Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a baking sheet with butter.
- Mix together pumpkin, honey, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium bowl.
- Cut phyllo dough into vertical strips about 2 inches wide, and cover the pile of phyllo strips with a clean, damp tea towel.
- Lay one phyllo strip flat on a workspace in front of you. Using a pastry brush, brush the surface of the phyllo dough with an even coat of melted butter. Place a tablespoon of the pumpkin filling at the end of the phyllo strip. Starting at the end with the pumpkin filling, fold the phyllo dough over as you would a flag until the phyllo is the shape of a triangle. Place on baking sheet.
- Repeat until all of the pumpkin filling is used up.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the tops of the triangles are golden brown.
