Pumpkin Pie from Scratch
2 hours 45 minutes
It's hard to find a pumpkin pie recipe that doesn't call for tinned pumpkin but fresh is so much better! The dough and filling can be prepared a day in advance if you like.

- Roast the pumpkins in the oven at 200 degrees C until soft and cooked. Let cool, remove seeds and scrape out the flesh from the rind.
- Mix all of the dry ingredients for the dough in a food processor. Add butter and process. With the food processor running, gradually add water until a dough forms, but don't over process it.
- Divide dough into two pieces, shape into flat discs, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Mix all ingredients for the filling in the food processor. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees C.
- Roll the dough out into circles and use to line two 22cm pie tins. Pour in the filling and decorate with remaining dough if desired.
- Bake 15 minutes, then turn oven down to 180 degrees C and bake 45 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
- Let cool and serve with cream!
