What's not to like about sweet pumpkin pie-like filling wrapped in a crisp puff pastry? The pumpkin pasties are like a tiny bite of pie, but not. One of the first treats Harry Potter has on his journey to Hogwarts, this classic fall sweet is a lovely change from pumpkin pie.
Serve them warm or cool, or you could drizzle them with a simple glaze to make them extra special. Next time you're looking for a special fall-themed treat to make, give these pumpkin pasties a try!
These are the perfect snack to make while you curl up and read Harry Potter (with or without your kids) Add a cup of tea (or Hot Butterbeer!) and it's just like you're in your common room at Hogwarts.
This recipe yields about 9 pieces, so you'll want to buy additional boxes of puff pastry (in the freezer section at your grocery store) if you need to make a larger batch.
Pumpkin Pasties Ingredients
- 1 package frozen puff pastry, thawed (about 9×9 inches in size)
- 1 cup canned pumpkin
- 3 tbsp brown sugar, packed
- ½ tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp nutmeg
Pumpkin Pasties Process
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Cut the puff pastry into 9 equal squares, about 3×3 inches in size each. Place on lined baking sheet.
In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Place a dollop, about 1 tablespoon in the center of each puff pastry square.
To seal, take one corner of the puff pastry and fold it over to meet the opposite corner. Twist the corners and then seal with a fork.
Use a knife to cut a small slit in the middle of each pasty.
Bake for about 20 minutes and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
