Sweet Roasted Pumpkin Pie Recipe and Photos

in #food7 years ago (edited)

Halloween is over so other than a bird feeder I make a pumpkin pie each year.

Sadly this year I used a new recipe had a bit of a mad day and the actual pie ended up in the bin.

I liked the recipe I used however I under cooked the pie and rushed it.

Recipe

Ingredients

For the Pie Filling

1 Pumpkin
Ground Cinnamon
Nutmeg
Ground ginger
2 eggs
25g butter
175ml milk

For the Pie Pastry

350g of Sweet Short Crust or to make by hand

300g of plain flower
170g of butter
1 egg

Method

  1. Firstly cut the Pumpkin into 4. I cut a circle out the top as normal then slice into quarters.

  3. Place in fridge to chill for at least 1 hour.

  4. Once chilled, roll to cover a 22cm tart tin. Blind bake for 10 minutes at Gas Mark 7 and then drop temp down to Gas Mark 4 for a further 10-15 until lightly baked.

Now here's the part with no photos, as my Sunday ended in a food disaster.

  1. Scoop out the pumpkin from the skin. Either sieve or wizz in the processor for a smooth consistency.

  2. Melt 25g of butter, add 175ml of milk and 2 whisked eggs into the soft pumpkin.

  3. Add the pumpkin to the Pastry and bake for 40 minutes!

And hopefully you should have a nice tasty pie!
