Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons ice water
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons milk for icing

Method
 

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the cold cubed butter and mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into rectangles, approximately 3 inches by 4 inches. You should have enough for 8 rectangles (4 tops and 4 bottoms).
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Place 4 rectangles on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the pumpkin mixture onto the center of each rectangle, leaving a border around the edges.
  6. Place the remaining rectangles on top of the filled ones and press the edges to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
  7. Brush the tops with the beaten egg. Cut a few small slits in the top of each pop tart to allow steam to escape.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  9. In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar with milk until smooth to create the icing. Drizzle over the cooled pop tarts.
