PUMPKIN EMPANADAS: How to Make Sweet, Delicious Pumpkin Empanadas from Scratch

[@adamalvarez2665]

I enjoyed this dough recipe the most for the palate here In Albuquerque! I had some yams left over from Thanksgiving so I mixed the pumpkin purée with the yams and it was so much more flavorful than just the pumpkin - sprinkling cinnamon sugar mix on top was the final touch!

[@vulturedancer]

Our neighbor gifted us a pumpkin for Halloween so I decided to make Empanadas for Christmas. My partner devoured most of them and asked for more. Getting ready to make a second batch for New Year. We got a bakers dozen out of this recipe. They reminded me of my moms pumpkin empanadas. Gracias Marcy. 🙏🏽❤️

[@marcyinspired1442]

Niiice! Any time someone compares my recipes to their mom's, it makes me happy. Hope you're still enjoying those empanadas. Happy New Year!

[@CC-en7kq]

I made this yesterday, it's so easy and delicious! The only thing that was difficult, is that you can't stop eating them😃Thank you for sharing your recipe.

[@marcyinspired1442]

That is too funny. I love it! Thanks for taking the time to let me know. :)

[@maggienguyen8127]

I grew up eating these . No one can make them like my mother can. But I'm sure these. R good.

[@gloriahohman2790]

Oh my goodness...pumpkin empanadas. I'll be turning my pumpkins into this recipe. I love anything pumpkin and empanadas period!!!❤

[@anitajortiz6370]

Ok, update: I did make the empanadas using your recipe. And they turned out delicious 😋. Started using my blender to soften puree but it was taking too long so I went the old fashioned way and used my bean masher instead. It worked like a charm. Other than that everything else worked out smoothly. Thank you once again for your amazing recipe.

[@marcyinspired1442]

I'm so happy to hear that. Only wish I could sample one!

[@bettydavis1833]

I love your Mom making your initials in your emanada's! How dang cute! I loved the recipe! Yummy!!

[@marcyinspired1442]

She still does that to this day, and we, of course, love it. ❤️Thanks for watching and for the sweet comment.

[@corinamartinez8320]

Hi, thank you for the recipe it was so easy and delicious. My family loved them. I used my own pumpkin puree like you showed. Which was also easy to do. Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart.

[@marcyinspired1442]

Thank YOU for such a sweet comment. I'm thrilled you made them and liked them.

[@marym1485]

Thank you. When I lived in AZ pumpkin empanadas were easy to find. Not the case in GA so I will make my own thanks to your recipe.

[@marcyinspired1442]

Peach empanadas would be so yummy, too! Thanks for watching!

[@charminbutterfly32]

​@marcyinspired1442 the ingredients for peach empanadas, is it the same measurements ? I'm sure you don't use the pumpkin spice. Peach sounded really good, but my favorite is pumpkin for sure.

[@rlmolinar9304]

Your technique was very helpful. I look forward to making empanadas this holiday season!

[@marcyinspired1442]

Thanks. I'm happy you found it helpful. These empanadas will surely be a hit!

[@bellyfulochelly4222]

I also had lots of leftover pumpkin from the harvest season, so I tried this recipe yesterday for a school function and I received so many compliments! In my opinion, it's really the perfect recipe for empanadas (if you like the pie crust/turnover style, as opposed to the panaderia-style empanada). Thank you so much for posting this video! ❤️

[@marcyinspired1442]

That's awesome. So happy to hear this recipe was enjoyed by so many at your school function. Thanks for taking the time to tell me.

[@stepbro4978]

Just made these today,they came out good,and was not hard to do.I like the fact that this recipe uses one 15 oz can.

[@marcyinspired1442]

So happy this recipe worked for you. Thanks for taking the time to let me know.

Yum! That sounds fantastic! Glad this dough recipe worked for you. Thanks for taking the time to tell me.

[@anitajortiz6370]

that you for the pumpkin empanadas recipe. I just finshed carving out 2 pumpkins and had the puree in the fridge for some empanadas from an old recipe Ive had for sometime. But after watch this video I will most definitely start using your recipe.

[@marcyinspired1442]

Oh, good. Glad you found this recipe, too. Hope you like it.

[@helenmartinez5294]

I'm looking forward to trying out your recipe for the Pumpkin Empanadas , They look simple to make watching your video.. I was raised on a ranch where my parents grew Pumpkins! My mother was always making them and I was never around to watch how she made them, I was either in school or at a job. But I'm excited to try your recipe.. I probably will use the canned pumpkin. My mouth was watering watching you open one and tasting one!! YUM..

