Ingredients
  

Graham Crackers Crust

  • 1 packet Graham Crackers
  • 40 g melted butter

Pumpkin Ganache

  • 300 g white chocolate
  • 50 g unsalted butter
  • 50 g honey
  • 110 g double cream
  • 160 g pumpkin puree
  • 4 g salt
  • 1 tsp pumpkin spice

Cream Topping

  • 280 ml double cream
  • ½ tsp vanilla essence

Instructions
 

  • Start by making the ganache: place the white chocolate and butter in a microwave-safe dish and gently melt in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring in between, until the chocolate is melted fully.
  • Transfer the chocolate mixture in a container tall enough to fit a hand blender and warm the honey in the microwave for 10 seconds, then add to the chocolate and mix well with your hand blender.
  • Stream in the cream slowly, then add the pumpkin, salt and spices and blend for a minute or two until everything is combined well. Now place this in the fridge for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
  • The following day, crush the packet of Graham Crackers and melt the butter, then combine together and place in a pie dish, making sure it is evenly distributed.
  • Transfer the pumpkin ganache on top of the pie shell and smooth properly. Place in the fridge and prepare your cream topping.
  • Whip the cream and vanilla essence until it's soft, and place on the pie according to your taste just before you are ready to serve.
