Instructions

To Make the Pastries:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line baking sheets with parchment paper sheets.
Place the hazelnut meal, brown sugar, eggs, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt in a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
Lightly dust the work surface with flour, and roll the pie dough out to a thickness of ⅛-inch. Cut 24 squares. Discard the scraps.
Top 12 of the squares with 2-3 tablespoons of filling, leaving a margin around the edge.
Moisten the edge with water, then top with another square of dough. Pinch to seal.
Bake for 18 minutes or until golden brown and puffy. Cool slightly, then top with Icing.

To Make the Icing:

Place the powdered sugar, Greek yogurt, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and stir together until combined.
