SAVORY WINTER SQUASH PIE
Instead of using frozen winter squash, you can roast butternut or acorn squash until tender and then mash it before getting started on this recipe. The bacon roses are a fun garnish, but this winter squash pie can easily be made without them. -Erica Sinclair, Hamilton, Ontario

ROASTED ACORN SQUASH AND HONEY
Few side dishes are better on a cool fall evening than roasted acorn squash sweetened with just a little honey and made even mellower with nutmeg and fresh sage leaves. When I catch a whiff of it coming from the oven, I feel warm and comforted, and you will, too.

HONEY ACORN-SQUASH PIE
Steps:
- Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse to combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, and salt. Add butter, and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal. In a small bowl, lightly beat 2 egg yolks with 3 tablespoons ice water; drizzle over flour mixture, and pulse until dough just begins to come together (add up to 1 tablespoon more ice water if mixture is too crumbly). Shape into a disk, and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 1 hour or up to 1 day.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Halve squashes lengthwise; remove seeds and cut flesh into wedges. In a large, lidded pot fitted with a steamer basket (or colander), bring 2 inches of water to a boil. Place squash in basket (in batches if necessary); cover, and steam until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 20 to 30 minutes (check water level periodically). Let cool completely. Scrape flesh from cooled squash, and purée in a food processor until smooth. Add honey, cinnamon, ginger, and salt, then add whole eggs and 1/2 cup milk. Pulse until thoroughly combined.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 13-inch round, 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 10-inch pie plate; trim excess dough flush with rim. Cut edge of dough 1/2 inch deep at 3/4-inch intervals; bend every other section back toward center. Whisk together remaining 1 egg yolk and 1 tablespoon milk; lightly brush edge of crust. Refrigerate or freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Pour filling into pie shell on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F, and continue to bake 30 to 40 minutes more, or until filling is barely set (it will continue to firm as it cools). If crust is browning too quickly, cover with a foil ring (see page 324). Transfer pie to a wire rack to cool completely. (Filling will separate from crust as it cools.) Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold, with whipped cream. Pie can be made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated, covered.
