Vegan Blueberry Ghost Hand Pies are the cutest Halloween treat around! Made with flaky puff pastry, sweet blueberry filling, and a tangy lemon glaze, these plant-based pies are easy to make and full of spooky charm. Perfect for Halloween parties or baking with kids.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet vegan puff pastry, thawed
- ½ cup blueberry preserves or jam
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thicker filling)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp plant-based milk (almond, oat, soy)
- Mini vegan chocolate chips (for ghost eyes)
- Flour, for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly flour your work surface.
- Roll out puff pastry and use a ghost-shaped cookie cutter to cut out an even number of shapes (about 16 for 8 hand pies).
- In a small bowl, mix blueberry preserves, lemon zest, and cornstarch if using.
- Spoon 1–2 teaspoons of filling onto the center of half of the cut-outs. Top with the remaining ghost shapes and press edges to seal with a fork.
- Place hand pies on the baking sheet and bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
- While they cool, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, and plant-based milk to make a glaze.
- Drizzle glaze over cooled pies and add two mini chocolate chips for ghost eyes.
- Let glaze set before serving.
Notes
- For a crisper crust, chill the assembled pies for 15 minutes before baking.
- Use gluten-free puff pastry if needed for a gluten-free version.
- Adjust the glaze consistency with more or less plant-based milk to reach desired thickness.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
