Girl Camper Janine Pettit’s pie iron pumpkin pie
Our friend Janine Pettit, the founder of Girl Camper, shared a wonderful idea for using pie irons to create individual pumpkin pies. Janine recommended getting your pie irons from Rome Pie Irons.
Ingredients
1 can Pumpkin Pie Mix*
1 can Carnation Evaporated Milk
1 loaf Soft White Bread
1 stick Butter, Softened
The Filling
• Mix pumpkin pie mix with evaporated milk until you get a mixture that is fairly thick
The Assembly
• Butter both sides of the bread
• Place one slice of bread onto the pie iron.
• Work carefully; the irons are hot!
• Spoon a big dollop of pumpkin mixture into the inside of the buttered bread
• Top with a second slice of buttered bread
• Remember, butter both sides!
• Seal the pie iron closed and remove any excess bread
The cooking
• Toast for a few minutes on each side over hot coals.
*Note: pumpkin pie purée and pumpkin pie mix are different. Make sure you get pumpkin pie mix which is pre-seasoned.
