Delicious twist on classic pumpkin pie, gluten-free and lightly spiced.
Ingredients:
  • vegetable oil
  • 1.4 kg pumpkin
  • 50 g unsalted butter
  • 125 g golden caster sugar
  • 4 level tablespoons gluten-free plain flour (I used Doves Farm)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 large free-range eggs
  • icing sugar to serve
  • 250 g gluten-free plain flour (I used Doves Farm)
  • ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
  • 50 g soft light brown sugar
  • a pinch of ground cinnamon
  • 125 g unsalted cold butter
  • 1 large free-range egg
  • semi-skimmed milk
Instructions:
  • - Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4 and grease a 25cm non-stick loose-bottomed tart tin with vegetable oil. - Halve the pumpkin, remove seeds, chop into wedges, and roast for about 1 hour until tender, removing the foil for the last 10 minutes. - Make the pastry by sifting flour and xanthan gum, adding sugar and cinnamon, rubbing in butter, and bringing it together with egg and milk. - Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes, then roll out and line the tart tin, pricking the base and chilling for 10 minutes. - Blind bake the pastry with beans or rice for 10-12 minutes, then bake without them for an additional 5 minutes until golden. - Cool the pastry completely. - Blend the roasted pumpkin, add brown butter, sugar, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, and eggs until smooth. - Fill the pastry case with the pumpkin mixture. - Create a lattice with leftover pastry strips on top of the pie, brush with beaten egg, and bake for 45-50 minutes until golden. - Dust with icing sugar and cinnamon before serving.
