- ½ tsp salt
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 2 quart casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over a medium heat. Add garlic and cook until soft and fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
- Whisk in flour. Cook 1 minute. Slowly whisk in milk. Add salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer until thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in pumpkin puree. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Layer half of the potatoes in the bottom of the prepared dish, cover with half of the sauce,spreading it with a spoon or spatula to evenly cover the potatoes. Sprinkle half of the cheese on top. Repeat for next layer.
