Mini pumpkin pies a.k.a. Kolokithopitakia

Method

1. Boil the rice for about 10’ minutes, drain and set aside.
2. In a large nonstick pan, add the coconut oil and sauté the pumpkin in medium heat for about 2-3’ minutes.
3. Add the rice, coconut sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, mix well to combine and remove from heat.
4. Cut the sheets of phyllo dough in the middle and also cut every half piece in 3 even stripes.
5. Add about 2 tsp of the filling in the top of every stripe, fold the sides inward so that the filling doesn’t spill out and roll. Add a small amount of water to the edge so that it can stick and seal the cigar.
6. Whisk the egg and brush the mini pies with it. Bake at 200*C until golden brown for about half an hour.
