History & Origin

Autumn Frost F1 is a specialty Koginut-type hybrid that develops a unique frosted skin pattern as it ripens, nature's own "ready to harvest" signal. Bred from moschata genetics, it offers exceptional sweetness and a creamy texture that intensifies in storage. This variety thrives in Kansas heat and humidity.

In the Kitchen

Cut in half, scoop seeds, and roast cut-side down at 375°F for 40 minutes. The concentrated flesh is perfect for pumpkin butter, custards, and silky soups. Its natural sugars caramelize beautifully, making it ideal for roasting wedges as a side dish.
