Let's make it!
- Step 01
Pre heat the oven to 180 fan bake.
- Step 02
Carefully slice the pumpkin skin, then cut the pumpkin into small chunks. Steam the pumpkin over a saucepan of boiling water until nice and soft. Set aside to cool.
- Step 03
Using a food processor, blitz the digestives into a thick crumb. Then add the soft butter and whizz together until well combined.
- Step 04
Grease a 24cm loose based quiche tin, then add the biscuits and press the crumb firmly into the base and up the sides. Gently place it into the fridge.
- Step 05
Once the pumpkin has cooled, mash it well or puree it in a food processor. Set aside.
- Step 06
In a large bowl, mix the eggs, cream, maple syrup, mixed spice and sugar. Now fold in the pumpkin. Whisk well and then pass the mixture through a sieve, working with a spatula to press it all through.
- Step 07
Pour the pumpkin mix into the biscuit base. Bake for 35-40 minutes until the filling has set. Set aside once cooked to cool off.
- Step 08
Whilst the pie is baking, make the walnut brittle. In a small pan add the butter, sugar and walnuts. Simmer over a low/medium heat for roughly 5 minutes or until the walnuts are golden brown.
- Step 09
Carefully pour onto a piece of parchment paper to cool.
- Step 10
Sprinkle the walnut brittle over the top of the spiced pumpkin pie and enjoy with a side of whipped cream and a cup of Nespresso Pumpkin Spice Cake latte.
