Cinnamon Whipped Cream:
1cupof heavy whipping cream
Powdered sugar to taste
½tspvanilla extract
¼tspground cinnamon
Other Ingredients:
2pre-made pie crusts
Instructions
Make the pumpkin filling by combining all of the ingredients together in a bowl then mix thoroughly.
Make the walnut mixture by grinding the walnuts, brown sugar, and diced butter in a food processor. Pulse until it is crumbly. Set aside.
Make the cinnamon whipped cream by beating together the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, to taste, vanilla extract, and cinnamon with a hand mixer until the cream is thick and fluffy. Place into the refrigerator until needed.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Coat 2 mini muffin trays with cooking spray.
Prepare the crusts by laying the pie crusts out on a floured surface. Cut them into rounds using a cookie cutter or drinking glass upside down and push them down firmly. You should be able to get approximately 10 tartlet shells from each pie shell.
Gently press the rounds into the muffin tin. This is easier if you form them into a slight cup shape first so you don't poke a hole through them.
Pour 1 tablespoon of the pumpkin filling in each shell. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the walnut topping on top of each tartlet.
Place into the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes or until the pie crusts are golden brown. Let cool.
Serve topped with homemade cinnamon whipped cream. Enjoy.
