Yield One 10-inch pie (6 to 8 normal servings, 10 - 12 Thanksgiving servings)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup of squash purée
2 large eggs, separated
Scant 3/4 cup of vanilla sugar made with light brown sugar
Pinch of fine sea salt
1 1/3 cup whole milk
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
One pre-baked 10-inch tart pastry
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • 2. In a medium-sized bowl whisk together the squash and the egg yolks until combined. Whisk in the sugar and the salt and the milk, then whisk in the flour until smooth.
  • 3. In another medium-size bowl, lightly whisk the egg whites to the soft peak stage. Whisk the egg whites lightly into the squash mixture, then pour it into the pre-baked pie shell. Sprinkle the cinnamon over the top and bake in the bottom third of the oven for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat of the oven to 350°F and continue baking until the pie is nearly set but still moves slightly, 25 to 30 minutes. Let it cool to room temperature before serving.

I'm not usually a fan of squash pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The custard filling was so smooth and creamy, and the hint of nutmeg and cinnamon was perfect. I will definitely be making this again.
