topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • One 23 cm unbaked pie crust made from chopped shortcrust pastry
  • 2 tbsp (30 g) unsalted butter
  • 2 gala apples, diced into about 2cm cubes.
  • 1 Macintosh apple, diced into about 2cm cubes.
  • 1 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/8 tsp ground cloves
  • Table salt
  • 430 gr. pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 340 gr. concentrated milk
  • 2 eggs
  • Whipped cream, optional
  • Special equipment: 23 cm round baking pan

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C and place the baking tray in the center.
  2. Place the dough into a baking pan. Press the dough into the bottom and sides of the pan, then trim off any excess dough. Chill until ready to use.
  3. Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat, then add the apples, 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and a pinch of salt. Cook until the apples begin to soften, 8 to 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and let cool.
  4. In a bowl, add pumpkin puree and mix with granulated sugar, brown sugar, evaporated milk, eggs and a pinch of salt.
  5. Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator and fill it with the apple mixture. Pour the pumpkin filling over the top and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg. Bake the pie until the filling is set, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes.
  6. Cool, then slice the pie and top with whipped cream, if using.
