In the Kitchen With Krissia

Hello world! Finals week is over and I am home again and resurfacing to the world with a pumpkin pie recipe from my friend, Krissia.  With Thanksgiving this week, pies, goodies, and turkey is on my mind. This recipe is really quite yummy-can't beat a graham cracker crust.

Here's what you will need

Here's the recipe
**the recipe makes 1 and 1/2 pies so you can easily double it to make three or freeze excess batter**

Crust (for one pie)
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
6 tbs butter-melted
1/4 cup granulate sugar
1/4 tsp cinnamon

Filling
2 whole eggs
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tbs melted butter
1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cloves
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract

*preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. for the crust and lower it to 275 degrees for the filling*

combine butter, graham crackers, and melted butter

Once mixed, put the mixture in the pie pan and press around. You can use a cup to create an even edge. Cook the crust for 10-15 minutes at 350.

Combine the eggs, yolks, and sugar in the large bowl. 

Add melted butter, pumpkin, cream, spices, salt, vanilla and whisk the mixture. 

Fill crust and bake for 90 minutes

Now there is only one thing to do, ENJOY!

Happy Baking and Happy Thanksgiving!
