instructions
-
Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Roll out the pastry on to a floured surface, and line a 22cm fluted loose bottom tart tin with the pastry. Once lined with pastry, place in the fridge for 10 minutes to relax (this will stop the pastry from shrinking).
-
Remove the pastry case from the fridge and line with a sheet of parchment paper and baking beans. Bake the pastry for 15-20 minutes, then remove the paper and beans and cook for a further 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
-
In a bowl combine the pumpkin puree, caster sugar and spices, then beat in the eggs, melted butter and yoghurt.
-
Pour the mixture in to the tart shell and cook for 35-40 minutes until the filling has just set and has a slight wobble.
-
Leave to cool then remove the pie from the tin.
-
To serve top with swirls of apple & cinnamon yoghurt and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon. Serve chilled.
