Number Of Ingredients 19

32 gingersnaps, coarsely broken
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
4 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons unsalted butter, melted
1 envelope unflavored gelatin (1 scant tablespoon)
1/4 cup cold water
1 1/4 cups canned pumpkin (from a 15-ounce can) or fresh pumpkin puree (see Cook's Note below)
3 large eggs, separated
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup whole milk
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 small sugar pumpkin, peeled
1 cup water
1 1/2 cups packed light-brown sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
1 piece (2 inches long and 1 inch wide) peeled fresh ginger, sliced 1/4 inch thick

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Process gingersnaps, granulated sugar, and salt in a food processor until finely ground. Add butter, and process until combined. Divide mixture among six 5-inch pie plates, pressing into bottom and up sides. Place on a baking sheet, and bake until darkened and firm, 11 to 13 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes. Using an offset spatula, carefully unmold crusts, and return to sheet to cool. (Crusts can be stored in pie plates in airtight containers for up to 2 days.)
  • Make the filling: Sprinkle gelatin over cold water in a bowl. Let stand until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Combine pumpkin, egg yolks, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, milk, salt, and spices in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until mixture begins to thicken, about 8 minutes. Do not boil. Remove from heat. Stir in gelatin mixture until dissolved. Let cool completely.
  • Beat egg whites with a mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Whisk one-third of beaten egg whites into cooled pumpkin mixture. Gently fold in remaining whites. (Filling can be refrigerated, covered, overnight.) Spoon into pie shells, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 2 hours).
  • Make the garnish: Using a vegetable peeler, shave pumpkin into thin, wide ribbons. Bring water, brown sugar, cinnamon sticks, and ginger to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add pumpkin pieces, and reduce heat. Simmer gently until tender and translucent, about 8 minutes. Pour into a bowl, and let cool completely. (Garnish can stand at room temperature for up to 3 hours.) Top each pie with 3 or 4 pumpkin pieces, discarding syrup. Serve immediately.
  • Variation: This recipe also can make two 8-inch pies; be sure to leave the crust in the pie plate before adding the filling.

PUMPKIN-APPLE CHIFFON PIE



Pumpkin-Apple Chiffon Pie image

Provided by Joanna Pruess

Categories     dessert

Time 6h45m

Yield Eight servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 1/3 cups finely chopped chocolate wafers (about 25 cookies)
5 tablespoons sweet butter, melted
2 tablespoons sweet butter
2 cups cooking apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 2 small apples)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 1/4 cups cooked pureed pumpkin (fresh or canned)
1 package plain gelatin
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 egg yolks
1/2 cup half-and-half
3 egg whites
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup coarsely chopped toasted pecans
1/2 cup chilled heavy sweet cream
2 teaspoons powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • To make the crust, butter a nine-inch Pyrex pie plate. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Break the wafers into pieces. Place in processor and make fine crumbs, about one and one-third cups. Add the butter and pulse five to six times or until the crumbs are coated with butter.
  • Empty the contents into the pie plate, reserving one tablespoon for garnish. Press the crumbs thickly onto the sides of the pan with a spoon, forming a half-inch border. Use a glass to press the remaining crumbs into the bottom of the dish.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The crust should set, but not brown. Cool and set aside.
  • To make the filling, melt the butter in a heavy three-quart saucepan. Stir in the apples, sugars, spices and rind. Bring to a slow boil. Cover and simmer for five minutes. Remove the lid, raise heat slightly and continue to cook the apples for six to eight minutes or until the caramel syrup forms a six- to eight-inch thread when dropped from the tip of a spoon. Stir occasionally. Watch carefully: If the syrup becomes too hot, it will taste bitter and quickly burn.
  • Immediately remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the pumpkin, gelatin and salt. Blend well and return to flame. Cook on low heat until the mixture is very hot, stirring constantly.
  • Blend the yolks into the half-and-half. Gradually whisk into the filling. Heat slowly to just under boiling, about one-and-a-half to two minutes.
  • Empty the filling into a processor. Puree for 45 seconds. Pour into a large bowl and place over ice for five minutes to cool to room temperature. Stir occasionally. The filling can also be cooled in the refrigerator.
  • Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Add sugar, one tablespoon at a time, to form a meringue. Beat 30 seconds longer.
  • Stir a quarter of the egg whites into filling. Fold in the remaining whites and the toasted pecans at the same time, reserving one tablespoon of nuts for garnish. Mound the filling into the pie shell. Smooth surface with a spoon. Chill until set, about six hours or longer.
  • To make the garnish, whip the cream in a chilled bowl. As it starts to thicken, add the sugar and vanilla. Beat until fairly thick. Pipe or spoon around the edge of the pie. Sprinkle the top with the reserved crumbs and nuts.

