more tangy dressing (I do), use 1/2 cup vinegar to 1/2 cup oil.
