Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour Essential for the pastry base.
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar Adds a touch of sweetness to the dough.
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon Brings warm, aromatic flavor.
  • ½ teaspoon salt Enhances the overall taste.
  • 20 tablespoons unsalted butter Cold, cubed; creates a flaky crust.
  • ½ cup milk Provides moisture to the pastry.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Infuses delightful flavor into the filling.
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar Sweetens the pumpkin mixture.
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon For added warmth in the filling.
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg Freshly grated; offers a hint of spice.
  • pinch cloves Complements the other spices beautifully.
  • 1 can pumpkin puree The star ingredient for filling.
  • 1-½ cups powdered sugar For a sweet glaze on top.
  • 2-3 tablespoons milk To achieve desired glaze consistency.
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract Adds richness to the glaze.

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Pastry Dough: Begin by mixing all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Cut in cold cubed butter until it resembles coarse crumbs, then stir in milk, egg yolks, and vanilla extract until just combined.
  2. Chill the Dough: Form the dough into a disc and wrap it tightly in plastic wrap before refrigerating for at least 20 minutes.
  3. Make the Filling: In a separate bowl, combine pumpkin puree, light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves until smooth and well-blended.
  4. Roll Out Dough and Fill Pastries: On a lightly floured surface, roll out chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thick and cut into circles. Place a spoonful of pumpkin filling on half of each circle before folding over and sealing edges with a fork.
  5. Bake the Pastries: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange filled pastries on lined baking sheets and bake for approximately 25 minutes or until golden brown.
  6. Glaze and Serve: While pastries cool slightly, whisk together powdered sugar with milk and vanilla extract until smooth to create a glaze. Drizzle over cooled pastries before serving warm or at room temperature.
