Mummy Hand Pies Food Network Kitchen

Total prep time: 55 minutes

Yield: 6 servings

Here's what you need:

  • ¼ cup canned pumpkin
  • 2 tbsp. sweetened condensed milk
  • ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp. ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp. ground nutmeg
  • Kosher salt
  • 2 refrigerated pie crusts, thawed if frozen
  • All-purpose flour, for dusting
  • 1 large egg
  • 12 raisins
  • ½ cup confectioners' sugar, optional

Here's how to prepare it:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a medium bowl, add the pumpkin, condensed milk, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt and stir to combine. Set aside.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out 1 pie crust with a rolling pin to form a rectangle about 9 x 12 inches. Square off the crust with a knife and reserve the scraps for decorating. Cut the crust into 6 equal rectangles, each about 3 x 6 inches. Transfer them to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  4. Roll out the other pie crust the same thickness as the first. Cut into thin strips about ¼ -inch-wide and 7 inches long. Repeat with the reserved dough scraps. Transfer the strips to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. In each rectangular crust, put a heaping tablespoon of the pumpkin filling to the center. Spread the filling using the back of a spoon, leaving about a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
  6. In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush the edges of the pies with the egg wash with a pastry brush. Create a "mummy" look by layering the strips of dough. Seal the edges with a fork and trim the overhang with a paring knife. Lightly brush the tops of the hand pies with the egg wash. Or the eyes, add 2 raisins to each hand pie at the upper portion.
  7. Bake, rotating the pan halfway through for even color for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown. Cool the pies on a baking rack slightly for 5 minutes.
  8. Garnish with a simple icing or serve as is. In a small bowl, combine the confectioners' sugar with ½ teaspoon water, and stir until smooth and glossy. Transfer the icing to a resealable bag and cut off the edge. Pipe the icing onto the hand pies using the stripes of the pie crust as a guide. Serve.

Apple Spider Web Pops Recipe

These Apple Spider Web Pops from Food Network Kitchen are thick slices of tart apple dipped in chocolate.

Apple Spider Web Pops by Food Network Kitchen

Total prep time: 50 minutes

Yield: 8 servings

Here's what you need:

  • 2 large Granny Smith apples, stemmed
  • 4 oz. chopped bittersweet chocolate
  • 2 tsp. coconut oil
  • 4 oz. chopped white chocolate

Here's how to prepare it:

  1. Line a baking sheet with a silicon baking mat or parchment.
  2. Cut the apples lengthwise from the stem to bottom into 4 thick slices each. Remove any seeds and keep the core intact. For the round end slices; cut a thin slice off to remove the round portion and so they lay flat. With a wooden ice-pop stick, poke a small hole in the bottom of each slice and push halfway into the apple.
  3. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, add the bittersweet chocolate and 1 teaspoon of the coconut oil and microwave at 50% power for 30-second increments, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. In another medium microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate and remaining 1 teaspoon coconut oil and microwave at 50% power for 30-second increments, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
  4. Dip half of the apple slices entirely in the bittersweet chocolate, and let the excess drip back into the bowl, and place on the prepared baking sheet. Dip the remaining apple slices in the white chocolate. Let sit at room temperature so the chocolate thickens a bit for 10 to 15 minutes.
  5. Transfer the leftover dark and white chocolate to 2 separate small resealable plastic bags and snip a small corner off each bag. Pipe 3 to 4 dark chocolate concentric circles on the white chocolate-dipped apples and visa-versa. Create a spider web design by dragging a toothpick through the circles, starting at the center and working your way out. Refrigerate until hardened for 15 to 20 minutes.
