How to Make Pumpkin Pie Amish Recipe Delicious

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour in a medium bowl.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk together 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree, 2 large egg yolks, 1/2 cup molasses, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of scalded milk (heat milk until just simmering, then remove from heat) into the pumpkin mixture.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  6. In a small saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter until browned. Let cool slightly before stirring into the pumpkin mixture.
  7. Gently fold in the dry ingredients (sugar and flour mixture) into the pumpkin mixture until just combined.
  8. In a clean bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the pumpkin mixture.
  9. Pour the filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crusts.
  10. Bake for 10 minutes at 400°F (200°C), then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 40-45 minutes, or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
