Ingredients
For The Pie Crust:
- 1 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Cold And Cubed
- 1/4 cup Ice-Cold Water
For The Pumpkin Filling:
- 1 cup Pumpkin Puree Canned Or Freshly Cooked
- 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp Ground Cloves
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 cup Heavy Cream
- 2 Eggs Large
- Whipped Cream For Garnish (Optional)
Instructions
For the Pie Crust:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.
- Using a pastry blender or fork, cut the cold cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add ice-cold water, a few tablespoons at a time, and mix with a fork until the dough comes together.
- Gather the dough into a ball, flatten it into a disk, and wrap it in plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling out.
For the Pumpkin Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and vanilla extract.
- Stir in the heavy cream until well combined.
- Beat the eggs separately and fold them into the pumpkin mixture until smooth.
Assembling and Baking the Pie:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
- On a floured surface, roll out the chilled pie dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Carefully transfer the dough to the pie dish and gently press it into the bottom and sides.
- Pour the pumpkin filling into the pie crust.
- Bake the Pumpkin Pie for about 45-50 minutes or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
- Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before serving to set the filling.
- If desired, garnish each slice with a dollop of whipped cream before serving.
