Ingredients

  • ¼ cup pumpkin puree 63g
  • 1 tablespoon mascarpone
  • ½ tablespoon maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ sheet puff pastry
  • 1 egg for egg wash (won't use all)
  • ¼ cup bittersweet chocolate chips
  • 1 egg for egg wash (won't need all)

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 400F/200C and line a medium baking sheet/tray.
  2. Blend together the pumpkin puree, mascarpone, maple syrup and cinnamon. 
  3. Cut the pastry into strips about 1in/2.5cm thick. Spread some of the pumpkin mixture on each strip of pastry so there is a thin layer across the top. Dot the top of each strip with chocolate chips then carefully twist each strip so the pastry holds the filling inside it in a twist (see pics above). 
  4. Transfer the strips to the baking sheet/tray and brush the top with egg wash. Bake for approx 15 minutes until golden brown on top. Allow them to cool a couple minutes before serving so the pastry can firm up a bit.
