Ingredients
  

For the Taco Shells
  • 12 Flour tortillas 6-inch
  • 2 tablespoons Melted butter
  • 1/4 cup Granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
For the Pumpkin Pie Filling
  • 1 can Pumpkin puree 15 oz
  • 1 can Sweetened condensed milk 14 oz
  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
For Topping
  • Whipped cream for serving
  • Cinnamon for dusting

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a taco mold or shape aluminum foil into taco shapes.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Brush the inside of each tortilla with this mixture.
  3. Drape the tortillas over the taco molds or foil shapes and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  4. While the shells are baking, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until smooth.
  5. Once the taco shells are baked and slightly cooled, carefully fill each one with the pumpkin pie mixture.
  6. Return the filled tacos to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the filling is set. Let them cool completely.
  7. Chill the pumpkin pie tacos in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
  8. Top with whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon before serving.

Notes

You can make the taco shells and filling ahead of time. Store them separately in the refrigerator and assemble just before serving.
