    Remove some pumpkin pieces after about 5 minutes cooking time and put aside. At the end of the cooking time, drain the rest of the pumpkin flesh well on a sieve. Put double cream, milk and brown sugar in a mixing bowl and mix well. Season with cinnamon, cloves, ginger powder and nutmeg. Add eggs and stir in. Mix the pumpkin flesh and the egg mixture thoroughly. Grease a pie dish (26 cm Ø) well. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface and line the pie form with it. Cut off any excess dough at the edges. Form another ball, roll out on a floured work surface and cut out some leaves with a cookie cutter. Whisk the egg yolk. Place the sheets on a baking tray lined with baking paper, brush with egg yolk and bake in a preheated oven (electric range: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for approx. 20 minutes.
