These pumpkin pie tacos feature creamy spiced pumpkin filling wrapped in warm, cinnamon-sugar taco shells, making them a fun and festive fall dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 small flour tortillas
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • Whipped cream (optional)
  • Chopped pecans (optional)
  • Caramel drizzle (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, heavy cream, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  3. Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Brush both sides of each tortilla with melted butter, then sprinkle generously with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  4. Fold the tortillas gently in half and place them upright on the prepared baking sheet, using crumpled foil to help them hold their shape if necessary.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until crisp and lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  6. Once the taco shells have cooled, spoon the pumpkin filling into each shell. Add your desired toppings such as whipped cream, chopped pecans, or caramel drizzle.
  7. Arrange the tacos on a platter and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes

[‘Don’t skip the cinnamon-sugar coating—it’s what makes these tacos extra special.’, ‘Cool the taco shells completely before filling them to prevent them from softening.’, ‘If the pumpkin mixture feels too thick, add a splash of milk or cream to loosen it up.’, ‘Prepare the filling a day in advance and store it in the fridge in an airtight container.’, ‘Get creative with toppings like crushed graham crackers or chocolate chips.’]
