This is the kind of pie I grew up with, starting from late October until late spring almost every Sunday my mom would bake a pumpkin pie. It's light and if you use the right pumpkin you don't have to use too much sugar.
Ingredients:
- 200 gr warm water
-100 gr. sunflower oil
-a pinch of salt
-1/2 tsp dry yeast
- 3 or more cups of flour
- 3.5 lbs sugar pumpkin (get it organic- it makes a huge difference in taste)
- 5 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Pour flour in a big bowl and make a small circle in the middle. Mix the yeast in the water then pour along with the oil and salt. Knead it until it makes an elastic dough and let it aside for 30 min. Cut your pumpkin into small cubes, grate it and mix it with sugar and cinnamon. Divide the dough into five pieces, then take each one of them and roll it out very thin. Pour the pumpkin mixture into it and roll it. Brush it with a beaten e.g. and sprinkle a little sugar on top. Bake at 350 for about 45 min or until it's golden.
Bon appetite!!
