Ingredients

Scale

Pasty Dough:

  • 3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 20 tablespoons (300 grams) unsalted butter, cold, cubed
  • ½ cup (70 grams) milk (or water)

Pumpkin Filling:

  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ⅓ cup packed (70 grams) light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
  • Pinch cloves
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree

Glaze:

  • 1½ cups (175 grams) powdered sugar
  • 23 tablespoons (3045 grams) milk
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Make the pastry: Add the flour, powdered sugar, cinnamon, and salt to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until combined. Add in butter and pulse 7 times. With the motor running, pour in the milk and let process until the dough forms together into a cohesive ball around the blade.
  2. Scrape the dough from the bowl and place it in a piece of plastic wrap and form into a rectangle, and wrap tightly. Roll the dough out until it stretches to the corner of the plastic wrap to ensure a tight seal.
  3. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
  4. Make the filling: Whisk together the egg yolks, vanilla extract, light brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and pumpkin puree.
  5. Fill and bake pasties: Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and let rest at room temperature. Roll out the dough, cut circles, fill with pumpkin mixture, crimp edges, and chill pasties. Bake at 400 degrees until golden. Glaze with a mixture of powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla.
