Candy Roaster Pie

From Rose Creek Farms Coop

<p>Ingredients:<br /> 1-1/2 cups of heavy cream <br /> 2 cups of Candy Roaster Squash puree, see instructions<br /> 4 large eggs, beaten<br /> 1/2 cup white sugar <br /> 1/4 cup brown sugar <br /> 1 tsp. ground cinnamon<br /> 1/8 tsp. ground cloves<br /> 1/8 tsp. ground allspice<br /> 1 prepared raw pie crust</p> <p>Instructions:<br /> Add everything together and mix well. Pour into a prepared raw pie crust<br /> and put into a preheated 450F degree oven and set a timer for 15 minutes.<br /> When the timer goes off set the oven temperature to 350F degrees and bake<br /> for another 45 minutes or so until the edges of the pie are browning and<br /> the center is solid. Remove the pie from oven and cool for about 30 to 45<br /> minutes.</p> <p>For the Candy Roaster Squash Puree: Use a medium sized Candy Roaster<br /> squash , about 3 pounds. Cut open, take out the seeds and place the squash<br /> cut side down on a cookie sheet and into a 350F degree oven for about 45<br /> minutes; cook until it is softy and there is liquid on the bottom of the<br /> pan. When the squash is cooked take out of the oven, flip them over so the<br /> flesh side is facing towards the ceiling so it will cool faster.</p> <p>Take the cooked squash, remove the flesh and mashed it into a puree using<br /> a fork, a potato masher or a food processor to get the flesh smooth. If<br /> the squash seems watery put the puree into a strainer and let the water<br /> drip out for a couple of minutes, you can quicken this by gently pushing<br /> on the pulp in the strainer.</p>
