Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add corn, onion and pepper; cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in pumpkin, black beans and seasonings; heat through. Cool slightly.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, unroll pastry sheets. Cut 60 pumpkins with a 3-in. floured pumpkin-shaped or round cookie cutter, rerolling dough as necessary. Place half of the pumpkins 2 in. apart on parchment paper-lined baking sheets; top each with about 1 tablespoon pumpkin mixture. Using a knife, cut jack-o'-lantern faces or slits out of the remaining pastries. Place over the top of the pumpkin mixture; press edges with a fork to seal.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk egg and water; brush over pastries. Bake until golden brown, 12-15 minutes. Remove from pan to wire racks.
