Fall is all about creating a feeling of warmth and comfort. The aroma of warm spices, roasted pumpkins, simmering soups, creates that comforting ambiance. Though after shifting to Dubai the seasons that we got to enjoy are pleasant summer, summer, extreme summer, and a tiny winter, I try to enjoy all the seasons I saw growing up in India by creating a similar environment at my home. So, even when the average temperature in Dubai is around 40°C these days, I have started cooking my fall recipes which you are seeing on my blog too.  And, today I am sharing another very easy vegetarian fall recipe- Pumpkin puff pastry with cream cheese. This delicious puff pastry has a flaky, crunchy cover and warm, creamy filling of pumpkin and cream cheese. It’s very easy to make and gets ready within 30 minutes.

Ingredients required and substitute suggestions

This pumpkin puff pastry needs only 8 ingredients which are very easily available everywhere.

Making pumpkin pie spice at home

If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice no need to go to the market for buying. Just mix the following spices and your homemade pumpkin spice is ready:

Cinnamon powder:  4 teaspoons Ginger powder: 2 teaspoons Cloves powder: 1 teaspoon Nutmeg powder: ½ teaspoon Ground allspice mix: ½ teaspoon

This will yield around 2.5 tablespoons of pumpkin pie spice

Tips for the recipe

The quantity of sugar used in the recipe may vary depending upon the sweetness of your pumpkin and your taste preference. You can also make these puffs without cream cheese if you like. Chocolate lovers may also drizzle chocolate sauce on top instead of sugar glaze. Don’t drizzle the glaze on hot puffs.
