SAVORY WINTER SQUASH PIE
Instead of using frozen winter squash, you can roast butternut or acorn squash until tender and then mash it before getting started on this recipe. The bacon roses are a fun garnish, but this winter squash pie can easily be made without them. -Erica Sinclair, Hamilton, Ontario

ACORN SQUASH AND HONEY PIE WITH CORNMEAL CRUST
An appealing alternative to pumpkin pie, these small pies are filled with acorn squash, a delicious yet underused vegetable. Cornmeal gives the crust texture and enhances the pies; slightly nutty flavor.

- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disk of dough 1/8 inch thick. Drape over pie pan, trimming edges to fit rim of pan. Create decorative edge as desired. Repeat with remaining dough and pie pans. Mix egg yolk and remaining tablespoon milk; brush over surface of dough.

HONEY ACORN-SQUASH PIE
It's fun to tinker with a familiar formula to create an altogether different dessert. In this twist on pumpkin pie, acorn squash is sweetened with honey and spiced with cinnamon and ginger for the filling, while cornmeal lends texture and flavor to the crust. The checkerboard pattern on the piecrust's edge is simple to do-just snip the dough along the rim at even intervals and bend every other section back toward the center. Don't skip the step of chilling the pie shell before baking-it's crucial to helping the edge retain its shape.

Steps:
- Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse to combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, and salt. Add butter, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. In a small bowl, lightly beat 2 egg yolks with 3 tablespoons ice water; drizzle over flour mixture, and pulse until dough just begins to come together (add up to 1 tablespoon more ice water if mixture is too crumbly). Shape into a disk, and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 1 hour or up to 1 day.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Halve squashes lengthwise; remove seeds and cut flesh into wedges. In a large, lidded pot fitted with a steamer basket (or colander), bring 2 inches of water to a boil. Place squash in basket (in batches if necessary); cover, and steam until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 20 to 30 minutes (check water level periodically). Let cool completely. Scrape flesh from cooled squash, and purée in a food processor until smooth. Add honey, cinnamon, ginger, and salt, then add whole eggs and 1/2 cup milk. Pulse until thoroughly combined.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 13-inch round, 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 10-inch pie plate; trim excess dough flush with rim. Cut edge of dough 1/2 inch deep at 3/4-inch intervals; bend every other section back toward center. Whisk together remaining 1 egg yolk and 1 tablespoon milk; lightly brush edge of crust. Refrigerate or freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Pour filling into pie shell on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F, and continue to bake 30 to 40 minutes more, or until filling is barely set (it will continue to firm as it cools). If crust is browning too quickly, cover with a foil ring (see page 324). Transfer pie to a wire rack to cool completely. (Filling will separate from crust as it cools.) Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold, with whipped cream. Pie can be made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated, covered.
