Recently my dad was unhappy that I had grown a pumpkin patch which had taken over most of the garden. However, after I made him some of this pumpkin pie he keeps asking when I'll make the next one 😀 thanks for changing my dad's mind about these pumpkins! I've been sharing this recipe with friends while giving away my pumpkins. Absolutely delicious!
Out of all the videos I’ve watched about making pumpkin pie from actual pumpkins, this is by far the best and easiest to follow. Well done, I’m going to give this a try.
Thanks Gardener Scott! By the way, another reason to roast pumpkin vs boil or steam is that roasting does not add water to the puree and boiling/steaming will.
The metal spoon scraping 😅😅😅 hahaha that said this looked delish and easy to follow so i dont feel discouraged ty❤
Last year I grew some sugar pumpkins. I didn't really know what to do with them, so I washed them, peeled them, chopped them into chunks, and steamed them until fork tender. Then I mashed them measured out 2 cup portions, and froze it all in plastic bags. The puree was SO sweet. I made pumpkin bread, and it was awesome!👍🏻
More cooking shows ...please
this man did good its time to make pies again...
I'm baking mine today. I found it easy to use my fingers to pull out seeds..then I scrape the strings out. I'm getting them ready for my birds. but...I think I'll make a pie for NewYears. Thank you.
I add pumpkin to the egg mixture when making french toast. Now when I make french toast, my sons always ask if it has pumpkin. If not, they don't get excited for the french toast.
That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing.
That sounds delicious. Thanks for the suggestion.
VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO! Great Job!
My daughter will love this recipe. Thanks.
Thank you.
I made this years ago it came out great. I bought a small sugar pumpkin from Whole Foods Market. I did not use condensed milk, I remember using sugar, cinnamon, ginger, vanilla exract, ground cloves, and possibly ground nutmeg. It was great back then. I should try again.
This is one of the easiest pumpkin pie recipes to follow. I've made a few pies from pumpkins that I grew and they were delicious due to your recipe
Thanks for posting your video, its very helpful 👍
My first time cooking suger pumpkins and making pumpkin pie. The pie was excellent. I went back to the market for 2 more pumpkins. Yum
For some reason, I couldn’t find how to make pier from sugar pumpkins in any of my cookbooks. So I came to UA-cam and found your video! My pie is in the oven and the seeds are set aside ready to roast. Thank you!
Your knowledge and content were amazing. Thank you.
Thank you for the video. I’m growing Sugar Pie Pumpkins for the first time and will be harvesting soon.
Thank you for showing us the full circle of . Sowing seeds the Harvest the fruit the cooking the fruit I hope you do more videos on cooking pie pumpkins I enjoy lerning.with your. Knowledge
❤going to try tomorrow ❤thank you sis for leading me here
Awesome!! I decided to grow some sugar pumpkins this year and had a really nice harvest. Last year grew some Carolina Field pumpkins and made some pies which were ok but know what you mean by the strings and moisture. I was a little worried about no sugars in your recipe but WOW your right about the sugar content in these little guy’s and with the sweetened condensed milk what a home . Thank you for such a awesome video and recipe.
You really helped me get my pie. Easier. Thanks 😊 Lynne
I’m in quarantine with my family and we decided to grow our own pumpkin patch this year! I’m trying to learn as much as I can about sugar pumpkins for my dad because he’s our family’s baker and I have the green thumb😅 This video was amazing! Thank you for sharing your pumpkin knowledge!
Thanks for the video! I’m a produce manager and I bought too many sugar pumpkins for thanksgiving for my store, going to buy some and give this a try!
Update! I added an extra egg yolk to my pumpkin pie mix and the pies were a big hit! Thanks again for the video!
Im going to grow some next year just for pies.
Thanks Scott-
Gonna try this soon.. I have sugar pumpkins growing on a trellis in my garden. First time I’ve grown them. I really enjoy your detailed videos. You are a great teacher.
Thank you very much, Robert. My daughter made her first pumpkin pie this way and agreed it's delicious.
Gardener Scott - How do you tell for sure if the pumpkins are ripe? First time I’ve grown them.
First, the color should change to orange or yellow. The outer skin should be firm; if you poke with your thumbnail it won't cut into the pumpkin. The stem should turn from green to brown. If you thump it, it sounds hollow (this takes practice to figure out).
Gardener Scott -Thanks again sir..
I watched this after your suggestion in the seed unboxing video, you are correct! This was an incredible video! I will not go into all of the details but trust me when I say that I have made upwards of 10,000 pumpkin pies (most likely more) in my lifetime. You pie looked PERFECT! I am now tempted to try this fresh pumpkin recipe myself hahahahha....
Thanks. Stay tempted... it's worth it.
I made this when my in-laws were visiting and it was a hit! I didn't find it necessary to puree the pumpkin, but besides that I followed the recipe to a T and it was the best I've ever had. Thank you for putting this recipe out there! I don't think I can ever go back.
Hi, I have 2 Sugar pumpkins that I want to use for making my first homemade pies. so, for the last 3 weeks, I have been searching UA-cam for the right video to learn from, And I found it. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to make this video it was perfect for me, and I can't wait to give it a try. I will get back to you and let you know how it turned out 😃
I look forward to hearing of your results. My sugar pumpkins are on the counter ready to become another delicious pie.
I love using those sugar pumpkins for my pies. Thanks for sharing. Your pie looks delicious. Hope you have a great day 👩🏻🍳☺️💕
You're welcome. It is truly delicious. Thanks.
Gardener Scott Your Welcome
Awesome video Scott. This video is much better then any other I've found. Thank you so much for teaching me the step by step process
Thanks, Buck. Enjoy the pie!
