Delightful Fall Treat: Spiced Pumpkin Tartlets Recipe

Seasonal Dessert: Spiced Pumpkin Tartlets

Today, I’m excited to share a cozy and fragrant dessert perfect for the fall season — Spiced Pumpkin Tartlets. These individual treats are bursting with warm spices and creamy pumpkin, making them a delightful addition to any holiday gathering or cozy night in.

Ingredients:

• 200g pumpkin puree
• 120ml heavy cream
• 100g brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ginger
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp cloves
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 pre-made pie crust, rolled out

Kitchen Tools:

• mixing bowl
• whisk
• measuring cups
• tartlet pans
• oven

To begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, brown sugar, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

Next, gently press the pie crust into individual tartlet pans, trimming any excess dough. Pour the pumpkin mixture into each tartlet shell, filling it to the top.

Bake the tartlets in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. The aroma of warm spices will fill your kitchen, letting you know they’re almost ready.

Once baked, remove the tartlets from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. These Spiced Pumpkin Tartlets are delicious warm or at room temperature, topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 800g, with 8 servings. Each serving weighs around 100g, with an estimated calorie count of 250 per serving.

One unique tip for this recipe is to sprinkle a pinch of freshly ground black pepper on top of each tartlet before baking. The pepper adds a subtle, surprising kick that complements the warm spices beautifully.

I hope you enjoy making and indulging in these Spiced Pumpkin Tartlets as much as I do. Feel free to customize them with your favorite toppings or serve them alongside a hot cup of tea for the perfect autumn treat. Happy baking!
