Unit of measurement

Ingredients

200 gPlain Flour or Gluten Free Plain Flour Blend
100 gButter
4 tbspsWater
200 gBaking Beans
200 gBaked Pumpkin
2 Eggs
300 gCondensed Milk
1 Lemon (rind grated)
100 gPecans

Method

  1. Bake the pumpkin until the flesh is soft. Scoop out the flesh, puree & set aside.
  2. To make the pastry put the flour and butter into a large bowl and using a fork mash the butter into the flour until it resembles breadcrumbs.
  3. Stir in 3 tbsp water and quickly bring the pastry together into a sticky ball of dough. Gluten Free pastry absorbs more water than conventional pastry so add 5tbsp and few more drops of water if necessary).Wrap the dough in film and rest it for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Put the pastry out on a floured surface or between two pieces of film.
  5. Roll out the pastry so that it is large enough to fit into a deep 1lt/2pt baking dish or simply press the pastry into your baking dish using your fingers.
  6. Put a sheet of greaseproof paper over the pastry, add the baking beans and cook in a pre heated oven for 20 minutes.
  7. Meanwhile mix together the pumpkin puree, eggs, condensed milk and grated lemon rind.
  8. Remove the pastry from the oven and turn it down 20 degrees.
  9. Remove the baking beans and greaseproof paper.
  10. Pour the pumpkin filling into the pastry case.
  11. Spread the pecans across the top of the pumpkin mixture.
  12. Bake for 45/50 minutes at the lower temperature.
