New England Squash Pie image

As a transplanted New Englander, I have been unable to find squash pie filling here in Florida. Squash pie has a much more delicate flavor than pumpkin pie and is my husband's favorite pie. I usually cook up a big squash and package it in 2 cup containers to put in the freezer. If you use skim milk, 1/8 of a crustless pie is...

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c butternut squash
1/2 c sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground ginger
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
1 1/2 c milk
1 unbaked pie shell

Steps:

  • 1. Cook fresh or frozen squash. Put it through a food mill to make it smooth. Put a coffee filter into a sieve and put the squash in it. Let it drain until no liquid comes out.
  • 2. Measure 2 cups of squash and add sugar and spices. Mix well. Add the eggs and mix. Using a whisk, blend in the milk. (If you want a richer filling, substitute cream for some of the milk. For the diet conscious, use skim milk.)
  • 3. Pour into an unbaked pie shell. Bake at 425 for 20 minutes. Then lower the temperature to 375 and continue baking for 45 minutes or until a shape knife inserted into the filling comes out clean.

My pie didn't turn out as creamy as I expected. I think I might have overcooked it.

I didn't have any allspice, so I used a combination of cinnamon and nutmeg instead. The pie still tasted great!

My squash pie turned out a little too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll reduce the amount of sugar.

This pie was so easy to make, and it turned out perfectly. I used a store-bought crust, but I'm sure it would be even better with a homemade one.

I've made this squash pie several times now, and it's always a hit. The hardest part is waiting for it to cool before slicing it!

This New England squash pie was absolutely delicious! The filling was smooth and creamy, with just the right amount of sweetness. The crust was flaky and golden brown. I will definitely be making this pie again.
