♡
Did you know?
Pumpkin pie was first popularised in Britain in the 1940s when canned pumpkin became widely available after WWII.
Method
Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
Combine flour and a pinch of salt; cut in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Add a tablespoon of water and stir to form a dough, then press into a 23 cm pie tin and chill for 15 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk pumpkin puree, brown sugar, eggs, milk, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg until smooth.
Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
Bake for 45‑50 minutes until the centre is set and the crust is golden.
Allow the pie to cool on a rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.
