Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat or piece of parchment paper; set aside.
- Place pumpkin wedges on baking sheet and transfer to oven; bake until fork-tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- When pumpkin is cool enough to handle, scoop out flesh and transfer to a large bowl; discard skin. Add molasses, butter, orange zest and juice, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, and cayenne; season with salt and pepper.
- Using a potato masher, heavy-duty whisk or handheld mixer, beat until smooth. Transfer to a warm serving bowl.
