Making Homemade Pumpkin Pie Recipe

The ideal Thanksgiving dessert is this pumpkin pie recipe. a golden-brown, buttery, flaky crust encasing a spiced pumpkin interior.

Homemade Pumpkin Pie Recipe with whipped cream on top is a must-have for any autumnal feast.

This time of year is known for its bulky jackets, crunchy leaves, and chilly temperatures. I’m ready for anything pumpkin when fall arrives, including these pumpkin pie cupcakes!

Pumpkin Pie’s ingredients

The ingredients for a pumpkin pie are rather straightforward. It is simple to prepare, and best of all, it should be done in advance, making it a wonderful holiday dessert.

Canned versus homemade pumpkin

Either canned pumpkin or homemade pumpkin puree can be used to make pumpkin pie filling. Both work nicely in this recipe, but because it’s simpler, we like to use canned pumpkins.

Spicy foods

Our normal supply of handmade pumpkin pie spice is also sold in supermarkets. Along with some ground cloves and allspice, it also contains cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. If you’re out, you can use cinnamon or even apple pie spice as a substitute.

Various Ingredients

A few eggs, some canned milk, white sugar, and brown sugar. Simple.

Pumpkin Pie Crust

Although I like making my pie crust, you may also use store-bought pie dough (or even a graham crust).

This recipe does not call for the crust to be pre-baked or blind-baked.

Making Pumpkin Pie

It’s as simple as 1, 2, 3!

1. With a prepared pie crust and a dusting of flour and sugar, line a 9-inch pie dish or pie pan.
2. Whisk together the pie filling.
3. The prepared crust should now contain the pumpkin mixture.

Baking and cooling Voila!

When to Check if the Pumpkin Pie Is Done?

Pumpkin pie will still wobble a little bit after it has finished cooking. It shouldn’t be slick or wavy.

Once cooked, take it out of the oven and set it on a cooling rack to prevent cracking from overcooking.

How to Make a Great Pumpkin Pie?

• The crust is kept from getting mushy by a dusting of flour and sugar.
• Pumpkin pie won’t be wet or wiggly after it’s finished baking, but it will be slightly jiggly.
• Up to two days in advance, pumpkin pie can be prepared and kept in the refrigerator.

Keeping Pumpkin Pie Fresh

Pumpkin pie can be served refrigerated or at room temperature (or even heated a little bit in the oven). I take it out of the fridge about two hours before serving because I love it at room temperature.

Frozen vanilla ice cream or whipped cream can be added.

Given that it is made with milk and eggs, keep homemade pumpkin pie in the refrigerator (and no preservatives). In the fridge, it will last for around 4 days (although it never lasts more than a day in my house).

Getting Cold

You may prepare and freeze a cooked pumpkin pie in advance. Cook as described here and let cool fully. Freeze after completely covering with plastic wrap.

Thaw for at least 24 hours in the refrigerator before serving.

The following Thanksgiving desserts

A holiday meal simply isn’t complete without a delicious dessert:

Classics: We adore traditional pie recipes like apple pie, sweet potato pie, and of course pecan pie.

Inventors: Don’t be afraid to use your imagination when making new favorites like Praline Pumpkin Pie, Apple Crumb Pie, or small pumpkin pie cupcakes.

Not a Pie: Looking for an alternative to your go-to pie recipe? Although it feeds a lot of people, pumpkin crunch cake tastes much like a traditional pie.

A bread pudding or pumpkin bread pudding could be good to try, topped with ice cream or whipped cream. Try fluffy pumpkin dip as a light snack or dessert.

Ingredients

1. The oven should be heated to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Sprinkle the sugar and flour, which have been combined, on the bottom of the pie shell after preparation. Set apart.

Tart filling

1. Put sugar, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a small bowl and mix well.
2. Eggs should be beaten in a big basin before being combined with pumpkin puree and the dry ingredients. The evaporated milk should be added gradually while mixing.
3. Bake for 15 minutes after pouring into the pie shell. Bake for an additional 40 to 50 minutes at 350°F with reduced heat.
4. until completely cold, cool on a baking rack (at least 2 hours).
