Servings: persons

3 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon clove
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup brown sugar or 1/2 cup maple syrup
1 small sugar pumpkin (3-6lbs)
3 granny smith apples
3 pears, any variety
1 cup pecans or 1 cup walnuts
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon orange peel, plus
orange juice, from orange
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons rum

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F.
2
Mix spice mix together by combining the first five ingredients.
3
Cut the top of the pumpkin off leaving a lid but enough room to stick your hand in and clean out the seeds and stringy pulp.
4
Mix 2 tablespoons butter and 1/2 of the spice mix into a paste and rub it all over the inside of the pumpkin and pumpkin lid.
5
Bake the pumpkin with the lid on for 15 minutes on a cookie sheet.
6
In the meantime, coarsely chop the apples and pears, then mix with the last of the spice mix, butter (cut into chunks), and remaining ingredients.
7
Stuff the pumpkin tightly with the mix and place the lid back on. The inside stuffing will bake down a bit as the apples and pears soften.
8
Bake for 45 minutes and check for doneness based upon how soft the flesh is when pierced with a fork. Continue baking until pumpkin is cooked, covering the top loosely with foil if it starts to blacken.
9
Cool with the lid off for 20 minutes and serve scoops of the pumpkin flesh and stuffing next to vanilla ice cream and a slice of pound cake.
