Pumpkin Pie Filling

Not a fan of pumpkin? Bake it into a pie! Give it a try — it's good for you! I love pumpkin and cook it every which way. But today I want to share one of my very favorite recipes: a sweet filling for pies. It comes out juicy and fragrant, and usually some of it gets eaten before the dough is even ready :) This amount of filling is enough for a pie (or pies) to serve 4.

  • Cook the rice and pumpkin for the filling separately, or the filling will turn into an unappealing mush. Start by prepping the raisins: rinse them, cover with hot water, and leave them to plump up. While the raisins soak, get to the rice. Rinse it thoroughly, put it in a saucepan, and add water to about ½ inch above the rice. Simmer, covered, over low heat for 15 minutes, then let the cooked rice cool. Use the rice's cooking time to prep the pumpkin: peel off the hard skin, remove the seeds, and grate it on the large holes of a box grater. Put it in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and add enough milk (or water) to cover the pumpkin halfway. Cook over low heat until tender (soft). If any extra liquid is left at the end, drain it off. With the rice and pumpkin sorted, come back to the raisins: drain them and pat dry with a paper towel. If they're large, chop them. The final step is combining everything: add the rice, raisins, honey (or sugar), and cinnamon to the pumpkin. Mix well and let it sit for a bit. The pumpkin filling is ready to use. Bake your pies with pleasure! Enjoy!
