Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon fresh sage, finely chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unfold the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured surface and cut each sheet into 12 equal squares (for a total of 24 squares). Set them aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped sage, ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and fully combined.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create the egg wash.
Place a small dollop (around 1 teaspoon) of the pumpkin mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.
Brush the edges of each square lightly with the egg wash.
Fold each square over diagonally to form a triangle. Press the edges together with a fork to seal tightly.
Arrange the pumpkin puffs on the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 1 inch of space between each puff.
Brush the tops of the puffs with the remaining egg wash for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and flaky.
Allow the pumpkin puffs to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!
