Make the Crust
Start by preparing your pie crust—the flaky, buttery foundation of this dessert.
Place a large mixing bowl on your PantryChic base and dispense 1 1/4 cups (155g) all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon (1.5g) salt directly into the bowl. Add 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, chilled and cubed.
Cut the butter into the flour until pea-sized crumbs form. Add 3–4 tablespoons of ice water, one at a time, until the dough just comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
When ready, roll the dough into a 12-inch circle, fit it into a 9-inch pie plate, trim the excess, and crimp the edges. Set aside while you make the filling.
Whisk the Filling
Now it’s time to create the star of the show—the pumpkin custard filling!
Place a large mixing bowl on your PantryChic base unit and dispense the following directly from your SmartCanisters:
-
3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
-
1/4 cup (50g) light brown sugar
-
1 1/2 teaspoons (3g) ground cinnamon
-
1/2 teaspoon (1g) ground ginger
-
1/4 teaspoon (0.5g) ground nutmeg
-
1/8 teaspoon (0.25g) ground cloves
-
1/2 teaspoon (3g) salt
Whisk the dry ingredients together to evenly blend the spices and sugars.
Next, add the wet ingredients directly to the bowl:
-
1 (15-ounce) can pure pumpkin
-
2 large eggs
-
1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
Whisk everything together until smooth and fully combined. With the PantryChic ensuring precise measurements, your spice balance will be perfect every time, delivering that unmistakable fall flavor in each bite.
Bake It to Perfection
Pour the filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Bake on the center rack of a preheated 425°F oven for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F and bake for 40–45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the pie on a wire rack for at least two hours before slicing. This helps the custard set and the flavors deepen beautifully.
Serve and Savor
Serve each slice with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon. Each bite is rich, creamy, and full of cozy fall warmth. With PantryChic SmartCanisters, your measurements are precise, your prep is simple, and your results are flawless—every single time.
