Provided by Maneet Chauhan

Time 1h10m

Yield 12 puffs

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 small red onion, minced
1 cup grated raw pumpkin (from one 8-ounce piece, peeled)
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon garam masala
Kosher salt
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup shredded American cheese
1/2 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
2 17-ounce boxes frozen puff pastry (4 sheets), thawed
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 large egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Start by making the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the red onion and cook until almost tender and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the grated pumpkin, cilantro, ginger, garam masala and a pinch of salt and continue to cook until the pumpkin is softened, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl; let cool completely.
  • Stir the Swiss, American and cheddar cheeses into the pumpkin mixture; season with salt.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Unfold the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut out 24 pumpkins with a 4-inch cutter; arrange half on the prepared baking sheet. If desired, cut out jack-o?-lantern faces from the remaining pumpkins using a paring knife. Heap 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of each pumpkin on the baking sheet and brush the egg wash around the edges of each. Put the remaining puff pastry pumpkins on top. Seal the edges with a fork, then brush with more egg wash. Bake until golden and puffed, 20 to 25 minutes.

Peter Pumpkin Eater's Stuffed Pumpkin Soup image

Pumpkin Cream Puffs image

Impressive, but surprisingly simple to make. A classic puff recipe with a delicious variation in the filling for your fall and winter table.

Provided by CarolynWG

Categories     Fruits and Vegetables     Vegetables     Squash

Time 1h

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup butter
1 cup water
1 pinch salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 eggs
2 cups heavy cream
½ cup confectioners' sugar, plus extra for dusting
1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, or to taste, plus extra for dusting
½ (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Place the butter, water, and salt in a heavy saucepan, and bring to a full rolling boil. Stir in the flour and beat vigorously until the mixture forms a ball. Place the dough ball in a mixing bowl, and beat in the eggs, one at a time, adding the next egg when the last one has been fully incorporated.
  • Drop dough by tablespoons onto an ungreased baking sheet, and bake until the puffs rise and are golden brown on top, with fully-cooked insides, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool before filling. Cut the cream puffs horizontally with a serrated knife.
  • To make filling, place the cream in the work bowl of an electric mixer, and whip until beginning to thicken, about 1 minute. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and pumpkin pie spice until well-mixed, and continue mixing until the cream forms soft peaks, about 3 minutes.
  • Use a rubber spatula or wire whisk to fold 1/3 of the pumpkin puree into the whipped cream. Gently run the spatula through the center of the bowl, then around the sides of the bowl, repeating until fully incorporated. Add the remaining pumpkin puree, folding just until incorporated.
  • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the pumpkin cream filling into each puff, and dust the top of each puff with confectioners' sugar and a pinch of pumpkin pie spice for garnish. Refrigerate leftovers.

IRISH BEER CHEESE PUFFS



Irish Beer Cheese Puffs image

While this is by no means an authentic Irish recipe, I do use Irish beer, Irish butter, and sharp Irish Cheddar (along with a French technique!) to make these easy, cheesy puffs that are perfect for entertaining. Delicious to eat alone or with this spring onion and mascarpone spread.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 tablespoons Irish-style butter
½ cup Irish stout beer (such as Guinness® Extra Stout)
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon white sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
¾ cup grated sharp Irish Cheddar cheese, plus more to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups chopped leeks, washed thoroughly and drained
½ teaspoon kosher salt, or more to taste
2 tablespoons water, or as needed
½ cup sliced green onions
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
½ cup mascarpone cheese
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner (such as Silpat®).
  • Combine butter, beer, salt, and sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Let butter melt and bring to a simmer. Add flour all at once and stir with a wooden spoon until it all comes together, about 30 seconds. Continue to cook and stir until the dough dries out a bit and starts sticking to the bottom of the pan, another minute or so. Turn off the heat and continue stirring for another 1 to 2 minutes, scraping as much off the bottom of the pan as you can.
  • Transfer dough into a bowl. Add one egg and whisk it into a bit of the hot dough. Keep whisking in more dough until incorporated. Repeat with remaining egg, cleaning out the whisk as needed, until well combined and dough is sticky.
  • Add ¾ cup Cheddar cheese and cayenne and stir until incorporated.
  • Scoop 12 rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Press a little Cheddar on the tops and sides of each puff.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until nicely puffed and beautifully browned, about 25 minutes. Turn off the oven and crack the door; let cheese puffs cool, undisturbed, for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the spread: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add leek and ½ teaspoon salt; cook and stir until just barely tender, 7 to 10 minutes, adding a splash of water every few minutes to prevent browning.
  • Stir in green onions and sauté briefly for 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer leek-onion mixture to a bowl and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Add lemon juice and mascarpone cheese and mix until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until cheese puffs have finished cooling.
  • Serve cheese puffs with spread.

Tips:

  • Use a stand mixer with a paddle attachment to mix the batter. This will help to ensure that the batter is smooth and well-combined.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, chewy cheese puffs.
  • Use a small cookie scoop to drop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet. This will help to ensure that the cheese puffs are all the same size.
  • Bake the cheese puffs until they are golden brown and puffed up. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Serve the cheese puffs warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Peter Pumpkin Cheese Puffs are a delicious and easy-to-make snack. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a quick snack. With a few simple ingredients, you can make these cheese puffs in no time. So next time you are looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give Peter Pumpkin Cheese Puffs a try.
