  • Tyler's Ultimate Pumpkin Pie

Ingredients:

FOR THE CRUST
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
5 teaspoons sugar
salt
12 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

FOR THE FILLING AND TOPPING
1 15- ounce can pure pumpkin
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
salt
3 large eggs, plus 1 egg white
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup toasted pecans
4 ounces (about one cup) Ocean Spray® Cranberries
1 2.3- ounce package amaretti cookies (about 12)

Directions:

1. Make the crust: Combine the flour, sugar and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Mix in the cold butter with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Work in 3 tablespoons ice water until the dough holds together without being too sticky. If it’s still crumbly, add more ice water, 1 teaspoon at a time. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

2. On a floured surface, roll out the dough into an 11- to 12-inch circle with a floured rolling pin. Ease into a 9-inch pie pan; press firmly into the bottom and sides. Trim the excess dough, then pinch the edges. Refrigerate until ready to fill.

3. Place a baking sheet on the bottom oven rack and preheat to 375°. Make the filling: Whisk the pumpkin in a bowl with the butter and a pinch of salt. Whisk in 3 eggs and the sugar. Stir in the cream, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Lightly beat the egg white, then brush onto the pastry edges. Carefully place the pie on the preheated baking sheet, lower the oven temperature to 325° and bake until the pie is set but still jiggles slightly, about 50 minutes. Let cool completely.

4. Meanwhile, toast the pecans in a saute pan. With a knife coarsely chop the pecans, cranberries and cookies; sprinkle over the cooled pie.

Serves 6 to 8

It was great, though I did use a store bought crust. The topping was really good and worth the extra effort and my husband who does not care for traditional pumpkin pie liked this one.
