Amish Pumpkin Custard Pie Recipe

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400°.

Step 2

Separate the eggs. Beat the whites until stiff and set aside.

Step 3

Mix egg yolks with the pumpkin. Add sugars, syrup, flour, salt, and spices. Mix well.

Step 4

Brown the butter and add it to the mixture. Or you can save some of it to drizzle over the top. I like how it looks with some of the butter drizzled over the top.

Step 5

Add the warm milk and mix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the egg whites.

Step 7

Divide the mixture between the two pie crusts.

Step 8

Bake in the bottom half of the oven at 400° for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350° and continue baking for another 30 - 40 minutes or until set and no longer jiggly.
