Have you heard about hand pies? To me, they kind of seem like real life, wholesome substitutes for pop-tarts. Make up a batch of hand pies the night before, and then stick one in every person’s hand as they leave for work and school the next morning. See? Hand pies. Tasty, quick, easy, and filling for breakfast.

Now, these Pumpkin Spice Hand Pies, mmmm. I mean, it’s pumpkin spice season right? What could be more festive and more perfect than to celebrate with an amazing breakfast your entire family can take on the go. Also, just in case you were wondering, these pumpkin spice hand pies make an excellent dessert as well, already portioned just right. And they are a little less messy than the Pumpkin Spice Latte Bread we love so much, so that’s another hand pie bonus.

Our Pumpkin Spice Hand Pies are super easy to make because we use refrigerated puff pastry dough — and I always find that the dough is the hardest part of any pie, don’t you? So now that we’ve got that out of the way, all you have to do is mix up the filling, drop a little onto the circle you cut into the dough, add another circle of dough on top and pinch the edges together. Easy peasy!

Mini Pumpkin Spice Hand Pies

  • Author: Amy Blevins
Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp flour
  • 1 package puff pastry (thawed)
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp milk
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 Tbsp water
  • 3 Tbsp coarse white sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Beat egg and water in a small bowl, set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, add in cream cheese, pumpkin puree, cinnamon, pie spice, brown sugar, and milk. Whisk together until smooth. Set aside.
  4. On a floured surface, unfold one puff pastry and roll out to create a 12-inch square. Using a two-inch circle cookie cutter, cut out 16 circles. Repeat with the extra sheet, and set that aside.
  5. Fill 16 circles with 1 ½ teaspoons of pumpkin mixture. Brush the edges with egg mixture. Top with another circle puff pastry. Pinch the edges together and crimp ends with a fork.
  6. Brush the top of the pastry pies with egg mixture, cut three small slits on top of the pies. Sprinkle with coarse sugar. Place pies onto baking sheets. Bake 20 minutes, or until the pies are golden colored.
  7. Remove from oven and allow to cool for ten minutes.

Our Latest Shenanigans

See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I thought they were goners. See, my sister gave us the bulbs for Asiatic Lillies for Christmas last year, down in a bag full of dirt and told us to take them home and plant them in the cold so they would rest and come back next year. Or freeze them. I did neither. I knew we weren’t in our own home yet, and we were hoping to move into our forever home this summer, so I threw them in the closet and waited. They stayed dormant, and started to develop roots in the Spring, still in the bag in my closet. Come June 5, we moved into our new house, and I pulled out the bag around June 15 to plant them and found that the roots were turning to mush. The bulbs were starting to rot. I planted them anyway, but to make matters worse, I accidentally planted them upside down because I thought the roots were actually sprouts. Oops. Then, I hired my boys and their friends to weed the bed where these are planted and forgot to tell them to leave these alone. The “sprouts” disappeared. I thought they were gone forever. Here it is the middle of August, and a week or so ago, I found these baby Asiatic Lillies coming up. I texted a pic to my sis to ask if this was what they look like. Sure enough after all that trauma, this gift survived. I won’t have blooms this year, but I’m told they will come back next year and survive to bloom. What a sweet blessing that will be, God willing. And a sweet reminder to persevere under trials and hardship. God is doing something bigger, something hidden, something better than we can ever imagine. Hang in there! #momlife #momfierce #momforthewin #firmlyplanted
Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff, especially the unmasking of pedophilia and it’s prominence in the US and in our backyards. This horrifies and frightens me. I am so grateful to know that God will prevail. In the end, He wins. Everything seems so dark here in the US and it’s because of the spiritual forces of evil — but I know God will prevail. His love never fails. I’m putting my hope in this truth. #loveneverfails #godwins #godisgreater #momlife #momfierce

There are so many things I need to tell you about There are so many things I need to tell you about this picture. First #sheisloved campaign with @mercyhouseglobal and sheispriceless.org - check that out it’s important. Second - that cute bracelet came from @mercyhouseglobal about a month ago and *didn’t fit*. Today it’s loose enough to twist. I haven’t lost a lot of pounds according to the scale — I kinda stalled out three or four weeks ago at 17 pounds lost — but apparently I’m losing fat. That’s a victory. Third, my hands look like my moms and will some day look like my grandmas. I consider that a blessing.  Finally, it’s been a beautiful day😍 but I’m kinda sad it took me this long to find a red marker and share the love. If you have one handy, it’s not too late to jump on board with @wearethatfamily and be a world-changer! #worldchanger #momfierce #prayformoms #especiallyteenmomsinkenya #mymomrocks
