The Bakeshop'S Sugar Pumpkin Pie
- 1 Sugar Pie pumpkin (about 3 lb.)
- 4 large eggs
- 2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 1/4 cups dark corn syrup
- 1 3/4 cups half-and-half (light cream) or whipping cream
- 2 baked 9-inch pie crusts
- Cut pumpkin in half crosswise and set cut side down in a 10- by 15-inch pan. Bake in a 350u0b0 oven until very soft when pressed, about 1 hour.
- When cool enough to touch, scoop out and discard pumpkin seeds. Scoop pumpkin flesh from rind and discard rind. Smoothly puree flesh in a blender; you need 2 cups. Seal any extra puree in plastic freezer bags and freeze up to 6 months.
- In a bowl, beat to blend the 2 cups pumpkin puree, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, salt, ginger, and cloves. Stir in corn syrup and cream.
- Set pie crusts in pans on a foil-lined baking sheet. Set baking sheet on the bottom rack of a 350u0b0 oven. Pour half the pumpkin mixture into each crust.
- Bake until pie centers barely jiggle when gently shaken, 50 to 55 minutes. If crust rims start to get too dark, drape affected areas with foil.
- Cool pies on racks. Serve warm or cool. If making ahead, cover and chill up to 1 day.
