What a great taste!
Ups, do I buy pumpkins like others shoes? From my last shopping there are still pumpkins left. Many of them are piled on the table in the garden. Too many!!! Of course a pumpkin is not just a pumpkin, they have so many different colors, shapes and each kind does have another taste.
I love the fragrance of apples, pumpkins and cinnamon. The taste of this pie is so yummy. Butternut pumpkin, apples and cranberries are delicious ingredients for this pie. When the days close in and the weather will be colder, then a cup of tea or coffee with a piece of this apple pumpkin pie will be the right choice.
Chef’s Handyman Apple Pumpkin Pie Baking Recipe:
This is my favorite one. Maybe not only mine…!
To make filling: Peel 10 apples, take the core out and cut apples in slices. Peel 10 oz. of pumpkin, take out seeds and cut pumpkin in small pieces. Melt 2 tbsp. of butter in a pan. Add apple and pumpkin pieces, 4 tbsp. of cranberries, 4 tbsp. of spiced sugar or 4 tbsp. of sugar and 1 tsp. of cinnamon and lemon rind. Simmer for 10-15 minutes. Add 2 tbsp. of flour. Cool mixture.
To make dough: Mix 13 oz. or 2 cups of flour, 1 tsp. of salt, 1 tbsp. of spiced sugar or 1 tsp. of cinnamon and 7 oz. of butter together. Add step by step 0.25 cup of water. Knead well. Cut dough in half. Roll first half of dough out onto lightly floured surface. Make sure the dough does fit in the pie tin.
Prepare 9 inch baking tin or pie tin with parchment paper or grease it. Move the dough in the baking tin. Smooth pastry into tin with pressing movements. Add apple pumpkin mixture. Roll the remaining dough out. Cut out rounds or hearts. Place them on the top of filling. Apply whisked egg and sugar.
Bake in oven at 230°C or 450°F for 10-15 minutes then reduce heat to 190°C or 375°F and bake for another 30-40 minutes or until baked through.
