Baked Pumpkin (Native American)

Members of the Chippewa tribe near Lake Superior have been enjoying this savoury side dish for generations.

1 small pumpkin
¼ cup apple cider vinegar
¼ cup pure maple syrup
¼ cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

Put the entire pumpkin in your oven and bake for about two hours.

Cut the baked pumpkin in half and scoop out the pulp and seeds from inside, spreading the pulp into a casserole dish.

Mix the remaining ingredients in a bowl and pour over the pumpkin.

Bake for another 35 minutes.
