Preparation
Step 1
Use high-quality flour. Eggs should be large and selected. If eggs are small, use 3.
Step 2
Peel pumpkin and remove seeds. Grate the pumpkin finely. Optionally, you can blend it into puree, but the pie may turn out wetter than with grated pumpkin. Choose fragrant, sweet pumpkin.
Step 3
Combine room-temperature eggs with sugar and beat with a mixer until fluffy. Many small air bubbles should form on the surface. How well you beat the eggs affects the pie's fluffiness. Do not overbeat to a dense white - the air bubbles will disappear, and even baking powder won’t help. The batter may not rise or will rise poorly.
Step 4
Add grated pumpkin to the beaten eggs and mix again.
Step 5
Sift flour with baking powder and gradually add to the batter, mixing thoroughly each time until uniform.
Step 6
Important! Do not add all the flour at once. Adjust based on batter consistency. It should be thick but not stiff. Consistency depends on egg size, pumpkin moisture, and flour quality. If batter is too dense, beat an extra egg with 1 tbsp sugar and fold in, or thin with milk.
Step 7
Wash apples, remove cores, and slice. Optionally peel. For large apples, one is enough for this batter. You can cube apples and fold into batter or place slices on top (step 8).
Step 8
Line a 20 cm (8-inch) pan with parchment and grease with vegetable oil (not needed for silicone pans). Spread batter evenly. Arrange apple slices on top. Bake in preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 40-45 minutes. Test doneness with a wooden skewer - it should come out dry.
Step 9
Remove finished Pumpkin and Apple Pie from pan, cool slightly, and serve. Enjoy!
