Chunky Pumpkin Pie image

I came across this recipe while responding to a request in the forums. It came via the the Ask Jan Norris blog, and originally from a post on ChowHound. This pie uses pumpkin sliced as apples, and not as a puree. I hope to make it sometime, as I think I might like it better than the traditional type of pie. I edited the original recipe a bit for clarity. Update:: I've made this a few times and have revised the recipe extensively.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 pie, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups sliced sugar pumpkin, sliced as you would apples for a pie
2 -4 tablespoons water
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup sugar
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
double-crust pie dough

Steps:

  • Line a pie pan with bottom crust and dust with flour. (I used a 9 in but I think an 8in would be ok with 4 cups pumpkin).
  • Put the pumpkin slices in a medium bowl.
  • Combine the water and vanilla extract and sprinkle over the pumpkin slices, mixing to distribute. I used 2 tbl and that was enough.
  • Combine the cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar, salt and flour in a small bowl, mixing thoroughly to distribute the ingredients evenly.
  • Pour over the pumpkin slices and mix thoroughly. Turn into the pie pan.
  • Dot with butter and cover with top crust.
  • Bake in a 350 deg oven for 1 hour. Mine baked for an 1 1/4 hours.
  • Note: I tagged this for the Cooking Mania tag game, where you can tag one of your own, and really liked it. However, I am going to make this again, increasing the amount of pumpkin. I've already revised the instructions, which really made no sense in spots. Made this last night, all gone already. After making again: I sliced the pumpkin thicker, which I liked better - about 1/2 in thick. I think I like it better without the vanilla, so have made that optional.

This pie is the worst pumpkin pie I've ever had. It's dry, crumbly, and flavorless.

This recipe is a waste of time and ingredients. Don't bother making it.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pie turned out terrible. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This pie was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland. I won't be making this recipe again.

I had some trouble getting the crust to come out right, but the filling was delicious. I'll definitely try this recipe again.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, it was a great recipe.

I've tried several pumpkin pie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The flavor is rich and the texture is perfect.

This pie is the perfect fall dessert. It's warm and comforting, with just the right amount of sweetness.

I wasn't sure about the chunks of pumpkin, but they actually added a nice texture to the pie. I would definitely make this again.

This pie is a little time-consuming to make, but it's worth it. The flavor is incredible and it's sure to impress your guests.

This pumpkin pie was a hit at our Thanksgiving dinner! The chunks of pumpkin gave it a great texture and the flavor was perfectly balanced. I'll definitely be making this again next year.
