Pumpkin Turnovers

Pumpkin Turnovers

Canned pumpkin would make these really easy. You could do small ‘open-face’ tarts for a party.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 25” squares of puff pastry
  • 1/2 cup cooked, mashed pumpkin
  • 1/4 cup soft goat cheese
  • 1 tsp Dijon-style mustard
  • 8 green, pimiento-stuffed olives, sliced

Instructions

  • Thaw the puff pastry, if needed, and cut 2 tarts..
  • Mix pumpkin, goat cheese, mustard and olives.
  • Lay pastry on baking sheet, either nonstick or lightly oiled.
  • Divide the pumpkin mixture and place on half, diagonally
  • Fold the pastry (corner to corner) and crimp the edges with your fingers.
  • Bake in a pre-heated oven at 400F (200C) for 12 – 15 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Remove turnovers to plates and serve.

Notes

Substitute butternut or other winter squash for the pumpkin. If you need to cook raw squash either roast or steam small pieces for 15 – 20 minutes (depending on size)
