Ingredients

Scale

For the Pastry

  • 1 sheet Puff Pastry (pre-rolled)

For the Pumpkin Filling

  • 1 cup Canned Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cloves

For Assembly

  • 1 Egg (beaten, for brushing)
  • Powdered Sugar (optional, for dusting)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and prepare for baking.
  2. Prepare Puff Pastry: Roll out your thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface until it reaches about 1/8 inch thickness for a delicate base.
  3. Mix Pumpkin Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and ground cloves until smooth and well incorporated to create a flavorful filling.
  4. Spread Filling: Evenly spread the pumpkin mixture over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges to facilitate sealing.
  5. Fold and Seal: Carefully fold the puff pastry over the filling and press the edges firmly to seal the filling inside and prevent leakage during baking.
  6. Cut and Twist: Slice the folded pastry into 1-inch wide strips, then twist each strip gently into spirals to form the pumpkin pie twists.
  7. Arrange and Brush: Place the twists on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart. Brush the tops with the beaten egg to achieve a golden, shiny finish.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the twists are puffed up and golden brown.
  9. Cool and Garnish: Remove from the oven and let the twists cool slightly on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.

Notes

  • Store leftover twists in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • For longer storage, freeze the twists for up to 2 months and thaw before reheating.
  • Make sure the puff pastry is fully thawed before rolling to avoid cracking.
  • Adjust the spices to taste for a milder or stronger pumpkin spice flavor.
  • Serve warm for the best texture and flavor experience.