[@marcyinspired1442]

That is so cool that you were raised on a ranch where you grew own pumpkins! I'm sure you enjoyed lots of pumpkin goodies. Hope you like these empanadas as much as I do. Thanks for the comment!

[@TinaRivera-o3j]

Recipe : makes 12-15 Me: looking down at my 21 empanadas in horror, trying to figure out what i did wrong

[@marcyinspired1442]

That is too funny. Hope it was a good problem, though.

[@fleurpouvior2967]

It happened when I made the secong batch too! I didn't make them small, and they weren't under filled. But it meant everyone at work got one for the potluck, and there was enough for people who came asking to take extras home. And, I brought the second batch to my patents, my mom loves bakeing and couldn't stop talking about how good they are! I used some extra dough to make a few more with left over turkey, cheese, and taco seasoning as the filling, and still perfect. Love this recipe, shared the video with coworkers

Do you have a recipe for Prune-(Cirhuela) Empanadas?

My favorite empanada. Would a tortilla press work? Thank you.

That's a great question. I never thought to use one. I'll have to give it a try.

When can you come to my house.Looks great 👍. Thanks

[@marcyinspired1442]

[@Kat-fq4ei]

Can the pumpkin turnovers be deep fried instead. Mother would deep fry hers-same as mincemeat empanadas, but I never took note of how she prepared the filling for deep fried pumpkin empanadas.

[@marcyinspired1442]

I have never tried deep frying pumpkin empanadas before, so unfortunately I don’t know the answer to that.

[@Kat-fq4ei]

@@marcyinspired1442 Thank you. I tried your oven baked empanada recipe over the holidays and they turned out yummy. I hadn't had pumpkin empanaditas in decades.

[@francromero7300]

What happens if you over knead the dough?

[@sylviaramirez529]

I noticed you didn’t use yeast, most videos I’ve watched do use it. Is there a difference?

[@ΡουλαΜυλωνα-υ4π]

❤️❤️❤️

[@jagrutiwadekar7882]

How many days I can store it ?

[@marcyinspired1442]

I would say you can refrigerate and store them for about 5 days. But mine never last that long, so I'm erring on the side of caution.

[@jujulilbeans2761]

I used all the water

[@irmagonzalez7336]

I need the ingredients written to write down

[@marcyinspired1442]

All my recipes are written for you in the description box. If you look just beneath the video, you'll see the title, and next to it is a little arrow pointing down that looks like the letter "v" Click that, and you will find everything you need.

[@arcticgummibear4500]

The BEST way to cook pumpkin is to steam it. :)

[@marcyinspired1442]

I've never seen that done. Would you have to cut it up in smaller pieces? Or how does that work on a stovetop? I'll have to try it sometime.

[@arcticgummibear4500]

@@marcyinspired1442 I have a vegetable steamer and yes, I cut it into small enough pieces to fit. I leave it on for about 45 minutes, let it cool and the pumpkins slides right off without any burning, very succulent as well.

[@marcyinspired1442]

@@arcticgummibear4500 Thanks. I appreciate the tip.

[@ramonazelasko1668]

Well I made your recipe but mine didn't look as good as your but again this is my first time doing them my edges were a little to brown an they felt hard must be from the extra flour that I sprinkle on the board but the filling was good I also used a real pumpkin lest over from Halloween cooking on a electric stove an I just don't like them my favorite is cooking with gas 👋 Aloha

[@marcyinspired1442]

I hope you make them again because it always takes a little practice. And, of course, ovens vary, so maybe you can take them out a little sooner. I know what you mean about cooking on an electric stove versus a gas one. I learned to cook on a gas stove and didn't realize how great it was until now that I have an electric range. But we do what we can, right? Also, happy to hear you cooked your Halloween pumpkin. I always hate when people throw away perfectly good pumpkins when they're done decorating with them. Aloha and Mahalo for the comment.😊

[@lendouma3224]

You should have used a tortilla press instead of the rolling pin.

Wish i had one. Im going to get a charlie horse on my tongue.

[@doloreshedger3532]

This lady goes too fast. What's her hurry? Don't share it if you don't want someone to write it down.

I'm sorry you feel I go too fast, but I do put all the ingredients and measurements in the description box beneath each video. Every one of my recipes is written out for you so you don't have to go through the trouble of writing it yourself. If you look to the right of the title, you should see a little arrow pointing down. It looks like the letter "v" Click that and you should be able to see the written recipe. Hope this helps.
