If you have a bit of leftover pumpkin from muffins/bread/whatever, this is a delicious way to use it. (Thanks Whole Foods for your recipe emails!) The pie dough is kinda wet so be careful.

==Pie Dough==
* 1 egg, beaten
* ¼ cup olive oil
* ¼ cup orange juice
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* ¾ cup whole wheat flour

==Pumpkin and Mushroom Filling==
* 6 tablespoons canned pumpkin
* ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
* 2 tablespoons chopped sage plus 4 whole leaves
* Salt and pepper to taste
* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1 shallot, chopped
* 1 lb. cremini mushrooms, sliced
* ¼ cup red wine
* ¼ cup cooked lentils
* 1 egg yolk

==Method==
For the dough, mix together egg, oil, juice and 1/4 cup water in a medium bowl until combined. Add both flours and mix until dough is smooth. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Meanwhile, for the filling, mix together pumpkin, feta cheese, chopped sage, salt and pepper. Set aside. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until hot but not smoking. Add shallots and cook until translucent and aromatic, about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and cook until they have released their liquid, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in wine, scraping to release any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Cook until wine has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Set skillet aside.

Preheat oven to 375°F. Remove dough from refrigerator about 15 minutes before you plan to assemble pies to allow it to soften before rolling. Divide dough in half. Working on a well-floured surface, roll each piece of dough into an 8-inch circle. Divide lentils between the two pieces of dough and spread out to cover each, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top each with half of the pumpkin mixture, followed by half of the mushroom mixture. Moisten the edge of the dough with a little water, then fold each circle over the filling to make a half-circle and seal each pie by pinching its edges between your fingers firmly. Beat egg yolk and 1 tablespoon water together in a small bowl to make an egg wash. Brush each pie with a bit of the egg wash, then poke 3 or 4 holes in the top of each to allow moisture to escape. Arrange whole sage leaves on top of the pies, brushing the bottom of each leaf with a bit of the egg wash to secure them in place.

Bake pies on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
