Tylers Ultimate Pumpkin Pie Recipes

THE ULTIMATE PUMPKIN PIE WITH CRUNCHY CRANBERRY TOPPING

Steps:

• Make the pastry: combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter and mix with a pastry blender or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Pour in the ice water and work it in to bind the dough until it holds together without being too wet or sticky. Squeeze a small amount together, if it is crumbly, add more ice water, 1 teaspoon at a time. Form the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes.
• Sprinkle the counter and a rolling pin lightly with flour. Roll the dough out into a 10-inch circle. Carefully roll the dough up onto the pin and lay it inside a 9-inch pie pan. Press the dough firmly into the bottom and sides so it fits tightly. Trim the excess dough around the rim and pinch the edges to form a border. Place the crust on a sheet pan to catch any spills. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
• Heat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Filling: Puree the pumpkin in a food processor with the butter and a pinch of salt. Measure 1 1/2 cups puree into a bowl. In another bowl beat the eggs and sugar until the sugar has melted. Add the eggs to the pumpkin puree and whisk well. Add the cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg and stir well to combine. Pour the mixture into the pie shell, and place on the bottom rack of the oven. Brush the pastry with the beaten egg white. Bake until the pie is set but still jiggles slightly, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool.
• Meanwhile, put the pecans on a baking sheet and bake them with the pie for about 10 minutes to toast them. Remove them from the oven and let them cool. Thaw the cranberries in a strainer set over a bowl to catch the liquid. Put the cookies, pecans, and cranberries into a food processor and pulse them a few times until they are coarsely chopped. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the cooled pie and serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers.

WAYFARE TAVERN PEACH PIE

Steps:

• For the pie dough: Preheat a convection oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place your flour, salt and butter in a food processor and blend until it becomes a pea-size crumble. Dump that mixture out into a bowl and pour in 5 tablespoons cold water. Mix with your hands just until it comes together, then wrap and let rest for 15 minutes. (Careful not to overmix your dough and form gluten.)
• Split the dough in half. Roll out the bottom half to about 1/4-inch thick and drape and mold into the bottom of a pie pan.
• Roll out the top to the same thickness (make this one wide, if possible) and set aside.
• For the filling: Combine the peaches, sugars, flour, tapioca starch, vanilla, cinnamon, salt and lemon zest and juice in a large bowl. Pour into the prepared pie dough.
• Cut the top piece into 16 to 17 strips. Weave them into a lattice on top of the pie, crossing them over and under one another and securing them to the sides. Trim excess dough. Cut out 3 to 4 leaf shapes in different sizes from the remaining dough and secure those on the top in a decorative fashion.
• Bake the pie for 45 to 50 minutes.
• For the rosemary sugar: Blend turbinado sugar and rosemary in a food processor.
• Brush pie with egg wash and sprinkle with the rosemary sugar. Return to the oven to finish baking, 20 more minutes. Serve with Ice Cream.
• Mix together the egg yolks, whole eggs, granulated sugar and salt in a bowl and whisk well.
• Bring the cream, milk and bourbon to 180 degrees F in a pot over medium heat.
• Temper the hot cream into your egg mixture by adding a bit of the cream to the egg mixture, whisking, then adding the rest, whisking constantly. Let cool.
• Strain, then pour into an ice cream maker. Spin until it reaches the desired consistency. Transfer to a container and freeze, 2 hours.
• Special equipment: a candy thermometer; an ice cream maker

ULTIMATE PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Place two racks in the oven: one in the lower third and one in the upper third. Place a rimmed baking sheet on the lower oven rack and heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Line another rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread butternut squash on it. Drizzle squash with 2 tablespoons of the heavy cream, sprinkle with granulated sugar and dot the top with butter. Roast on the upper rack, stirring once or twice, until squash is very tender, 40 to 50 minutes.
• Meanwhile, on a lightly floured surface, roll pie dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch metal pie pan. Fold over any excess dough, crimping the edges. Transfer to the freezer for at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours. (This helps the crust hold its shape so the edges don't slump.)
• When the squash is soft, transfer the pan to a wire rack to cool for at least 10 minutes (and up to a few hours). Raise the oven temperature to 425 degrees.
• In a food processor or blender, purée the squash with the remaining cream until smooth. Add eggs, brown sugar, spices, bourbon and salt, and pulse to combine. The mixture should be very smooth.
• Pour mixture into the chilled pie shell. Carefully transfer pie to the hot baking sheet on the bottom rack. Bake for 10 minutes, then lower the oven temperature to 300 and continue to bake until the crust is golden and the center jiggles just slightly when shaken, 35 to 45 minutes longer. Transfer pie to a wire cooling rack and allow to cool completely before serving. Pie can be baked up to 24 hours ahead of serving; do not refrigerate before serving.
