Ingredients
- 2 pounds Fresh pumpkin Peeled, shredded
- 1 Lemon Juice
- 1 tbsp Orange zest
- 1 tbsp Vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp Pumpkin spice mix Ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves
- 2 Eggs Beaten
- 2 cups Flour All purpose
- 2 cups Farina Cream of Wheat is my brand of choice
- 1 cup Sugar I use raw
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 3 sticks Butter Unsalted, chilled, and diced
Instructions
- Grate pumpkin on the medium sized grater or in the food processor. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Add juice of 1 lemon, 1 tbsp of pumpkin spice, 1 tbsp of vanilla, 1/2 cup of sugar, and eggs. Combine.
- In a separate bowl, mix flour, farina, 1/2 cup of sugar, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Divide flour mixture into 3 parts.
- Butter and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Place one part of flour mixture on the bottom of the pan, do not press.
- Add a layer of the pumpkin mixture, approximately half.
- Add the second part of the flour mixture.
- Top with the rest of pumpkin. Gently sprinkle the remainder of flour/butter mixture.
- Place pan in the preheated oven at 350°F for approximately 40 minutes.
- To check if the pie is done, take a toothpick and insert it into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, or with a few moist crumb, this pie is done. Otherwise, you are going to need to add more baking time.
- Once fully baked, let it cool to room temperature before serving.
