Empanadas de Calabaza capture the comforting essence of northern Mexican home cooking. These pumpkin-filled pastries are a staple in many households, especially when the harvest yields an abundance of calabaza. Their presence often transforms an ordinary day into a small celebration, as their enticing aroma invites everyone to gather and enjoy a moment of warmth and flavor. The empanadas boast a tender, flaky crust that gives way to a sweet, spiced filling of pumpkin, piloncillo, and cinnamon.
