Name: Pumpkin Turnovers
Prep time: 35 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 1 h 5 min
Yield: 12 serving(s)
Ingredients: 1 cup (250 ml) unsweetened pumpkin purée; 1 egg; 1/3 cup (75 ml) honey; 1 tsp ground cinnamon; 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg; 1/2 cup (115 g) unsalted butter; 1 pinch salt; 6 sheets frozen phyllo pastry, thawed; 3 tbsp pumpkin seeds, chopped; 1 tbsp sugar

Preparation

Pumpkin Filling
- In a bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients.
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
Brown Butter
- In a small pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Cook the butter until starting to brown and no longer foaming. It will turn a nutty brown colour. Quickly pour into a sieve set over a bowl. Add a pinch of salt.
Assembly
- On a work surface, using a pastry brush, cover 2 sheets of phyllo with brown butter, stacking them on top of each other. Cut the sheets into four long strips.
- Place 2 tbsp (30 ml) of the pumpkin filling at the end of one strip of phyllo. Fold the phyllo up into a small triangle. Continue folding the triangle of phyllo over itself several times to form a turnover. Place on the baking sheet. Repeat this process with the remaining strips of phyllo, then with the remaining sheets of phyllo, brown butter and pumpkin filling.
- Brush the tops of the turnovers with brown butter.
- In a small bowl, combine the pumpkin seeds and sugar. Sprinkle over the turnovers.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until the turnovers are golden. Let cool before serving. Although they are best enjoyed the same day they are made, the turnovers will keep for 2 days in an airtight container at room temperature.
