Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry to about 1/8 inch thickness on a lightly floured surface.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the canned pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and ground cloves. Mix until smooth.
  4. Spread the pumpkin filling evenly over the puff pastry, leaving a 1-inch border.
  5. Fold the pastry border over to seal the edges and cut into 1-inch wide strips.
  6. Twist each strip a few times and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then dust with powdered sugar if desired.
