Curtis loves pumpkin pie and until I started making it from scratch, I didn't realize how easy it is to make!
I'm excited to work with Country Crock to bring you this pumpkin pie recipe! I have so many childhood memories food memories related to Country Crock. The big tub was always on our table and when we finished it off, it was used as a food saver container…did you all do the same thing?
Take a minute to watch this video, I show you how to easy it is to make homemade pumpkin pie!
I used Country Crock® Salted Buttery Sticks that I purchased at Publix. You don't have to wait for them to soften, just use them right out of the refrigerator.
First, mix the flour and sugar in a bowl. Then add 6 Tablespoons Country Crock® Salted Buttery Sticks.
It's great for all of your holiday baking needs and I love that it's made with sunflower oil.
I used a pastry blender to the buttery stick into the flour. You can use two forks if you don't have one.
Add 1 tablespoon of ice cold water at a time, up to 2 to 3 of them.
Once a dough starts forming, you know you have added enough water.
Form the dough into a ball.
Add flour to a surface and roll the dough out using a piece of parchment paper.
Once the dough is spread out a little bit, be sure to add flour between the paper and the dough.
Roll it out to a 12-inch circle. Super easy!
Put the pie crust into a pie plate and press down. Crimp the edges and pour the filling in.
Bake and let it cool for at least two hours. I like to serve my pie chilled.
It's so easy…you can do it too! Don't forget to watch the video too!

This looks soooo good. I can’t believe I haven’t made pumpkin pie yet this year, it’s definitely time.

Such an easy pie to make from scratch. I’ve gotten lazy and rarely make my own pies, but this is getting my interest back.

This came out gorgeous. This looks like my kind of pumpkin pie and I think I’ll be making it to impress my family for our next holiday dinner!

You made making a pie look so easy. I have always been too afraid to make one because of the crust. I am going to attempt to make a pumpkin pie this year using your recipe-wish me luck 🙂
