Ingredients

For the Pie

  • 1 frozen deep-dish pie crust
  • 1 15-oz/400g can pumpkin purée
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter room temp
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup half and half single cream
  • tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

For Decoration

  • 1 small frozen pie crust ready-rolled pastry
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F/190°C/Gas 5. Place pie crust into a pie dish.
  • To make the pie filling, use an electric handheld or standing mixer to mix together the pumpkin purée, sugar, and unsalted butter together until smooth.
  • Continue beating the mixture while adding in the eggs, half and half, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice until everything is combined.
  • Pour the pumpkin filling into the pie crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the decorations by using mini fall cookie cutters to cut pumpkin and leaf shapes from the pie crust.
  • Mix the sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle over the pastry shapes.
  • Remove pie from the oven and arrange pastry shapes on top. REturn pie to the oven and cook for a further 15 minutes - or until the pie filling has set and the pastry shapes have browned.
  • Remove pie from the oven and leave to cool on a wire cooling rack.
  • When cool, place in the fridge to chill for 2-3 hours before serving.
  • Served with whipped cream. Enjoy and Happy Fall Y'all!
