Ricotta pumpkin pie recipe

[jjkaiser]

This is for you Bubby, hope you like it. And you honestly cannot taste the ricotta cheese.

1 9-inch pastry shell unbaked
2 eggs
1 cup ricotta cheese
1- 16 oz can solid packed pumpkin
3/4 cup brown sugar
1- 5 oz can evap milk
1-1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
Whipped cream

Preheat oven to 375. In mixing bowl beat eggs lightly, beat in cheese, blend till smooth. Add remaining ingredients (except whipping cream) & mix until well blended. Pour into pastry shell. Bake for 45 mins.

You might need to cover loosely with foil the last 10-15 minutes. I bake until a crack forms, or you can just bake until knife inserted in middle comes out clean.

I'm in charge of the pies for my sisters' house and pumpkin is the kind they want,, Do you suppose this tastes enough like pumpkin that they won't know I'm trying a new recipe?? Think I'll try one regular and this new one. It sounds so good.

They made this as a cheesecake on Kelly Ripa this morning. Instead of regular pie crust, it was made from crushed gingersnap cookies and melted butter. Looked yummy. Recipe is on her website.

I'm going to try this. Sounds yummy. None of our stores sell the 5-oz cans of evap. milk so I'll have to remember to measure out what I need. I'm lucky to have an wonderful Italian market in town and they have the best ricotta in the world. Thanks for posting.

Re: Ricotta pumpkin pie recipe

I bought the ricotta at last (non available locally) and I'm ready to bake. Can't wait to taste the difference.

Sounds delicious. Have to make it when we have company as family doesn't care for pumpkin pie and I would have to eat the entire pie myself. On second thought that isn't such a bad idea.
