Yield 8-10 slices

Number Of Ingredients 13

10 inch deep dish pie crust, unbaked
Glass or ceramic pie plate
Filling:
750ml (3c) baked, well mashed pumpkin
5 eggs (slightly beaten)
2T molasses
1can Eaglebrand condensed milk
1.5 c evaporated milk
1.25 c dark brown sugar
2T cinnamon
2T nutmeg
1T allspice
1T vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 450º 2. Prepare your favorite 2-crust pie crust recipe. Use 1.5 of the dough for the bottom crust. Use the remaining dough for a lattice or decorative crust topping. Be sure the fluted pie crust rim is high and substantial. 3. Thoroughly whisk all filling ingredients together in a very large bowl. 4. Fill a thick, 10-inch crust with the pumpkin filling. Add a lattice top or pastry decorations to the top if desired. 5. On the middle rack of the oven, bake at 450º for 20, then reduce heat to 350º for 30-40 minutes (or longer if needed.. (See instructions for checking 'doneness') If the fluting begins to turn to dark, protect it with a narrow strip of foil wrap, gently bent over the fluting. Doneness: The pie is done when a sharp knife comes out dry from the filling centre, or a small crack appears at the centre of the filling. If using a glass pie plate, double-check that the bottom of the crust is a light golden colour. 6. Allow to cool. Refrigerate until served 7. Serve with English cream, whipped cream or ice cream if desired.
