Crustless Pumpkin Pie with Feta

🇬🇷 Greece

Servings: 20 pieces Prep: 30 minutes Cook: 45-50 minutes Total: 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 cups grated pumpkin, unsqueezed (or squash)
  • 2â…“ cups crumbled feta cheese
  • 1 cup olive oil, plus extra to drizzle on top
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 cups all purpose flour, or as needed to form a thick batter
  • ground pepper
  • fine semolina, for sprinkling top and bottom (optional)

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C (360°F).
  2. Squeeze the grated pumpkin well by hand to remove excess moisture, then place it in a bowl.
  3. Add the milk and olive oil to the pumpkin and stir to combine. Season with ground pepper.
  4. Gradually stir in the flour until a thick batter forms.
  5. Reserve about ¼ of the feta cheese (about 80 grams) for topping. Stir the rest into the batter.
  6. Brush a round 36 cm (14-inch) pan, or similarly sized square pan, with olive oil, then lightly sprinkle with semolina or breadcrumbs to help absorb moisture and ease removal.
  7. Spread the batter evenly in the pan to about 1½ cm (¾ inch) thick for a crispy pie.
  8. Sprinkle the reserved feta on top, drizzle with olive oil, and lightly sprinkle with 1-2 tablespoons of semolina for extra crunch.
  9. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the top is golden and crispy.
  10. Cut into about 20 square pieces and serve.
