It seems we all have a can or 7 (raises hand) of pumpkin puree stashed in the way back corner of our pantry. Since I can’t seem to remember what day it is, why bother with remembering the seasons? The fall flavors of this Pumpkin Risotto use mostly on-hand ingredients, so you can enjoy the recipe anytime throughout the year ... though it really hits your tastebuds in a different way when there's a chill in the air and leaves on the ground.

Heat broth in a medium saucepan.
Melt butter in a dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and diced onion and cook until translucent, about 10 minutes.
Add rice to the pot and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add seasonings, canned pumpkin and 1 cup of stock, reducing heat to medium.
Let the mixture absorb the stock and continue to add about 1 cup at a time, letting it evaporate between each cup. Rice should be cooked in about 25 minutes.
Taste, adjust seasoning and serve with parmesan and toasted pecans (optional).
