Sweet pumpkin pie
Ingredients:
450gr phyllo dough pie
1100gr yellow pumpkin
200gr granulated sugar
1 teaspoon clove, powder
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
70gr walnut, finely chopped
200gr coarse semolina
150gr extra virgin olive oil for brushing phyllo dough pie
powdered sugar
65gr raisins (optional)
Method:
- Grate the pumpkin in a grater, drain the excess moisture and then, put it in a bowl.
- Add the sugar into the bowl, mix and set it aside for 15 minutes. The pumpkin will extract its juices due to the sugar, so drain the excess moisture.
- Add clove, cinnamon, walnut, semolina (and raisins) into the bowl and mix.
- Grease a 25x35cm baking pan with extra virgin olive oil and spread half of the phyllo sheets, by greasing them one by one.
- Add the filling and cover with the remaining phyllo sheets, by greasing them one by one.
- Lightly score the pie and bake it for one 50'-60' to 170°C Fan.
- Then, dust it with powdered sugar and cinnamon.
Enjoy!
