Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 3-4 tablespoons ice cold water
• 1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin puree
• 1/2 cup honey
• 3/4 cup evaporated milk
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Directions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Add the cold cubed butter and using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Add the ice-cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the dough to the pie dish, trim any excess, and crimp the edges.
5. In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, honey, evaporated milk, eggs, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk until well combined and smooth.
6. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie crust.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the pie is set and the crust is golden brown.
8. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
9. Serve the pumpkin honey pie with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy!
