Ingredients

  • 3 lbs. baked and pureed pumpkin (fresh or canned)
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. ground nutmeg
  • 20 sheets phyllo dough
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a baking sheet with butter.
  • Mix together pumpkin, honey, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium bowl.
  • Cut phyllo dough into vertical strips about 2 inches wide, and cover the pile of phyllo strips with a clean, damp tea towel.
  • Lay one phyllo strip flat on a workspace in front of you. Using a pastry brush, brush the surface of the phyllo dough with an even coat of melted butter. Place a tablespoon of the pumpkin filling at the end of the phyllo strip. Starting at the end with the pumpkin filling, fold the phyllo dough over as you would a flag until the phyllo is the shape of a triangle. Place on baking sheet.
  • Repeat until all of the pumpkin filling is used up.
  • Bake for 30 minutes or until the tops of the triangles are golden brown.
