Categories     Dessert

Time 5h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening
2 to 3 tablespoons cold water
2 eggs
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 can (15 oz) pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, softened
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).
  • Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
  • Heat oven to 425°F. With floured rolling pin, roll pastry into round 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch glass pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute as desired.
  • In medium bowl, beat eggs slightly. Stir in all remaining filling ingredients. Pour into pastry-lined pie plate. Bake 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix all streusel ingredients until crumbly.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Bake pie 35 minutes longer. Sprinkle streusel over pie. Bake about 10 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours. Store in refrigerator.

PRALINE PUMPKIN PIE



Praline Pumpkin Pie image

A great choice when you can't decide whether to make pumpkin or pecan pie! I adore this pie. I think the praline layer adds a lovely new dimension to the traditional pumpkin pie. The pumpkin layer is the best I've ever had also. Very light and tasty without being overly sweet. A few people weren't crazy about it though because they said there was something 'wrong' with having nuts in a pumpkin pie. LOL! That's okay, that just means more for me!! And yes, you can double the praline layer, I do. You will end up with a little too much filling, but the pie will turn out fine.

PUMPKIN PECAN-PRALINE PIE



Pumpkin Pecan-Praline Pie image

This recipe for pumpkin pecan-praline pie is courtesy of chef Paul Bergeron.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Yield Makes One 9-Inch Pie

Number Of Ingredients 13

All-purpose flour, for work surface
Flaky Pie Dough for Pumpkin Pecan-Praline Pie
4 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup Muscovado light or dark-brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 pound Pumpkin Puree for Pumpkin Pecan-Praline Pie
1 cup heavy cream
Pecan-Praline

Steps:

  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out half of the dough to 1/8-inch thick. Using a 1-inch tear-shaped cookie cutter, cut out 50 tear-shaped pieces of dough. Starting with the pointed end, roll each piece of dough three-quarters of the way toward the fat end of the tear, forming a curl. Transfer curls to a baking sheet; refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out remaining dough into an 11-inch round. With a dry pastry brush, brush off any excess flour; fit dough into a 9-inch glass pie plate, pressing it into the edges. Trim to a 1-inch overhang all around. Fold under overhang so it extends slightly beyond the edge of the pie plate.
  • Prick bottom of dough all over with a fork. Line with parchment paper, leaving at least a 1-inch overhang. Top with a 9-inch metal pie tin. Bake for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack. Remove parchment paper and weights; let cool.
  • Beat 1 egg in a small bowl. Brush the edge of the pie crust with egg. Starting with 1 dough curl, place the flat bottom on the egg-washed rim, with the curl perpendicular to the edge of the pie plate. Working in the same direction, continue placing curls next to one another until the rim of the pie shell is completely covered with curls. Transfer pie shell to refrigerator; let chill 1 hour. Brush curls with remaining beaten egg.
  • In a large bowl, mix together both sugars, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Add pumpkin puree and stir well to combine. Whisk in remaining 3 eggs and cream.
  • Pour pumpkin mixture into prepared pie shell. Transfer to a 375 degree oven and bake until filling is just set, about 40 minutes. Let pie cool completely on a wire rack. Sprinkle pie with praline topping just before serving.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh pumpkin puree. You can make your own pumpkin puree by roasting a pumpkin and then pureeing it in a food processor or blender.
  • If you don't have time to make your own praline sauce, you can use store-bought praline sauce.
  • Be sure to chill the pie crust for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to prevent the crust from shrinking.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. This will take about 45 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to firm up.

Conclusion:

This praline pumpkin pie is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for Thanksgiving or any other fall gathering. The creamy pumpkin filling is perfectly complemented by the sweet and nutty praline sauce. The pie is easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy hosts. Whether you are a seasoned baker or a beginner, you are sure to love this praline pumpkin pie.
