I'm going to get a jump start on the Autumn season I think. It is my favorite time of the year. I don't know what it is about Autumn, the pumpkin flavored everything, cinnamon flavors...or maybe it is the fact brown is my favorite color??? I think corporate America also is getting a bigger and bigger jump start on the Autumn season as well. Pumpkin Ale is all over the shelves at the grocery store. All kinds of brands, from the micro-brewers to the massive brewers.

Ingredients

  • 2 - 9-inch pie crusts laid in pie pans, unbaked
  • 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 2 - 15 ounce cans of pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup blue moon brand pumpkin ale (or whatever brand you like)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • - chocolate syrup, for garnish (optinal)

How To Make pumpkin ale pie

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 425'F Once oven reaches temperature reduce oven temperature to 350'F
  • Step 2
    In a large mixing bowl cream sugar together with sour cream, butter and egg yolk. Slowly mix in pumpkin puree and eggs until completely incorporated.
  • Step 3
    Stir in vanilla, cinnamon, flour, salt and nutmeg. Mix in pumpkin ale until completely incorporated.
  • Step 4
    Pour batter out into two unbaked pie crusts. Garnish pies with chocolate syrup. I did it by making lines in the pie then dragging a design with a toothpick on the pie.
  • Step 5
    Use a pie shield, or fold aluminum foil over the outer edge of the pie crust so it doesn't burn when you bake pie. Bake pies on center rack for 40-50 minutes until the center sets. Cool completely before serving.
