New England Squash Pie image

As a transplanted New Englander, I have been unable to find squash pie filling here in Florida. Squash pie has a much more delicate flavor than pumpkin pie and is my husband's favorite pie. I usually cook up a big squash and package it in 2 cup containers to put in the freezer. If you use skim milk, 1/8 of a crustless pie is...

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c butternut squash
1/2 c sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
1 1/2 c milk
1 unbaked pie shell

Steps:

  • 1. Cook fresh or frozen squash. Put it through a food mill to make it smooth. Put a coffee filter into a sieve and put the squash in it. Let it drain until no liquid comes out.
  • 2. Measure 2 cups of squash and add sugar and spices. Mix well. Add the eggs and mix. Using a whisk, blend in the milk. (If you want a richer filling, substitute cream for some of the milk. For the diet conscious, use skim milk.)
  • 3. Pour into an unbaked pie shell. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes. Then lower the temperature to 375 and continue baking for 45 minutes or until a shape knife inserted into the filling comes out clean.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I like to add a few extra spices to the filling, like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie turned out really bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the sugar.

I'm not a huge fan of squash, but I thought this pie was delicious. The crust was flaky and the filling was creamy and flavorful.

The filling was a bit too runny for my taste, but I think I just needed to bake it a little longer.
