    Title: Hannah Wooley's Pumpkin Pie
    Categories: British, Pies
    Yield: 1 Pie

    2 Unbaked pie crusts: one top;
    -one bottom
    2 c Butternut or sugar pumpkin;
    -peeled; sliced
    2 c Tart apples; peeled; sliced,
    -(Northern Spy, Cortland, or
    -Granny Smith)
    3 tb Butter
    1/4 c Raisins
    1/4 c Dried currants
    1/4 c Sugar
    1/2 ts Cinnamon
    1/2 ts Nutmeg
    1/4 ts Cloves
    3 tb Dark sherry (such as
    -Oloroso)

    Heat the oven to 425 F. Peel the squash and apples and slice them
    into pieces that are roughly the same size: 3" long, 1" wide, 1/4"
    thick is a good guideline. Melt 1 tb in a frying pan and sauté the
    squash until softened, about 10 minutes. Combine the cooked squash,
    apples, raisins, and currants in a bowl. Toss them gently with the
    sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and sherry. Set aside.

    Place the first (bottom) pie crust in a pie pan, allowing for 2" of
    crust to drape over the sides. Layer the squash/fruit mixture into
    the pie. Dot the top with the remaining 2 tb of butter. Cover with
    the second (top) crust, crimp the edges, and cut a few vents in the
    crust to allow steam to escape.

    Bake at 425 F for 15 minutes, then lower the temperature to 375 F,
    turn the pie, and bake for another 50 to 60 minutes. Total baking
    time is between 65 to 75 minutes.
