WINTER SQUASH PIE
When I was a kid, everybody made pumpkin pie from a can and I didn't get it. There were beautiful squashes in the fields in October and November just screaming to be made into a fresh pie, which is why I love to make a sweet, beautiful faux pumpkin or squash pie.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cut the squash in half, sprinkle both halves with the salt and sugar, and dot with 2 tablespoons butter. Bake in a casserole for one hour or until tender. Remove from oven and let cool. (Note: The squash can be roasted and scooped from the skin 3 days in advance.)
- Put the flour onto a clean surface or into a large bowl and make a well in the center. To the well, add the salt, the sugar, the butter, and 1 tablespoon cold water (add more if needed). With your fingertips, push the flour and butter together until large clumps form. Scoop the mixture together and with the heel of your hand, push until the dough comes together. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or freeze for up to 2 weeks.
- Dust a clean surface with flour; with the end of a rolling pin, pound the chilled dough into a large disc.
- Roll the dough to fit an 11-inch pie plate: start from the center and roll away from yourself. Transfer the dough to the pie plate and gently press the dough into the plate and chill for at least 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place a large piece of parchment over the dough and weigh it down with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges are golden brown, 15-20 minutes, rotating once. Remove from the oven, pour the beans into a heat-proof pan, and cool the crust. (Note: The crust can be rolled out and pre-baked up to 3 days in advance. After cooling, cover with plastic wrap or foil and store at room temperature.)
- For the filling, remove and discard the seeds from the cooked squash. Scoop the flesh into a large bowl. Add the cream, eggs, brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, pinch of salt, lemon zest, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Whisk to combine, leaving the squash chunky.
- Pour the mixture into the pie crust. Bake until the custard is set and golden-brown, 40-50 minutes.
- Let cool and serve with cinnamon-flavored whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the crust: Roll out pate brisee to a 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Fit dough into a 9-inch pie plate, and trim crust to a 1-inch overhang. Fold edges under, and crimp as desired. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Drizzle pumpkin and squash wedges with olive oil, and roast on a rimmed baking sheet until tender (times will vary).
- Line crust with parchment, leaving an overhang on all sides. Fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edges of crust begin to turn golden, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven, and remove weights and parchment. Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes more. Let cool on a wire rack.
- Peel pumpkin and squash, and transfer flesh to a food processor. Puree until smooth.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Whisk pumpkin and squash puree, eggs, egg yolks, heavy cream, sugar, brandy, sage, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves, nutmeg, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a bowl.
- Pour filling into pie shell, and smooth top using an offset spatula. Bake until just set but still slightly wobbly in the center, about 1 hour (filling will continue to set as it cools). Let cool on a wire rack. Serve slightly warm, at room temperature, or chilled, with whipped cream.
PUMPKIN (OR SQUASH!) PIE
I bought a HUGE white squash at our local farmer's market this weekend; the little old lady selling it told me that I could get "5-6" pies out of it. Well, there was enough squash to make EIGHT PIES! So, I made two and froze the rest of the filling. Anyway, this recipe produces a spectacular pumpkiny custard, and you CAN replace the pumpkin with a mild-flavored squash; simply remove the seeds and rind, cut into chunks and boil until soft. Then puree, and voila--you have what usually comes in the cans! Originally from the Joy of Cooking.

WINTER SQUASH/PUMPKIN PIE
I do not like canned or processed pumpkin. I looked years for a recipe i like and this is it. To spice it up a bit try Captain Morgans spiced Rum. Prep time does not include the time to cook the squash or make the pie shell.

WINTER SQUASH PIE
Winter squash come in many sizes and shapes, but all have hard outer rinds that surround sweet, often orange flesh. Winter squash arrive late in the growing season and have a long storage life, so they've long been a staple in winter and spring when other vegetables are harder to come by. Pumpkin, acorn squash, Hubbard squash, buttercup and butternut squash are all examples of this wonderful vegetable. This recipe only uses one cup of squash, so it's a good way to recycle a little dab of leftover squash into something new and wonderful. From the New England chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.

- Heat oven to 400°F. Cut the squash in half with a large, sharp knife and remove seeds with a spoon. Lightly brush the cut side of a squash with canola oil. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and brush lightly with canola oil. Place the cut side of the squash down and bake until the skin is soft and easily pierced with a skewer, about 40 minutes. Allow to cool, then scoop the flesh from the skin with a spoon. Puree until smooth using a food processor or immersion blender. Measure out 3 cups of pureed squash. Reserve the rest for another use.
- Move oven rack to lowest position. Place a rimmed baking sheet on the rack and preheat it at 400°F. Line your pie shell with 2 layers of foil, ensuring to cover edges of crust and fill with pie weights (or dried beans - you will not be able to cook with the beans after this). Bake on the heated baking sheet for 15 minutes. Remove foil and pie weights and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven - pie shell MUST still be warm when the filling is added.
- While the crust is baking, stir together 3 cups of the pureed squash, brown sugar, maple syrup, ginger, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg together in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and stir constantly for 15-20 minutes, until thickened.
