Creamy Spiced Pumpkin Hand Pies

Creamy Spiced Pumpkin Hand Pies

Happy Thanksgiving!

I don’t know about you but my favorite part of Thanksgiving is getting to enjoy the leftover food.  Is it just me or does everything always seems a little bit better day after?

I had a little pumpkin puree left over so I decided to make these Creamy Spiced Pumpkin Hand Pies.  They are crazy-easy to make and perfect for an on-the-go slice of pumpkin pie.  I’m thinking these Creamy Spiced Pumpkin Hand Pies and a little Black Friday or Cyber Monday shopping makes a perfect combination.  I’m more of a Cyber Monday shopper because the crowds at the mall freak me out a little.  I know a lot of you consider Black Friday a major sport like football or basketball — so knock yourselves out.  Just make sure you make a pan of these to take with you before you head out the door.  You’re welcome.

You’ll need less than 30 minutes to whip these up and this is how you do it:

Carefully unfold puff pastry and roll if necessary to a 9-inch x 9-inch square.  Cut into 9 equal squares by cutting into thirds vertically and horizontally.  Repeat with remaining puff pastry and set aside.

Place half of the dough squares on a baking sheet.  Dividing evenly, top each with 1 teaspoon cream cheese and 1 tablespoon pumpkin mixture.  Alternately, mix the cream cheese and pumpkin mixture together and then evenly divide.

In a small bowl whisk the remaining egg and water to combine.  Brush a small amount of the egg mixture around the edge of the pastry square, and top with remaining dough squares.  Crimp edges with tines of a fork to seal and cut slits in the top to vent.  Brush tops with egg mixture and sprinkle with sugar.

Beets are one of the first things I get planted in the garden every year. Depending on the variety, they’re ready from seed to table in about 60 days. While we mostly associate this versatile vegetable with its deeply hued taproot, did you know the leaves are also edible? As they grow to maturity in the garden, I enjoy clipping the leaves for fresh crisp salads and quick stir-fry dishes. GreenThumbWhiteApron.com

Photo of jelly jars filled with Lavender-Strawberry Jam Spritzer Cocktail. We make strawberry jam every year and always have it on hand so it seemed natural to use it as a sweeter in this cocktail. When mixed together with a bit of lavender syrup, vanilla infused vodka, and club soda, you’ve got something quite special. GreenThumbWhiteApron.com
Strawberry blossoms are an indication of a heavy crop this year.
Perfect Steamed Eggs! The only sure-fire trick is to use old eggs. As eggs age, they gradually lose moisture through the pores in their shell and the air pocket at the tip expands. The pH of the whites also changes, going from a low pH to a relatively high pH, which makes them adhere less strongly to the shell. Farm-fresh eggs will always be tricky to age. Ideally, buy your eggs a week or two before you plan to boil them and let them age in the fridge.
