Savory Tarragon Pumpkin Torte

Although not entirely sure what makes something qualify to be called a “torte”, that is what I am calling this delicious brunch dish. The delicious mix of sweet pumping, savory tarragon and rosemary with rich organic cream makes a perfect main dish to keep your tastebuds satisfied and your blood sugar balanced all afternoon.
