Ingredients
– 1 package of puff pastry (2 sheets)
– 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
– ½ cup brown sugar
– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
– ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– 1 egg (for egg wash)
– 1 tablespoon milk (for egg wash)
– Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
Follow these simple steps to create your Easy Pumpkin Pie Twists:
1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Pastry: Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to package instructions. Roll out each sheet on a lightly floured surface.
3. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Mix until well blended.
4. Cut the Pastry: Cut each pastry sheet into rectangles, approximately 3 inches by 6 inches. You should get about 6 rectangles from each sheet.
5. Fill the Pastry: Place a tablespoon of the pumpkin filling in the center of each rectangle. Be careful not to overfill.
6. Twist the Pastry: Fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle. Press the edges to seal, then twist the ends to create a spiral effect.
7. Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Brush the egg wash over each twist for a golden finish.
8. Bake: Place the twists on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
9. Cool: Remove from the oven and let the twists cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
10. Dust with Powdered Sugar: If desired, dust the tops with powdered sugar before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
