While it seems to be a classic pumpkin pie, this dessert holds a surprise. Pumpkin filling has been blended with a rum-infused caramel. The addition of homemade caramel to the pumpkin puree brings a deeper flavour to the dessert.
This was an outstanding pie and it disappeared quickly from the table.
Of course, nobody was allowed to eat any until it had been properly photographed, both pie and slice.
Many thanks to Janell of Mortensen Family Memoirs for choosing this pie and giving me another reason to be thankful for special family dinners.
Here's another look at the maple tuiles.
I"m so jealous. I think I am the only TWD baker that messed this one up. And I'm not even sure what I did wrong! Help? Yours looks sooooo perfect (as usual). Love your blog.
ReplyDeleteThis was not a favorite at our house. Ah well. Yours looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pie and yummy too. Great combo.
ReplyDeleteBurgundy chocolate is a delicious semi sweet chocolate chunk that can be purchased from King Arthur Flour. It is dangerous! Have a great day!
I WAS wondering what that was in the center of the pie. Looks great. This was a great pie for sure!
ReplyDeleteawesome tuiles - great pics!
ReplyDeleteand yummy looking pie too.
That looks really really great...nice and dark and deliciously comforting.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you liked the pie! I love your photograph. The leaves in the background are so beautiful. We don't get much of that here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for baking along with me this week!
My sweet tooth says those tuiles would make perfect scoops for butterscotch pudding. Like chips and dip for the sugar fiend. But my sweet tooth has no restraint whatsoever. It's dragging me to Cheesecake Factory this weekend for pumpkin pecan cheesecake.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of pumpkin and caramel together. lovely pictures of a perfect pie.
Wow, your pie turned out beautifully. And the maple tuiles sound like such an amazing garnish. Nicely done!
