With the Holiday seasons around the corner, you may be already planing what kind of pies you will be baking this year. Bellow are just a few products that will help you to impress your family and friends. Even if you are not a baker, but know some one who is, some of the products bellow would make an amazing gift during this holiday season. I especially like the 9″ round red ceramic pie plate. It is pretty cheap, and if you want to you can give the pie with a plate as a gift. And of course every baker will appreciate a good recipe book. I also have a wonderful pumpkin pie recipe (scroll bellow) for you to try.
Autumn Pumpkin Pie Recipe
I got this recipe a long time ago from a friend of mine. You can make your own pie crust for this recipe or a store-bought crust will do just fine.
For this recipe you will need:
- 2 egg yolk slightly beaten
- 3 cups of Pumpkin (you can use canned pumpkin or fresh pumpkin)
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1/4 cup of flour
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of cinnamon (you can put more or less depending how much you like the taste of cinnamon)
- 1/2 teaspoon of ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon of allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon of powdered cloves (optional, pie still taste great without it)
- 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cup of evaporated milk
Mix ingredients in order given above. Pour it an unbaked pie shell. Bake at 400 °F for 45-50 minutes. You will know that your pie is done when the clean knife will comes out clean when inserted in the middle of the pie. Halfway through the baking time I use the aluminum foil to cover the edges of the pie to prevent them from burning. But a crust shield for pies seems like a very practical tool to have.
Your pie should look and taste just like the pie you see bellow which I made not so long ago:
If you decide to make the Autumn Pumpkin Pie using the recipe above I would love to see the photos of your pies. You can add photos when commenting bellow.
