Instructions

1. Put the flour, salt and sugar (if using) into a large mixing bowl.
2. Cut the butter into small cubes and add it to the bowl.
3. Rub the butter into the flour with clean, dry hands until it looks like sand.
4. Add a few tablespoons of ice water and mix with a knife until the pastry comes together.
5. Form a ball and knead on a floured surface for 30 seconds until smooth.
6. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
7. Take the pastry out and let it warm for 5 to 10 minutes before rolling.
8. Roll out and fit into a pie dish. Trim the excess to leave an overhang of about 1/2 inch, then fold it under and crimp into a scalloped edge. Chill the crust.
9. In a clean bowl, whisk the sugar, spices and eggs until no lumps remain.
10. Add the pumpkin puree and cream or evaporated milk, and whisk until smooth and creamy.
11. Pour the filling into the chilled crust after it has chilled at least 30 minutes.
12. Put into a 230°C / 450°F oven, then immediately lower the heat to 170°C / 325°F. Bake for about 50 minutes to 1 hour, until the centre only slightly jiggles.
13. Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least a few hours.
14. Serve cold with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
