Pumpkin Pie

     Hello readers! What will you have for dessert tonight? Are you... confused? Still thinking? Will you have nothing, because you can't think of anything? Well readers, today we will make a delicious dessert that is fit for any occasion. You can bring this to parties or just simply enjoy at home with family. Today we are making pumpkin pie. My mouth is watering, so we better get started!





      You will need:


  • two cups flour 
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • butter 
  • water (three tablespoons)
  • two eggs beaten
  • pumpkin (two cups)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • one teaspoon cinnamon
  • one half ginger
  • one fourth teaspoon cloves

     Let's get started! Combine the flour, one teaspoon of salt, half of the butter (cut in cubes). Mix thoroughly. Add the rest of the butter and water. Stir the mix. Flatten your crust so it resembles a CD (though not with the hole in the middle). Stick the mixture in to the fridge. While the crust is cooling, make the filling. Combine the pumpkin, sugar, eggs, cinnamon, ginger (grated), cloves, half teaspoon of salt, and pumpkin. Stir thoroughly. Take your crust out of the fridge and shape it the way you like. Pour in the filling and stick in the oven for about 15 minutes and at 425 Degrees. Then set the oven to 300- 315 Degrees and pull out until you can stick a toothpick in the center and pull it out clean. Let it cool for about fifteen minutes. Lastly, eat! 



    I really hope that every one enjoyed this post and found it helpful. If you have any comments, suggestions, advice, or questions then the comment section is always open. Improve your pie by the "tips" section below and enjoy!

        Tips:

  • add whipped cream to garnish/ make the pie more flavorful
  • sprinkle the top with powdered sugar
  • if the crust is soft, put it in the oven for 5- 10 minutes at 180 Degrees
