Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 240g of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of caster sugar, and 1 teaspoon of pumpkin spice. Cut 220g of cold dairy-free butter into the mixture until it resembles sandy crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough comes together. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (fan). Roll out the chilled dough to about ¼ inch thick and cut out pastry pieces using a pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter. Arrange them on lined baking trays, leaving space between each.
- In a separate bowl, combine 100g of pumpkin puree, 50g of maple syrup, 2 teaspoons of cornstarch, and an additional teaspoon of pumpkin spice. Stir until smooth.
- Take half of the pastry shapes and scoop a generous tablespoon of the pumpkin filling onto each. Brush the edges of the filled pastries with dairy-free milk to help seal them.
- Place the remaining pastry shapes on top and press edges together. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 100g of icing sugar, 50g of maple syrup, 100g of pumpkin puree, and a sprinkle of pumpkin spice until thick yet pourable.
- Drizzle the prepared glaze over the cooled pop tarts and let it set for about 10-15 minutes.

Notes
For the best results, keep the butter cold, avoid overfilling, and let the dough chill before rolling out. Experiment with spices for unique flavors.
