ULTIMATE PUMPKIN PIE
Did you know that the variety of pumpkin used in canned pumpkin purée is very close to sweet winter squashes like butternut and honeynut? Making your own fresh purée from these varieties will give you the best possible pumpkin pie, one that's both ultracreamy and richly flavored. Just don't be tempted to halve the whole squash and bake it still in the skin. Cutting it into cubes allows for the most evaporation and condensation for the best texture and taste. If using a glass or ceramic pie pan, you might want to parbake the crust. Since glass doesn't conduct heat as well as metal, the crust may not cook through if you don't parbake.

Steps:
- Place two racks in the oven: one in the lower third and one in the upper third. Place a rimmed baking sheet on the lower oven rack and heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Line another rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread butternut squash on it. Drizzle squash with 2 tablespoons of the heavy cream, sprinkle with granulated sugar and dot the top with butter. Roast on the upper rack, stirring once or twice, until squash is very tender, 40 to 50 minutes.
- Meanwhile, on a lightly floured surface, roll pie dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch metal pie pan. Fold over any excess dough, crimping the edges. Transfer to the freezer for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours. (This helps the crust hold its shape so the edges don't slump.)
- When the squash is soft, transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for at least 10 minutes (and up to a few hours). Raise the oven temperature to 425 degrees.
- In a food processor or blender, purée the squash with the remaining cream until smooth. Add eggs, brown sugar, spices, bourbon and salt, and pulse to combine. The mixture should be very smooth.
- Pour mixture into the chilled pie shell. Carefully transfer pie to the hot baking sheet on the bottom rack. Bake for 10 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 300 and continue to bake until the crust is golden and the center jiggles just slightly when shaken, 35 to 45 minutes longer. Transfer pie to a wire cooling rack and allow to cool completely before serving. Pie can be baked up to 24 hours ahead of serving; do not refrigerate before serving.
Tips:
- To ensure a flaky crust, use cold butter and ice water. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can make it tough.
- Chill the pie crust before baking. This will help to prevent the crust from shrinking.
- Blind bake the pie crust before filling it. This will help to prevent the bottom of the pie from becoming soggy.
- Use fresh, ripe figs for the best flavor. If fresh figs are unavailable, you can use dried figs that have been soaked in warm water until softened.
- Add a pinch of salt to the pumpkin filling to enhance the sweetness of the pumpkin and figs.
- Serve the pie warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Conclusion:
This pumpkin figs pie is a delicious and unique fall dessert that is sure to impress your family and friends. With its flaky crust, creamy pumpkin filling, and sweet figs, this pie is a perfect way to celebrate the season. Whether you serve it warm or at room temperature, this pie is sure to be a hit.
