Pumpkin Pasties

Ingredients:
One recipe of pie crust
One can of cooked pumpkin
One egg
2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice
One cup of sugar
One beaten egg mixed with 2 tablespoons of milk for eggwash
Extra sugar for sprinkling

Directions:
Prepare the pie crust and chill. Prepare pumpkin filling by combining the pumpkin, egg, spice and sugar. Roll out dough between two sheets of waxed paper. Cut into rounds with a large biscuit cutter. Place a tablespoon of filling on one side of the round. Brush the edges of the round with the beaten egg and fold over. Using a fork, press the edges together with the tines. It will make a design around the edges. Repeat with the remaining rounds. Brush each pastie with the egg-wash mixture and sprinkle with sugar. Bake in a 350º oven for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Cool and serve.