Gardener Scott heck yea man! It's delicious! I think the ginger adds a lot of extra flavor!
Glad to hear it. I love it.
Love this 😊
Finished it last night. We all loved it! Thanks for the great recipe!
I've never seen the seeds in the store for sugar pumpkins. I'll have to look closer next yr.
I LOVE ❤️ pumpkin pie and want to get to this point one day! After your last interview with Eli I had to come watch this! I am saving it to my recipes playlist!
Yum i wanted to join you both THANK YOU for sharing recipe and hmmmm yummy😅🎉❤
I harvested 32 sugar pumpkins a few days ago. I'm making pumpkin pie for the first time this fall. Wish me luck. Thank you for the recipe and the very detailed video Scott!
Good luck. I'm sure you'll like your pies.
No added sugar pie! Excellent! I learned that I should use fresh grated nutmeg and ginger. Haven't tried that before. I am sure it adds to the fresh great flavor. Thank you for sharing your recipe! I freeze my extra pumpkin puree in glass snap dishes.
Yup, I to came over to watch the video after watching your unboxing video.
I have never used sweetened condensed milk for pumpkin pie in place of sugar.
Now I have to try it lol.
Thanks for sharing.
And I thought I was done with all my seed orders but now I'm gonna need some sugar pumpkin seeds.
Hugs
Good for you, Donna. Thanks!
I have sugar pumpkin seeds ordered for this year's garden and plan on making a pie and other goodies from them. Thank you for sharing.
Enjoy your pie... it's great!
Excellent !!
Thanks, Steve.
if i could have pumpkin pie 3 times a day, id think i was in heaven. however: this was a rabbit trail for me. i gotta make some pumpkin wine now ;)
... bookmarked ur page so i can make the pie later lol
I do a very similar recipe. :) I also like to do a butternut squash pie this way - also very tasty!
Oooh, that sounds good too.
are those seeds viable as well at this point to save seeds or would they need to sit in the pumpkin longer?
If the pumpkin is ripe, the seeds should be viable.
Thank you for for this video! I appreciate you showing your harvest, and what you can do with it. As a new gardener, it helps to see what all can be done with what you grow. I plan on growing these, as well as Buttercup and Honey Boat Delicata, this year. I may have a bit of a sweet tooth. LOL
Thank you for this great recipe!
So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
@@GardenerScott I'm goin t try t I got two pumpkins today and don't want to waste them
I'm new to growing pumpkins, and I now realize much can go wrong. Your choice of the best variety for eating (pies mostly) and easiest to grow? I made a couple of pies from Mammoth Golds and they were very good. I'd like to try some others that might have more disease and pest resistance.
I've had good success with New England Sugar Pie pumpkin.
@@GardenerScott Thanks, the instructions and the pies were really good. This year my tomatoes, Parks Whoppers and Beefmasters, did very well. Everything else was a bit of a disappointment. Corn(Peaches and Cream) was just so so, watermelons (Florida Giant, Jubilee, and Crimson sweet) were barely edible, pumpkins (Mammoth Gold and Jack O Lantern) almost brought me to tears as the plants died one after another, and my fig bush still hasn't given a fig. I plan to try a new spot for the plants next year. Has to be well fenced, we have deer in the yard every day.
Love these videos! Can the pumpkin puree be frozen and stored?
Absolutely. I did that with my extra pumpkins and made pies months later.
@@GardenerScott Thank you.
If you've stored these over winter, and its spring again... how do you know if its still safe to eat the pumpkin after its been stored that long? Thanks.
If it's leaking, soft, moldy, or discolored, it's bad.
Im growing sugar pumpkins
👍
Is the pie crust frozen or thawed? We are making one from our harvest this year and couldn't tell what to use. Very new to making pies.
The crust is thawed. Enjoy it!
@@GardenerScott Thanks for the rapid reply! I have no doubt it will be delicious. I will make sure to let you know. Thanks again!
Thank you again for this. I made purée this week using your recommendations and made delicious pumpkin muffins. “Miss Annie’s Home and Kitchen” on UA-cam has the best Pumpkin Bread recipe for small loaves or muffins. (I increased the cinnamon and added chopped walnuts and sometimes add chocolate chips)
If you boil the pumpkins, don't you lose some of the sugar content?
Some sugar may be lost, but it's a dense fruit and a lot of sugar remains.
@@GardenerScott Thank you!
Is the pumpkin puree able to sit in the fridge for 4 days until I'm ready to make the pie or do you suggest freezing?
It can be refrigerated for four days.
can i add the spices to the 2 cups left over to freeze?
Sure. That saves steps when you use it later.
If I was going to freeze some to save would I just cook them like you did and freeze the puree?
Yes, freezing the puree is better than freezing the raw pumpkin.
@@GardenerScott Thank you so much for replying so thankful for your channel! Have a blessed day!!!
Do you have a recipe for roasting the pumpkin seeds? We've roasted them before and turned out great. But thought I would ask you for suggestions that we may not have thought of.
I just coat them with olive oil, toss with salt and roast in a hot oven for a few minutes. When I see them turn color I take them out and enjoy. My daughter likes to add cayenne pepper.
@@GardenerScott just made the pumpkin pie recipe you shared and its delicious! Thanks for sharing.
I have 2 sugar pumpkins 🎃 growing in my garden. It is September 1 today, when should I harvest my pumpkins? They are already looking a bit orange. I don't know if I can pick them yet or leave them outside for another couple of weeks.
When the vine begins to turn brown and the skin is hard enough to resist a thumbnail, they should be ready.
@@GardenerScott Thank you so much! I'll try this recipe out! 🙂
I took my pumpkins out at 50 minutes, i think an hour would've burned them
Tin foil trick ruined my pie crust
