Scale
For the Crust:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1/4 cup ice water
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix pumpkin puree, brown sugar, and pumpkin pie spice until well combined.
- Roll out the dough to 1/8-inch thickness and cut into circles. Spoon pumpkin filling onto half of each circle, leaving a border.
- Fold dough over filling, crimp edges with a fork, and brush with egg wash. Sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.
