For the crust (organic-inspired):
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp organic cane sugar
- ½ cup cold unsalted butter cubed
- 3 –4 tbsp ice water
For the filling:
- 1 ¾ cups fresh pumpkin puree or organic canned
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- ¼ tsp ground cloves
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Make the crust: In a bowl, whisk flour, sugar, and salt. Add cold butter cubes and cut in with a pastry cutter or food processor until crumbly. Gradually add ice water until dough forms. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 30 minutes. Roll and pre-bake: Roll the dough on a floured surface, fit into a 9-inch pie dish, trim edges, and chill for another 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line crust with parchment and fill with pie weights. Bake for 15 minutes, remove weights, and bake for 10 more minutes. Let cool. Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, spices, and salt. Add eggs and yolk; mix well. Stir in milk, cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. Fill and bake: Pour the filling into the pre-baked crust. Bake at 350°F for 50–55 minutes, or until the center is just set and slightly jiggly. Cover edges with foil if they brown too quickly. Cool and serve: Cool on a rack for 2 hours. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Serve with whipped cream for the ultimate Pumpkin Pie Urth Cafe Recipe experience.
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for a more authentic and vibrant flavor.
- Chill the crust dough thoroughly to ensure a flaky, buttery base.
- Don’t overmix the filling—a gentle hand preserves a silky texture.
- Use a pie shield or foil to prevent the crust from overbaking.
- Let the pie cool completely to help the custard set properly before slicing.
