FLUFFY PUMPKIN PIE



Fluffy Pumpkin Pie image

I found this recipe ages ago in our local newspaper. There is enough filling for 2, 9-inch pies or one 11-inch pie. Line the pie plate with your best pie dough. Make a strong, fluted rim that extends about 1/2-inch above the rim of the dish. Do not prick the bottom of the pastry.

JULIA CHILD'S AUNT HELEN'S FLUFFY PUMPKIN PIE



Julia Child's Aunt Helen's Fluffy Pumpkin Pie image

This recipe was published in Parade in November 1982, when Julia Child was writing a recipe column for the magazine. As all cooks (and writers) know, Thanksgiving is an adventure and a challenge: how to come up with fresh ideas that keep the dish on the right side of tradition? In this pie, Mrs. Child's addition of molasses, extra spices and especially bourbon breathe new life into the filling. If you like your desserts on the spicy side, add an extra tablespoon of molasses and a pinch of black pepper.

Time 2h

Yield Two 9-inch pies, 16 to 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 eggs
2 15-ounce cans (3 1/2 cups) pumpkin purée
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons molasses
3 tablespoons bourbon or dark rum (optional)
3 teaspoons cinnamon
3 teaspoons ginger
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup milk, more as needed
2 unbaked 9-inch pie shells, or one 11-inch pie shell (see recipe)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees and place rack in center of oven. Separate eggs and set aside.
  • Using a mixer, blender or large bowl, blend pumpkin, the 2 cups of the sugars, 1 teaspoon salt, molasses, bourbon or rum (if using), cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, egg yolks, cream and milk until smooth. Add more milk, a tablespoon at a time, if the mixture is stiff: it should be a soft purée.
  • In a clean bowl, whip egg whites until foaming. Whip in a pinch of salt, then gradually whip in remaining 2 tablespoons sugar until shiny white peaks form. Beat 1/4 of the whites thoroughly into pumpkin mixture; gently fold in the rest.
  • Immediately ladle filling into the shells, filling to just below the rim of the pan. Place in oven and bake just until rim of crust begins to turn gold, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 and bake another 25 to 30 minutes, until a tester inserted into the filling 2 inches from the rim comes out clean. (The center should still be a bit wet; it will cook more as it cools.) If the rim of the crust starts to get too brown, cover it with aluminum foil.
  • Immediately turn oven off, leave door ajar (stick in a wooden spoon to hold it open if necessary) and let sit 20 to 30 minutes more as the oven cools; this will prevent the filling from turning watery. Serve warm, or let cool, wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Let pie come to room temperature before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin purée: This will give your pie a more intense pumpkin flavor. You can make your own pumpkin purée by roasting a pumpkin and then puréeing it in a food processor, or you can buy canned pumpkin purée.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pie tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven: This will help the pie to bake evenly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the pie to set and the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin pie is a classic fall dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy, fluffy filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
