Instructions
Pumpkin Pierogis
Prepare your dumpling dough. You can find the details from the link in the post.
Combine pumpkin puree, brown sugar, nutmeg, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix well.
Spoon appropriate amount of pumpkin mixture into center of dough. Somewhere between 1-2 tablespoons.
Crimp edges and set aside for cooking later.
To freeze for later, lay pumpkin pockets on a baking sheet and freeze for about 4 hours. Take out and store in plastic freezer bags for later use.
Cream Sauce
Sauté onions, garlic, and bacon for about 5 minutes or until bacon starts to cook but not completely done.
Add chopped apple to pan and cook for another 5 minutes or until bacon is completely cooked and apples are soft. Take off heat and set aside.
In a medium pot melt butter and whisk in flour to make thick paste.
Whisk in cream and milk. Add apple bacon mixture and bring to a simmer to thicken sauce and keep warm. Make sure not to burn the bottom of sauce.
In bacon pan, sauté the raw pumpkin pierogis for a few minutes on each side until browned.
Pour warm cream sauce on top of cooked pierogis and serve.
