  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. Prepare the filling by mixing pumpkin puree, cream cheese, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth.
  5. Spoon the filling onto one side of each pastry rectangle.
  6. Fold the pastry over to create a pocket and seal the edges with a fork.
  7. Twist each sealed pocket several times, then place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
