Maple Pumpkin Pie in a cast iron skillet and pie leaves is easy to make and the perfect fall dessert.
With maple syrup being a part of my childhood, I’m adding granulated maple sugar to mashed pumpkin and whipping up a homemade pie in a Lodge cast-iron skillet. I’m loving their new two handle pans. Did you order one yet? Granulated maple sugar is the granulated form of maple syrup- nothing added. It doesn’t have the moisture maple syrup does, therefore it won’t change your recipes if you substitute it in place of regular sugar.
Where do I find granulated maple sugar?
Granulated maple sugar is the granular form of pure maple syrup. There is nothing added to it! It’s simply heated up to a very high temperature and stirred until all of the moisture is gone. If you live in New England, it’s available in most country stores, specialty food stores, and sugar houses. If you’re not in New England, order it on Amazon. 
I wanted to share with you a recipe for my Maple Pumpkin Pie. Thanksgiving and the holidays are literally right around the corner. This recipe is a must for family celebrations. Once you cook your first pie in a cast-iron skillet, you’ll never go back to a normal pie plate. Trust me. The crust becomes perfectly cooked, in every way and your fillings will be delicious.
How do I make a pumpkin pie?
Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk the eggs slightly. Then whisk in the remaining ingredients together, until smooth. Set aside.
Step 2: Using either homemade or store-bought pie dough, place one round in the bottom of a 9-inch cast-iron skillet. Roll under the crust and pinch your crust, using your fingers.
Step 3: Pour the pie filling into the unbaked pie shell. If desired, add decorative pie dough leaves on the top of the pie filing.
Step 4: Bake in a preheated 425 degree F oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven to 350 degrees F and continue to bake for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick when inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely. Refrigerate until serving. Serve with homemade whipped cream.
Aren’t these pie leaves cute? Get creative with your pies this fall and add all these beautiful leaves. Buy them here.
If you’re making an Best Ever Homemade Apple Pie, lightly brush the top crust with egg wash and add leaves around the outside edges, or in any creative way you’d like.
