Time 2h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small sugar pumpkin, halved and seeded
1 cup white sugar
¼ cup amber rum
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon butter
1 ½ teaspoons dark molasses
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 frozen deep-dish prepared pie crust, thawed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Arrange pumpkin halves on a baking sheet, cut sides down.
  • Roast in preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour. Set aside until cool enough to handle, though still warm.
  • Adjust oven heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Scoop flesh from pumpkin halves into a bowl; mash with potato masher. Measure 2 cups mashed pumpkin into a large mixing bowl; add sugar, amber rum, egg yolk, pumpkin pie spice, butter, dark molasses, and vanilla extract. Puree the mixture with an immersion blender or electric hand mixer until smooth and thick. Pour the puree into the pie crust.
  • Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.

This pie was a disaster. The crust was soggy and the filling was too runny.

I'm not a big fan of pumpkin pie, but this recipe is a game changer. The filling is so smooth and creamy, and the crust is perfectly flaky.

This pumpkin pie recipe is a keeper! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the filling was perfectly smooth and creamy. I added a little extra cinnamon and nutmeg to the filling, and it turned out perfectly spiced.
