A yummy way to start the day! 

Homemade Pumpkin “Poptarts” ™


1 cup pumpkin puree

1/4 cup brown sugar1 egg

2 tsp allspice or cinnamon

2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour (or 50/50)

1/2 teaspoons salt

1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 c.  cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

1 egg, slightly beaten

1/3 cup ice cold water

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  In a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, pulse together the flour, salt, and sugar. Add in the butter, and pulse a few times until the mixture is crumbly and resembles coarse meal. Combine the egg and water in a container (remove all ice pieces). While the processor is running, pour the water/egg mixture in and pulse until mixture just comes together.

2. Pour mixture out onto a floured board and knead a few times to bring all the ingredients together. Roll out dough to 1/8 inch thick.  Cut into 4 x 5 inch rectangles.  Place a small amount of pumpkin puree in the center of half of the rectangles, and use a finger to spread water around the edges.  Place another rectangle of dough on the top and smooth the edges down to seal in the puree. Use a fork to crimp the edges.

Bake for 20 minutes or until golden!

Enjoy.
