Pumpkin Pie - Crust

In a bowl add flour, sugar, salt and seasoning. Whisk until combined. Add COLD butter (cut in small cubes). Rub the butter with the dry ingredients until crumbly.

Slowly add water and knead until a dough forms.
*Don’t knead too much. Once dough forms it’s ready.

Place dough in a zip lock bag or wrap it up. Flatten the dough and roll it out into a square. Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 min.

Pumpkin Pie - Filling

First combine pumpkin puree with the eggs. Add evaporated milk, sugar and spices. Whisk until combined.

Roll out the dough in a flat sheet. About 5 mm thick. Transfer the dough to a pie dish. Trim of the leftover dough, leaving 1 -2 cm over the edge. Tuck the dough underneath to create a thicker edge.

Create a decorative edge if preferred. Poke holes on the bottom of the crust with a fork.

Add the filling and brush the edges of the pie crust with egg wash.

Bake the pie at 350F for 50 - 60 minutes. When ready leave the pie in the oven until completely cooled down.

Happy Holidays! ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿

TIPS & NOTES
✿ When making the pie crust, feel free to use a food processor.
✿ Crust can be made ahead. Store it in the fridge or freezer before use.
✿ Make some decorations with the left over dough ✿◕ ‿ ◕✿.
✿ For more flavor add some pumpkin pie spice.
✿ Keep the oven door closed while baking.
✿ Place a baking sheet under the pie dish when you bake it in the oven in case the filling overflows.
