The orange zest is not to be missed and truly enhances the overall complexity and depth of flavor of the pumpkin pie!

Why Does Pumpkin Pie Crack?

After baking a pumpkin pie, it’s crucial not to overdo it, as the filling, rich in eggs, can easily crack. Eggs play a key role in thickening and setting the custard when cooked. If pumpkin pie is left in the oven for too long, the proteins in the eggs can tighten too quickly, leading to cracks. To ensure a smooth and well-set pie, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool at room temperature. While it cools the custard will continue to set. Don’t worry if your pumpkin pie cracks, my pumpkin pies sometimes crack, they will still taste incredible!
