Cup of Yum
Filling:
- Combine the sugar, salt, cornstarch, and pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl.
- After that, whisk in the egg, pumpkin puree, and evaporated milk.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Cover the top of the springform pan with aluminum foil tightly.
- Add 1 ½ cups of water to the pressure cooker and place a trivet on the bottom.
- Either use an aluminum sling or if your trivet has handles, lower the pan onto the trivet in the pot.
Pressure Cook:
- Lock the lid and point the valve to sealing.
- Cook on High Pressure for 35 minutes.
- When the cooking time ends, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure with a quick pressure release.
- When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid and check the pie for doneness.
- If the middle is set, it's done; if not, pressure cook for an additional 5 minutes.
- Remove the aluminum foil cover and cool the springform pan on a wire rack. After that, refrigerate covered with plastic wrap for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Serve with whipped cream and additional chopped pecans, if desired.
- Drizzle each slice with caramel sauce.
