Description

Cozy snack for a cool autumn afternoon.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 6 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1 package of pie dough (2 crusts)
  • 1 egg mixed with 2 teaspoons of milk (egg wash)
  • 1 1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 2 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Take out the pie dough and follow directions on the box to get the dough closer to room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Using a cookie cutter cut out shapes from the dough (or using a knife, cut out 3 inch by 4 inch rectangles).
  • Place the cut dough on the prepared baking sheets.
  • In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin, brown sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin spice.
  • Brush half of the pie dough slices with egg wash.
  • Scoop 2-3 tablespoons of pumpkin mixture onto the slices of pie dough with egg wash, leaving a 1/4 inch free around the edges.
  • Place the other half of the pie dough slices on top of the ones with pie filling and brush egg wash on top.
  • Using a fork, poke a few holes in the tops of the pop tarts.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the tops begin to turn golden.
  • In a small bowl combine the confectioner’s sugar, milk, and cinnamon.
  • When the pop tarts have cooled off, spoon the glaze over each one and top with sprinkles (if desired).
  • Let the glaze firm up and serve.
