Pumpkin pie

With its shortcrust pastry base and lightly spiced, pumpkin filling, our pumpkin pie is full of autumnal flavours.

Synonymous with the autumn months, our classic pumpkin pie recipe has cinnamon and ginger for its beloved warming tasting notes. We also top with a dollop of whipped cream and orange zest to make it a true crowd pleaser.

What you'll need...

For the filling

  • 180g caster sugar
  • 1 can of pumpkin
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp mixed spice
  • 3 eggs
  • 200ml double cream

For the pastry

  • 200g plain flour
  • 125g butter
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon, optional

For the topping

  • 200ml double cream
  • Orange zest, optional

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas 7. 

  2. Make the pastry by mixing the flour and cinnamon together. Rub in the butter by using your fingers and add a small amount of water until you get a stiff dough.  

  3. Roll out the pastry until it's large enough to line your pie dish. Cut off the edges and pinch the edge of the pastry or use a fork to press the edges down. With the leftover pastry, cut into leaves or use a small cookie cutter. Place on a slightly floured plate and chill until later. 

  4. Line the pastry with foil or parchment paper and fill with baking beans. Bake for 5-8 minutes. Remove the beans and foil and/or paper and return to the oven for a couple of minutes. 

  1. Reduce the oven temperature to 150C / 130C fan / gas 3 and remove the leaf-shaped pastry pieces from the fridge. 

  2. Make the filling by putting the pumpkin and other filling ingredients in a bowl and mix until combined. Remove the pastry case from the oven and pour in the filling. Bake in the oven for 40 mins. Carefully take out the pie to place the pastry leaves in the centre and place back into the oven for a further 20 mins or until set. Remove and leave to cool in the pastry dish. 

  3. Once cool, whisk the cream until it thickens. You can add small dollops of cream on top of the pie or serve along with orange zest.
