“There is nothing I would not do for those who are really my friends. I have no notion of loving people by halves, it is not my nature.”
― Jane Austen
I promised to bake something for a little gathering and so inspired by the season, Halloween and a fellow bloggers blog, I decided to bake a pumpkin-banana pie with a spider web! The same pie I baked for Thanksgiving, just without the spider web. The pie was gone before I remembered to take a picture 🙂
1 unbaked 9 inch pastry shell + 10 small pie shells (optional)
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. cinnamon
1,5 cup canned pumpkin
2 mashed ripe bananas
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup evaporated milk
Mix the dry ingredients – brown sugar, flour, salt and spices together and add the wet stuff – pumpkin puree, bananas, eggs and evaporated milk. Mix thoroughly. Pour into unbaked pastry shell(s). Set aside.
250 g white cream cheese
1/2 cup white sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
Mix everything together and use the piping bag to draw the spider web on top of the pie. Not an easy task 🙂
You can easily just make half of this recipe for the spider web. I made double because I plan to make cream cheese stuffed muffins.
Bake at 400 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until tip of knife comes out clean.
Cool it down and then put it in the fridge for at least two hours!
Awesome every time!
Loved it!
Yum. Your spider web looks so much better than mine. 😀 Great Job. I noticed you really have this pie thing down from all your other pie/tart posts including the cooking club ones lol. Also you did this so fast too, great turn around time.
Thank you for inspiring me 😉 I just find pies very easy to make, especially with my Kitchen Aid mixer. I mean it basically does all the work for you 😀
