Pumpkin Pasties

Pumpkin Pasties: Sweet and spicy pumpkin filling inside a flaky crust. This Harry Potter inspired treat puts pumpkin pie into the palm of your hand.

Anything from the trolly dear?

If you’re a Harry Potter fan like me changes are you’ve spent hours, days, or weeks dreaming about living in the wizarding world.

What would you do first? My top 3:

1. READ: Even the textbooks sound fascinating.
2. Have my (liberated, and very well paid) house elf clean my home.
3. Visit Honeydukes, and eat one of everything because sweets duh!

Let’s drown our sorrows in the fact that house elves don’t exist in these tasty pumpkin pasties.  Sweet and spicy pumpkin filling inside a flaky pie crust. To make them even more decadent top them off with a spiced glaze.

Perfect for Thanksgiving dessert, or just munching on while reading a good book!
