1

Design a Pie Crust Pattern

Start by designing a unique pattern for your pie crust. You can use cookie cutters to create shapes like leaves, pumpkins, or even turkeys. Get creative and make it your own!

2

Prepare the Pumpkin Filling

To make the pumpkin filling, whisk together canned pumpkin puree, sugar, spices (like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves), eggs, and evaporated milk. Mix until smooth and creamy.

3

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Roll out your pie crust and carefully place it in a pie dish. Line the crust with parchment paper and add pie weights or dried beans. Bake for about 15 minutes to partially cook the crust.

Assemble the Pie

Remove the pie weights and parchment paper from the partially baked crust. Pour the pumpkin filling into the crust. Smooth the surface with a spatula and make sure it's evenly distributed.

5

Create the Artistic Design

This is where your creativity shines! Use your pre-designed pie crust shapes to create a visually stunning pattern on top of the pumpkin filling. Arrange the shapes in a way that showcases your artistic flair.

Bake and Serve

Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake at 425°F (220°C) for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for another 40-50 minutes, or until the filling is set. Once done, let it cool before serving.
