These delectable treats are a twist on the classic Jewish pastry, filled with a sweet and spicy pumpkin filling that is sure to delight your taste buds.
To make these delicious Pumpkin Spice Hamentashen, you will need the following ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ginger
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp allspice
- 1/4 tsp salt
To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the egg and mix until the dough comes together.
In a separate bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, and a pinch of salt. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter or glass to cut out circles of dough.
Place a small spoonful of the pumpkin filling in the center of each circle of dough. Fold the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pinching the corners together to form a triangle shape. Place the hamentashen on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake the hamentashen for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Allow the hamentashen to cool for a few minutes before serving.
These Pumpkin Spice Hamentashen are the perfect combination of sweet and spicy, with a soft and flaky pastry that melts in your mouth. They are a great addition to any holiday dessert table, and are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
