Ingredients

Scale

Chorizo

  • 1 pound chorizo

Pumpkin Puree

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree

Onions

  • 2 medium onions, sliced

Puff Pastry

  • 1 package puff pastry, thawed

Cheese

  • 1 cup shredded cheese (e.g., cheddar)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a skillet, cook the chorizo over medium heat until it begins to brown. Add sliced onions and continue to cook until they are caramelized, about 10 minutes. Stir in the pumpkin puree and combine well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Roll Out the Pastry: On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into squares or circles, depending on your preferred hand-pie shape.
  3. Assemble the Hand-Pies: Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each pastry piece. Top with a sprinkle of cheese, then fold the pastry over and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
  4. Bake: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the hand-pies on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush the tops with an egg wash for a golden finish. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

  • Don’t Overfill: Keep the filling to a reasonable amount to ensure the hand-pies seal properly and don’t burst while baking.
  • Use Cold Pastry: Keeping the puff pastry cold until baking will help achieve a flaky texture.
  • Experiment with Spices: Feel free to add your favorite spices to the filling for a personal touch.
  • Brush with Milk: For a beautiful golden crust, brush the tops with milk instead of egg.
  • Let Them Cool: Allow the hand-pies to cool for a few minutes before serving to avoid burns and enhance flavor.
