Author's Notes

To make the optional maple-roasted pumpkin seeds, wash the seeds, pick out any pieces of stringy pumpkin flesh, and set them on a paper towel to dry. Transfer the seeds to a sheet pan, toss with 2 tsp olive oil and 2 tsp maple syrup, and sprinkle with salt. Roast for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F (180 degrees C), then toss and continue to roast in 5-minute increments, tossing between, until the seeds are toasted and golden brown. Transfer to a dish to cool.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
First, make the crust. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the All-Purpose Flour (1 1/3 cups), Granulated Sugar (1 Tbsp), and Kosher Salt (1/2 tsp) and pulse a few times to mix. Add the Unsalted Butter (2/3 cup) and pulse until the butter is cut into roughly dime-sized pieces.
step 2
With the processor running, gradually add the Water (1/3 cup) and process until the dough just begins to come together. Dump the dough out onto a floured board, form into a round, then wrap with plastic and chill for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
step 3
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
step 4
Prep your Pumpkin (1). Make vertical cuts around the stem and remove it as you would for a jack-o-lantern. Carefully cut the pumpkin in half lengthwise and, using a spoon, remove the seeds and pulp. Save the seeds for the optional maple-roasted pumpkin seeds, or discard.

step 5
Slice the pumpkin halves into wedges about 11/2-inches thick and place them on a sheet pan. Drizzle with Olive Oil (2 Tbsp), Maple Syrup (2 Tbsp), and a pinch of salt and toss well.
step 6
Roast for 40-50 minutes, turning the wedges halfway through, until very tender when pierced with a fork. Set aside until cool enough to handle.

step 7
On a floured surface, roll the dough into a circle about 1/4-inch thick, turning and flouring the dough often to keep it from sticking. Carefully transfer to a 9-inch or 9.5-inch pie plate and lightly press the crust into the sides of the plate.
step 8
Trim the edges, leaving about 1/2-inch of overhang. Fold the excess dough underneath at the edges and crimp the pie dough using your fingers or the tines of a fork. Chill for 30 minutes.
step 9
Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake the crust for 15 minutes.
step 10
Bake for another 5-10 minutes, until the crust is a pale gold color.
step 11
Set aside to cool slightly and lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
step 12
Make the filling. Scoop the cooked pumpkin flesh into a bowl, discarding the skins. Measure out 2 cups (packed) or 15 oz pumpkin, saving any extra for another use.
step 13
Combine the pumpkin and Whole Milk (1/2 cup) in the bowl of a food processor and process until very smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
step 14
Transfer the puree to a large bowl. Add Heavy Cream (1 cup), Farmhouse Eggs® Large Brown Eggs (3),Brown Sugar (1/2 cup), remaining Maple Syrup (3 Tbsp), Ground Cinnamon (1/2 tsp), Ground Ginger (1/4 tsp), Ground Nutmeg (1/4 tsp), Ground Cloves (1/4 tsp), Kosher Salt (1/4 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1 pinch). Whisk until smooth.

Whisk until smooth.
step 15
Pour the filling into the par-baked pie crust. (If you are using a 9-inch pie plate, you may have a small amount of filling leftover.)
step 16
Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the pie is completely set around the edges but still has a slight jiggle in the center.
