Hello everybody, it’s Brad, welcome to my recipe page. Today, I will show you a way to prepare a special dish, pumpkin pie. It is one of my favorites food recipes. For mine, I am going to make it a bit tasty. This is gonna smell and look delicious.
The easiest and best pumpkin pie I've ever made. The bottom of my crust was still a tad underdone so I would suggest pre-baking the crust for a bit. For many of us, homemade pumpkin pie is the classic dish that says "Thanksgiving," pure and simple.
Pumpkin Pie is one of the most favored of recent trending foods on earth. It is easy, it is quick, it tastes delicious. It’s enjoyed by millions every day. Pumpkin Pie is something that I’ve loved my entire life. They’re nice and they look fantastic.
To get started with this recipe, we must first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook pumpkin pie using 11 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Pumpkin Pie:
- Prepare 1 pie crust (store bought or homemade)
- Take 1 can (15 oz.) pumpkin puree
- Take 1 1/4 cup brown sugar
- Prepare 3 large eggs
- Prepare 1 tbsp. cornstarch
- Make ready 1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
- Get 1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
- Get 1/2 tsp. salt
- Prepare 1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
- Get 1 cup heavy cream
- Take 1/4 cup milk (any kind)
Return the pie shell to the baking. Cut pumpkin in half lengthwise; discard seeds. For the cranberries: Place cranberries in a large bowl; set aside. Pumpkin pie is one of those pies you can easily make a day or two ahead.
Steps to make Pumpkin Pie:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, brown sugar and eggs until combined. Then whisk in the cornstarch, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, salt and pepper. Lastly, whisk in the cream and milk until it is all smooth and combined.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lay out your pie crust over a 9" pie dish. Tuck it into the bottom gently, then use a sharp knife to trim off any overhang if necessary. Crimp the sides and use a fork to poke a few holes into the bottom of the crust. Brush the edges lightly with a beaten egg. Then you'll want to pre-bake the crust. Grab a square of parchment paper, place it into the pie crust and either pour in pie weights or dried beans and bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove the crust and take out the pie weights/beans. Pour the pumpkin pie mixture into the warm crust and bake for 50-60 minutes. After about 25 minutes, layer foil around the edges or use a pie shield to keep the crust from browning too much. When the pie is done, it will still have a slight wobbly spot in the center.
- Remove the pie from the oven and place it on a wire rack. Let it cool for 3 or so hours. Then serve or chill it to serve at a later time.
You can make both the crust and the filling in advance, refrigerate them separately, and then bake them the day of. Or you can make the pie, loosely wrap it in plastic wrap and keep it chilled in the refrigerator for up to two days. It's is the best pumpkin pie because it actually has a bit of spice in it. Other recipes taste like a big ball of sugar and cinnamon.
