topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

    Shortcrust pie base

  • 2 cups premium wheat flour
  • 1 tbsp. sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 3 tbsp. milk
  • Special equipment: round pie pan with a diameter of 22 cm.

    Pumpkin filling

  • 1.5 tbsp. pureed pumpkin
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • 7 tbsp. sweetened condensed milk
  • 6.5 tbsp. l. concentrated milk
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. nutmeg
  • A pinch of ground cloves
  • A pinch of salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 egg yolk

Preparation:

  1. Make the shortcrust pastry: In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the butter and continue mixing until the mixture comes together when you hold it in your hand, but you can still see some butter in the dough.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk together the egg yolks and milk in a small bowl.

    Add the yolk mixture to the flour mixture and stir until the dough comes together. Transfer the dough to a sheet of plastic wrap, wrap tightly, and chill in the refrigerator for several hours. (The dough can be stored in the refrigerator for several days and in the freezer for several weeks.)
  3. Place half of the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it into a circle 28–30 cm in diameter and about 0.5 cm thick. Place the dough in the pan and press the edges into place. Chill the pie crust for 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat oven to 180°C.

    Line the crust with aluminum foil and fill with dried beans. Bake until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Remove the foil and beans.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare the pumpkin filling: reduce the oven temperature to 160°C.

    In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin and sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until reduced and thickened, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the cream, milk, vanilla, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, salt, eggs, and yolk. Pour the filling into the crust and bake until set, about 45-55 minutes. Cool and serve.