Provided by Earl R.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 pie, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 25

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 ounces unsalted butter, diced and frozen
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons sour cream (additional)
3/4 teaspoon allspice
1 3/4 teaspoons cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 large eggs (beaten)
1 teaspoon brandy (optional)
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 (3 ounce) envelope unflavored gelatin powder
1 1/2 cups canned unsweetened pumpkin puree
3/4 cup brown sugar
4 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons spice essence
3 large egg whites
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • 1) The crust: Pulse the flour and salt together in food processor. Scatter frozen butter over the flour; pulse until the mixture is the size of large peas, (about 20 pulses). Add Sour Cream, and pulse until the dough forms a ball. Flatten the dough into a 4" disk, wrap tightly in plastic, and chill for 1 hour, or up to 2 days (or freeze up to 1 month).
  • 2) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Let dough rest on the counter for 10 minutes to soften slightly. On a lightly floured work surface, roll dough into a 12" circle. Transfer to a glass pie plate. Trim excess dough, leaving about 1/2" hanging over the edge. Tuck excess underneathe itself to form a neat edge. Press in a decorative border with your fingers.
  • 3) Line Pie Shell with a double layer of foil; fill with pie weights or old beans. Bake 15 minutes. Remove weights and foil, and continue baking until the crust is golden and crisp. (About 5-10 minutes more) Place Pie Shell on cooling rack.
  • 4) Combine all the ingredients for the 'SPICE MIXTURE' mentioned in ingredience.
  • 5) Pumpkin Custard: Whisk heavy cream, eggs, brandy, and 1 tsp of 'spice mixture'. Add the pumpkin and sugars, whisking to combine. Pour Pumpkin Custard into warm pie crust. Bake until the edges are set and the center registers 175 degrees on instant thermometer -- about 30 minutes. Cool to room temperature (about 1 - 2 hours).
  • 6) Pumpkin Chiffon: Combine the gelatin and 1/4 cup cold water in a small saucepan and let soak for 5 minutes (to firm up a bit).
  • 7) In a saucepan at medium heat, whisk together the Pumpkin Puree, Brown Sugar, Egg Yolks, and 2 teaspoons of 'Spice Mixture'. Stirring constantly, bring to a simmer. Remove from heat and transfer into a bowl.
  • 8) Heat the Gelatin in the saucepan over low heat until melted, 1 - 2 minutes. Stir the Gelatin into the chiffon until well combined. Chill covered until the mixture is just set (about 15 - 20 minutes) and the center jiggles slightly when shaken.
  • 9) Using and electric mixer, whip the egg whites at medium-low speed until frothy (about 1 - 2 minutes). With the mixer still running, sprinkle in 2 tbls. Sugar, and increase the mixer speed to medium-high, whipping until stiff peaks form (about 1 -2 minutes).
  • (If you are concerned about the use of raw egg whites, you can whisk the egg whites and sugar in the top of a double boiler until the egg whites reach 140 degrees - just be careful that you don't end up with scrambled eggs - before beating them to stiff peaks).
  • 10) Whisk a quarter of the Meringue into the Chiffon mixture to lighten it. Gently place the remaining Meringue on top of the chiffon, while you whip the heavy cream and 3 Tbls. of sugar into stiff peaks.
  • 11) Gently fold the remaining Meringue and 1/4 cup of the whipped cream into the chiffon until no white streaks remain. Spread the chiffon mixture over the Pumpkin Custard, mounding it slightly higher in the middle. Spread the whipped cream attractively over the top, sprinkle with additional spices if desired.
  • Serve immediately, or refrigerate untio needed.

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin purée: Fresh pumpkin purée will give your pie a more intense pumpkin flavor. You can make your own pumpkin purée by roasting a pumpkin and then puréeing it in a food processor or blender.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pie tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes: This will help the pie set and prevent it from becoming runny.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will help the pie set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin chiffon pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for fall gatherings. With its creamy, pumpkin-flavored filling and light, fluffy crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone. Be sure to experiment with different flavors and toppings to create your own unique pumpkin chiffon pie.
