NO-CRUST PUMPKIN PIE
Baked in a water bath, this pie has a texture that's more like a custard than a traditional pumpkin pie. In place of canned or fresh pumpkin, I sometimes use cushaw, a type of crookneck squash.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients except water together in a large bowl.
- Gradually stir in water until well mixed.
- Spray a 9-inch pan with cooking spray.
- Pour batter into pan.
- Bake at 350° for 45-55 minutes or until knife inserted 1 inch from the center comes out clean.
- **Keep pie chilled after cooking.
Tips:
- For a flaky crust, use cold butter and work it into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Avoid overworking the dough, as this will make it tough.
- If you don't have time to make your own crust, you can use a store-bought pie crust. Just be sure to thaw it according to the package directions before filling it.
- To prevent the crust from getting soggy, pre-bake it for 10-15 minutes before filling it. This will help to create a barrier between the crust and the filling.
- When filling the pie, don't overfill it. Leave about 1/2 inch of space around the edge of the crust so that the filling doesn't bubble over.
- To prevent the filling from cracking, let the pie cool completely before cutting it.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin pie is a classic fall dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a flaky crust and a creamy, flavorful filling, pumpkin pie is the perfect way to end a Thanksgiving or Christmas meal. So next time you're looking for a delicious and festive dessert, give pumpkin pie a try.
