Delicious Mini Pumpkin Pies Recipe for Fall Festivities
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cold water
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well mixed.
- Cut in 1/2 cup of unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add in 1/4 cup of cold water, a tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of canned pumpkin puree, 3/4 cup of sweetened condensed milk, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon of ground cloves, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare the muffin tin and roll out the dough.
- On a floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Using a cookie cutter or a round cutter, cut out circles large enough to fit into each muffin tin cup.
- Gently press the dough into the cups, making sure it covers the bottom and sides.
- Carefully pour the pumpkin filling into each prepared crust, filling them about 3/4 full.
- Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the mini pumpkin pies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
