Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams ginger snap cookies
- 70 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 425 grams pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
- 120 milliliters heavy cream
- 100 grams brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
Place ginger snap cookies in a food processor and pulse until finely crushed into crumbs.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ginger snap crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Use the bottom of a glass to press the crust evenly.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, then remove and let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, heavy cream, brown sugar, eggs, ground ginger, grated fresh ginger, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until smooth and well combined.
Pour the pumpkin filling into the cooled ginger snap crust.
Bake the tart in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
Remove the tart from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Serve slices of the chilled tart with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
