Unlike traditional pumpkin pie, this old-fashioned frozen pumpkin dessert is made with two distinct creamy layers and can be prepared ahead of time for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or other special occasions. Renee shows you how to concentrate the flavor of canned pumpkin, bloom the spices, protect the pastry crust with a thin coating of chocolate, assemble and freeze the pie, and temper it for clean slices. Each serving is finished with fresh whipped cream and a drizzle of pure maple syrup.
For more than fifty years, John's Flaming Hearth was one of Niagara Falls, N.Y.’s best-known restaurants, and for many of those customers, the meal wasn't complete without a slice of his sister’s pumpkin ice cream pie.
During our research, we discovered a recipe published under the John's Flaming Hearth name in a Niagara County Community College Women's Club cookbook. We couldn't establish whether it was the exact recipe used in the restaurant, but it gave Renee a starting point for developing her own interpretation.
When the restaurant finally closed in February 2006, the story of its famous pie wasn't over. John brought the recipe with him to the Polish Nook when he started working there, and now the tradition continues with the third generation of Polish Nook owners. Order up a Polish Platter and finish it off with a slice of legendary pie.
Did you ever eat at John's Flaming Hearth? Do you remember its pumpkin ice cream pie, the little homemade loaves of bread, or a special occasion you celebrated there? We'd love to hear your memories in the comments.
