Ways to embellish your pumpkin pie
One fun way to embellish your pie and make it gorgeous is to add some pie crust cut outs to the edge. You can also add them around the pie. Here’s an easy recipe for making them as well: On a floured work surface, roll out a pie crust. Using your choice of cookie cutters, cut into shapes. Brush each lightly with the beaten egg + milk mixture. Place onto a parchment paper or silicone baking mat-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F (177°C) for 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove and set aside to cool before decorating pie.

Finally, Bake until the edges of the crust are starting to brown, about 15-16 minutes. Remove pie from the oven and carefully lift the parchment paper (with the weights) out of the pie.
