For the Mini Pumpkin Pies
- 2 deep dish frozen pie crusts 9-inch each, thawed
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 egg beaten (for brushing and binding)
- 6- inch lollipop sticks optional
For the Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 –4 tablespoons maple syrup adjust for desired consistency
Prepare the crusts:
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Unroll the thawed pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Using a round or seasonal cookie cutter, cut out circles (about 3 inches in diameter).
Make the filling:
In a small bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, brown sugar, maple syrup, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
Assemble the pops:
Place half of the crust circles on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of pumpkin filling into the center of each.
If using, gently insert a lollipop stick into the filling so it reaches halfway through the circle.
Brush the edges with beaten egg.
Top with the remaining crust circles and press edges firmly with a fork to seal.
Brush and bake:
Lightly brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
Cool and glaze:
Let the pie pops cool slightly on a wire rack.
Whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla, and maple syrup until smooth, then drizzle or brush over the pops.
