All-butter pastry dough
1 1/2 cups sour cream (not reduced-fat)
1 1/2 cups canned solid-pack pumpkin (13 oz)
3 large eggs, separated
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
Accompaniment: lightly sweetened whipped cream
Special Equipment
pie weights or raw rice; an instant-read thermometer

Steps:

  • Roll out pastry dough on a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin into a 13-inch round and fit into a 9-inch glass or metal pie plate. Trim excess dough, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang, then fold overhang under pastry and press against rim of pie plate to reinforce edge. Decoratively crimp edge and chill shell until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • While shell chills, put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Lightly prick bottom and side of chilled pie shell all over with a fork. Line shell with foil and fill with pie weights. Bake until pastry is pale golden along rim and set underneath weights, about 20 minutes. Carefully remove foil and weights and bake shell until bottom and side of pastry are pale golden, about 10 minutes more. Cool completely in pie plate on a rack, about 20 minutes. Leave oven on.
  • Make filling:
  • Heat 1 cup sour cream in a double boiler or a large metal bowl set over a large wide pot of boiling water until warm, stirring occasionally.
  • Whisk together pumpkin, yolks, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, and remaining 1/2 cup sour cream in another bowl until combined and whisk into hot sour cream. Cook over simmering water, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until thickened and registers 170°F on thermometer, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and cool pumpkin mixture in bowl set in a larger bowl of ice water, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
  • Beat egg whites in another bowl with an electric mixer until they just hold stiff peaks. Fold whites into pumpkin mixture gently but thoroughly.
  • Pour filling into cooled shell, smoothing top, and bake until filling is set and puffed around edge, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool pie to room temperature on a rack, about 2 hours.

THE ULTIMATE PUMPKIN PIE WITH CRUNCHY CRANBERRY TOPPING



The Ultimate Pumpkin Pie with Crunchy Cranberry Topping image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     dessert

Time 2h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup pecans
4 ounces frozen cranberries
1 (2.3-ounce) package amaretto cookies (about 12) (recommended: Amaretti di Saronno)

Steps:

  • Make the pastry: combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter and mix with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in the ice water and work it in to bind the dough until it holds together without being too wet or sticky. Squeeze a small amount together, if it is crumbly, add more ice water, 1 teaspoon at a time. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the counter and a rolling pin lightly with flour. Roll the dough out into a 10-inch circle. Carefully roll the dough up onto the pin and lay it inside a 9-inch pie pan. Press the dough firmly into the bottom and sides so it fits tightly. Trim the excess dough around the rim and pinch the edges to form a border. Place the crust on a sheet pan to catch any spills. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Filling: Puree the pumpkin in a food processor with the butter and a pinch of salt. Measure 1 1/2 cups puree into a bowl. In another bowl beat the eggs and sugar until the sugar has melted. Add the eggs to the pumpkin puree and whisk well. Add the cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg and stir well to combine. Pour the mixture into the pie shell, and place on the bottom rack of the oven. Brush the pastry with the beaten egg white. Bake until the pie is set but still jiggles slightly, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool.
  • Meanwhile, put the pecans on a baking sheet and bake them with the pie for about 10 minutes to toast them. Remove them from the oven and let them cool. Thaw the cranberries in a strainer set over a bowl to catch the liquid. Put the cookies, pecans, and cranberries into a food processor and pulse them a few times until they are coarsely chopped. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the cooled pie and serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers.

PUMPKIN PIE WITH SPICED MERINGUE TOPPING



Pumpkin Pie with Spiced Meringue Topping image

Provided by Sandra Lee

Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (9-inch) deep-dish frozen pie crust
4 ounces cream cheese, softened at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
Pinch salt
1 egg, plus 2 yolks, whites reserved for meringue topping
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/4 cup milk
2 large reserved egg whites, at room temperature
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Put the frozen pie crust onto a baking sheet.
  • Using a hand mixer beat the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth. Add the pumpkin and beat to combine. Add the sugars, salt, egg, egg yolks, spice and mix well. Stir in the milk and beat and until well incorporated and smooth. Pour the mixture into the pie crust and bake until set, about 40 to 50 minutes. Allow the pie to come to room temperature.
  • For Meringue:
  • Using a hand mixer beat the egg whites in a very clean glass or stainless steel bowl on high. When the whites are very foamy, begin to stream in about 1/2 of the sugar. Beat until soft peaks form and stream in remaining sugar and pumpkin pie spice. Beat until stiff peaks form. (When the beaters are lifted out of the bowl peaks should remain standing.)
  • Increase the oven temperature to broil. Using a spatula cover the top of the pie completely with the meringue, making decorative peaks in the meringue. Put the pie back in the oven and broil until the peaks of meringue are golden brown, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and serve.

PUMPKIN-SOUR CREAM CUSTARD PIE



Pumpkin-Sour Cream Custard Pie image

Categories     Fruit     Dessert     Bake     Thanksgiving     Spice     Pumpkin     Fall     Sour Cream     Bon Appétit     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 Basic Pie Crust
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon plus 1/2 cup sugar
1 16-ounce can solid pack pumpkin
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chilled whipping cream
1/3 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 350° F. Roll out pie crust disk on lightly floured surface to 14-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Trim overhang to 1/2 inch; reserve dough scraps. Fold edge of crust under. Crimp edge decoratively, forming high-standing rim. Place crust in freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Line crust with foil. Fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake until sides are just set, about 15 minutes. Remove foil and beans and bake until crust is pale golden, piercing with fork if crust bubbles, about 12 minutes. Transfer to rack; cool. Maintain oven temperature.
  • If desired, reroll reserved dough scraps to 1/8-inch thickness. Using small pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter, cut 1 1/2- to 2-inch-diameter pumpkins. Gater scraps into ball and reroll. Cut out additional pumpkins. Using small sharp knife, score each pumpkin decoratively. Arrange on small baking sheet. Brush pumpkins with milk; sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake until light golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer sheet to rack and cool.
  • Whisk pumpkin, sour cream, 1/2 cup whipping cream, brown sugar, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, salt and 1/2 cup sugar in large bowl to blend. Pour into prepared crust. Bake until filling puffs around edges and center is almost set, about 55 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool completely. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover cutouts and pie separately with plastic. Store cutouts at room temperature. Refrigerate pie.)
  • Beat 1 cup chilled cream and powdered sugar in medium bowl until stiff peaks form. Spoon whipped cream around edge of pie. Arrange pumpkin cutouts decoratively in cream.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin: Look for a sugar pumpkin or pie pumpkin, which are small and have a sweet, dense flesh.
  • Roast the pumpkin yourself: Roasting the pumpkin brings out its natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the pumpkin, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, and place it cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast at 400°F for 45 minutes to an hour, or until the flesh is tender.
  • Use fresh spices: Freshly ground spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, will give your pie the best flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pie tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Blind-bake the crust: Blind-baking the crust will help to prevent it from becoming soggy. To blind-bake the crust, preheat your oven to 350°F. Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the parchment paper and pie weights and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling 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 pumpkin filling, flaky crust, and sweet sour cream topping, this pie is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. So next time you're looking for a delicious and festive dessert, give this pumpkin pie recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
