• 1 (2-pound) pie pumpkin

• 1 tablespoon canola oil

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1/2 teaspoon pepper

• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

• Trim and discard the pumpkin stem. Slice the pumpkin in half. Discard the pulp and reserve the seeds for Air-Fried Pumpkin Seeds (recipe follows).

• Carefully peel the pumpkin shell using a potato peeler or sharp knife. Discard the peel. Cut the pumpkin flesh into 1/2-inch cubes. Place the pumpkin in a mixing bowl and toss with the oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder.

• Set the air fryer to 400 degrees and heat for 5 minutes. Working in batches if necessary, place the pumpkin in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 7 minutes. Shake the basket and cook for 5 minutes more. Check the pumpkin and cook an additional 1-2 minutes if needed, until the pumpkin is tender and the edges are brown and crispy. Makes 3 cups.
