Recipes: Pumpkin Pie

Good day, Bakers!

This is a recipe that I got on a sticker on a pie pumpkin we got from the store. We haven't tried this exact recipe, but we've had pumpkin pie made from fresh pumpkin before. It's my favorite kind of pie. However, if the pumpkin was in a can or not fresh, I like it fine, but it tastes nowhere near the same.

First, cook your pumpkin, which I explained how to do last month in my post: Recipes: Fresh Pumpkin.

Here is the pumpkin pie recipe:

Ingredients

I, unfortunately, did not make these wonderful pies.

-1 1/3 cups pumpkin
-1 1/3 cups sweet condensed milk
-1 egg
-1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
-1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
-1/2 teaspoon ginger
-1/4 teaspoon cloves
-1 cup hot water

First, preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Next, beat all the ingredients together until they are smooth.

After this, pour it into a 9 inch pie crust (you can get them premade from the grocery store).

Then, bake for 55 to 65 minutes.

Let cool, then eat!

Recipes: Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie

Hello, Pie-Lovers!


Here is a recipe for a simpler version of strawberry-rhubarb pie. We always used to have strawberry-rhubarb pie when I was young, and it is one of my favorites. Here is a recipe from http://allrecipes.com/recipe/12612/rhubarb-and-strawberry-pie/

Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 pound fresh rhubarb, chopped
2 pints fresh strawberries
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons white sugar

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, mix flour and sugar. Add strawberries and chopped rhubarb. Toss with sugar and flour and let stand for 30 minutes.
3. Pour filling into pie crust. Dot top with butter, and cover with top crust. Seal edges of top and bottom crust with water.
4. Apply yolk to top of pie, using a pastry brush. Sprinkle with sugar. Cut small holes in top to let steam escape.
5. Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), for 35 to 40 minutes, or until bubbly and brown. Cool on rack.
