Method

Steam pumpkin for the filling. Preheat oven to 180ºC bake.

Pastry
Combine flour, sugar and salt in a medium-large bowl. Add butter and use your fingertips to rub in until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Mix in 3-4 tablespoons water and knead to form a smooth pastry.

Dust a 26cm loose-bottomed tart/quiche tin with flour. Lightly flour a clean work surface. Roll out pastry into a large circle (roughly 32-34cm in diameter). 

Carefully line the tin with the pastry, trimming off any excess. Prick the pastry base all over with a fork. Bake for 15 minutes.

Filling
Mash or blend pumpkin until smooth. Add remaining filling ingredients and mix well.
Pour onto pastry base. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until pie is golden brown and the surface is set.

Allow to cool completely before slicing and serving with whipped cream. Dust with cinnamon, if desired.

Additional tips

Pie will keep well (refrigerated) for up to 3 days.

Frequently asked questions
How can I prevent my pumpkin pie from developing cracks on the surface?

To avoid cracks in your pumpkin pie, bake it until the center is slightly jiggly; it will continue to set as it cools. Rapid cooling can cause cracks, so allow the pie to cool gradually at room temperature before refrigerating.

Is it possible to prepare spiced pumpkin pie in advance?

Absolutely! You can bake your spiced pumpkin pie a day or two in advance. Once cooled, place in an airtight container and store in the fridge. Before serving, let it sit at room temperature or warm slightly.

Can I use canned pumpkin instead of fresh for pumpkin pie?

Yes, canned pumpkin can be substituted for fresh pumpkin. If possible, try to use a pain pumpkin purée, not a pumpkin pie filling so you can control the spices and sweetness in your baking. Also, make sure you use the same weight (450g)
