Ingredients:
***CRUST***
1/4 cup canola oil
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsp granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
4 tbsp 1% milk, up to 5
***FILLING***
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
2 large eggs
4 large egg whites
15 oz unseasoned pumpkin puree
1 cup evaporated skim milk
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions:
TO MAKE CRUST:
1. In a small bowl, stir oil and 1/4 cup flour until smooth; cover and
chill in the freezer until partially frozen, about 40 minutes.
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk remaining 1 cup flour, sugar, baking powder and
salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut chilled oil-flour paste into
dry ingredients until crumbly. With a fork, stir in milk just until a soft
dough forms. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 7 or 8
times. Press into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate while
preparing filling.
TO MAKE FILLING & BAKE PIE:
1. Position rack in lower third of oven; preheat to 425°F. Lightly oil a
9-inch pie pan or coat it with nonstick spray.
2. In a large bowl, whisk sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Add eggs and
egg whites and whisk until well blended. Add pumpkin, whisking until
smooth. Whisk in milk and vanilla.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough into an 11-inch circle.
Drape dough over rolling pin and fit it into prepared pie pan. Fold edges
under and crimp. Place pie on a baking sheet.
4. Pour filling into crust and bake for 10 minutes. Cover edges with strips
of aluminum foil to prevent overbrowning.
5. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F; bake for 55 to 60 minutes more, or
until center barely jiggles when the pan is tapped. Transfer to a wire
rack. Let cool. If not serving within an hour, loosely cover and
refrigerate.
