The (easy) pumpkin pie recipe

Is there a more autumnal recipe than a pumpkin pie? I don’t think so, no.

It’s raining, it’s starting to get cold, Halloween has already passed, but Christmas hasn’t arrived yet. It’s the perfect time to make this delicious pumpkin pie recipe and tuck some delicious slices under a blanket, in front of a set, or with a book.

Pumpkin pie recipe

To make this recipe you will need:

  • 800 g pumpkin (or canned pumpkin puree)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 20 cl of liquid crème fraîche
  • 1 shortcrust pastry (or shortcrust pastry, your choice)
  • 150 g of sugar
  • 1 sachet of vanilla sugar
  • 1 pinch of nutmeg
  • 1 pinch of salt

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Start by steaming the cut squash (or opening the can). Once ready, prepare a puree. In a salad bowl, mix it with the eggs, sugars, salt, nutmeg and cream. Mix, mix, the mixture should be very homogeneous and smooth. Roll out the dough on a suitable plate and prick it, then add the mixture on top. Toss, goes in the oven for 30-40 minutes!

FYI, the cake tastes much better cold than warm, so wait a bit before jumping on it.
