	- 2/3 ~~cup brown sugar~~

			4. Scoop out the flesh and puree until smooth1<ref name="ref5">5</ref>.

	1. ~~Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C)~~.		=== Pie Crust ===
			You can use a homemade or store-bought 9-inch pie crust1<ref name="ref2">2</ref>. For a crisp bottom, blind bake the crust before adding the filling[7].

	~~2. Prepare your pie crust by rolling it out and placing it in a 9-inch pie dish. Trim~~ the ~~edges and crimp them with a fork or your fingers.~~		== Making the Filling ==

	~~3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed winter~~ squash~~, heavy~~ cream, brown sugar, ~~eggs, cinnamon~~, nutmeg, ~~ginger, and salt. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.~~		=== Basic Ingredients ===
			- 2 cups squash puree
			- 1 1/2 cups cream or evaporated milk
			- 2-3 eggs
			- 3/4 cup brown sugar
			- Spices: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt1<ref name="ref2">2</ref>[3]

	~~4. Pour the mixture into the pie crust, using a spatula to spread it out evenly.~~		=== Optional Additions ===

			- Maple syrup
			- Fresh ginger1<ref name="ref3">3</ref>

	5. ~~Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes~~, or until ~~the filling is set~~ and ~~a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean~~.		=== Mixing the Filling ===
			1. Whisk together squash puree, cream, eggs, sugar, and spices until smooth1<ref name="ref3">3</ref>.
			2. Taste and adjust sweetness and spices as needed.

	~~6. Remove~~ the ~~pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes.~~		== Baking the Pie ==

	7. ~~Serve the~~ pie ~~warm or~~ at ~~room~~ temperature~~, topped~~ with ~~whipped cream or ice cream if desired~~.		1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)[5].
			2. Pour filling into prepared pie crust[5].
			3. Bake for 15 minutes at 375°F[5].
			4. Reduce temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 40-50 minutes[5].
			5. The pie is done when the center is set but still slightly jiggly[5].
			6. Let cool in the oven with the door open for 15 minutes to prevent cracking[5].

	~~Enjoy your~~ delicious winter squash pie!		== Tips for Success ==

			- Roasting the squash concentrates its flavor and removes excess moisture1<ref name="ref7">7</ref>.
			- Using homemade condensed milk can provide a fresher flavor than canned[7].
			- Fully baking the pie crust before adding the filling ensures a crisp bottom[7].
			- The pie can be made 1-3 days in advance and refrigerated[7].

			== Serving and Storage ==

			- Serve at room temperature with whipped cream or ice cream1<ref name="ref5">5</ref>.
			- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days[7].
			- The pie can also be frozen for longer storage[2].

			By following these steps and tips, you can create a delicious winter squash pie that rivals traditional pumpkin pie in flavor and texture. The natural sweetness and smooth consistency of winter squash make it an excellent choice for a comforting autumn or winter dessert.
