Zubereitung von Cinnamon Pumpkin Empanadas Empanadas De Calabazas

**Make the Pumpkin Filling:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and set aside.
**Prepare the Dough:** In a large bowl, dissolve 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast in 1/2 cup warm water (105-115°F). Add 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon baking powder. Stir until combined.
Gradually add 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour to the wet ingredients, mixing with an electric mixer on low speed until a shaggy dough forms.
Add 1/2 cup vegetable shortening and mix until incorporated. Gradually add the remaining 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky.
Divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Shape each part into 4 dough balls (total of 16).
On a lightly floured surface, flatten each dough ball into a 4-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. (You can use a rolling pin or flatten with your hands).
Place approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons of pumpkin filling in the center of each circle.
Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Crimp the edges with a fork to seal, moistening the edges with water if needed.
Place the empanadas on a greased baking sheet.
**Bake:** Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
