Pumpkin pie

How to make pumpkin pie

Step 1. Prepare the dough: sift the flour with salt, add the butter cut into small pieces, rub the flour with the butter into crumbs, add the egg, and knead a smooth dough. If necessary, add ice water or milk. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes.

Step 2. Prepare a 23 cm diameter mold, place parchment paper on the bottom of the mold, grease it with butter, and spread our dough to cover the bottom of the mold and form the edges. Place the mold with the dough in the refrigerator for another 30-60 minutes.

Step 3. Cover the dough with a sheet of parchment, place dry beans on it, and put it in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 15 minutes. Remove the parchment with the beans and place the mold with the dough for another 5 minutes.

Step 4. Prepare the filling: cut the pumpkin into pieces and bake it in the oven until cooked, then puree the pumpkin pulp with a blender.

Step 5. Add honey, butter, spices, and lightly blend with a blender, adding eggs one at a time while blending (I also added about 150-200 g of homemade cheese and nutmeg, but that was my initiative). Pour our filling into the mold with the dough.

Place the pie in a preheated oven at 180 degrees and bake for 40-45 minutes. Cool down.
