Make a Perfect Pumpkin Pie with Crust Shapes

Share the Ideas & Inspiration

There is a big difference in eating a homemade pumpkin pie vs. a frozen pie you heat up. First is the crust. You will love my no-fail pie crust along with my two favorite pumpkin pie recipes.

I use the remaining pie crust to cut shapes to lay on the sides of my crust. Here I used mini leaf cutters and brushed with egg yolk to give it a nice shine.

Do you need a Pie Crust?

I have two easy pumpkin pie recipes – one using the pre-made pumpkin pie mix and the other using pumpkin puree (you add the spices and sugar, etc.)

Both turn out great.

What you need:

Pie crust recipe (save left over dough for shapes)
Mini cookie cutters or knife to cut shapes

Pumpkin Pie:
Pumpkin Pie Can (it already has all the cinnamon etc.)
2/3 Cup evaporated milk
2 eggs

Whisk well. Pour into prepared pie crust.
Put in hot preheated 400 degrees oven for 10 minutes.
Then bring temp to 350 degrees for another 50 – 60 minutes.
