Servings: 6 servings
Calories: 313kcal
Ingredients
- 375 g Puff pastry
- 3 tablespoon Lemon curd
- 1 Egg whisked
- Sugar (for sprinkling; optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C(fan)/400°F/Gas 6.
- Use a pumpkin shaped cookie cutter to cut 12 shapes in the pastry.
- Use a small, sharp knife to carefully cut faces into 6 of the pumpkin shapes.
- Divide the lemon curd between the pumpkins that don't have faces.
- Put the pumpkins with faces on top of the ones with lemon curd. Crimp the edges with a fork. Brush with whisked egg and sprinkle with sugar.
- Cook for ?? minutes. Once cooked, transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool.
Notes
- This recipe uses a 375g/13oz sheet of puff pastry, but not all of it is used. This means the nutritional information will be higher than it actually is.
- Instead of a jam or curd, you could add some finely diced apples and make mini apple pies.
- You can use this recipe to make any shapes - it doesn't have to be pumpkins.
- Take these to the next level and drizzle them with some caramel before serving.
- If you want kids to get involved with making this, get them to tell you what faces they want and cut them yourself and then they can add the filling. The faces need to be cut with a small sharp knife, which wouldn't be suitable for young children.
