MY PERFECT PUMPKIN PIE Pumpkin pie is my favorite

MY PERFECT PUMPKIN PIE

Pumpkin pie is my favorite dessert, and I actually have it every year as my birthday cake in October. I finally have my version of a perfect pumpkin pie recipe up on the blog in time for Thanksgiving! 🥧🎃

My top tips: I always use Libby’s canned pumpkin (it’s the best), I never strictly measure how much pumpkin pie spice I put in (it’s measured by the heart 😂) and lately I’ve been a big fan of par baking the crust beforehand. Using this method, you avoid over baking the filling and reduce the risk of the custard cracking. See today’s stories for how I make and roll out my pie crust. 🥧

In the recipe there are directions for par baking the crust, and the direct bake way too. And pie spice tips. You can find the link in my bio.

Happy Thanksgiving week bread friends. This year I

Happy Thanksgiving week bread friends. This year I just had to jump on the turkey loaf bandwagon. I honestly couldn’t stop giggling throughout the process of baking this fat little 🦃 sourdough.

Such a fun and silly trend, inspired originally by @sourdoughwithsachi from years ago, and more recently by @yanabacheva & @sometimefoods.

Since I’m a vegetarian, this is the best way to celebrate turkey day in my book 🦃. I dusted my turkey loaf with a bit of dark cocoa powder before baking to get that caramelized look, and then I also sprayed a little coconut oil on the crust right out of the oven for a bit of sheen. Baked as always in my @challengerbreadware pan.

So happy to join the #myleafyloaf challenge hosted

So happy to join the #myleafyloaf challenge hosted by my friend @artbreadlove & @breadbykarenhey. 🍂🍁 This leafy sourdough scoring design was inspired by much of the work by @zoe.zhuhui. 🤍🍃🌿

Before using the @sourly 5 minute score, I was always too intimated to try such delicate scoring. But this awesome technique allows you to preserve and set the shallower decorative designs by adding the main expansion score 5 minutes into baking. Total game changer. I was also so excited to open the lid half way through and see some crazy oven spring. 🤩🌾

Here’s another one of my favorite scoring design

Here’s another one of my favorite scoring designs that I come back to all the time, with slight variations. I just love how these beaded wheat stalk patterns make the loaf look like a cozy little knit sweater. 🧶🤍🌾
