These Pumpkin Pie Twists combine the cozy flavors of pumpkin pie with the flaky goodness of puff pastry, making them the ultimate fall treat for effortless autumn baking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • Frozen Puff Pastry Sheets (thawed according to package instructions)
  • 1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon Ground Cloves
  • 1 Egg (whisked for brushing)
  • 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar (optional glaze topping)
  • 2–3 teaspoons Milk (to mix with powdered sugar for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup pumpkin puree, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1/8 teaspoon cloves. Stir until smooth.
  3. Lightly flour your surface and roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets to smooth them.
  4. Spread a thin layer of the pumpkin filling over one puff pastry sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.
  5. Place the second puff pastry sheet on top, pressing gently to seal. Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to slice the pastry into 1-inch-wide strips.
  6. Gently hold each strip at both ends and twist until it forms a spiral. Place the twisted strips onto the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Whisk one egg in a small bowl and brush it over the twists for a golden finish.
  8. Bake the twists for 18–22 minutes, or until they’re puffed and golden brown.
  9. Optional: Mix 1/2 cup powdered sugar with 2–3 teaspoons milk until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled twists for extra sweetness.

Notes

Don’t overfill the pastry to avoid sogginess. Work quickly with puff pastry to keep it cool. Seal the edges to prevent filling leakage. Use parchment paper for easy cleanup.
