Preparation
- Prepare the spelt crust by rolling out the spelt dough into an 11-inch circle and lining a 9-inch pie plate. Crimp the edges and freeze for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C), then blind bake the crust with parchment and weights for 25 minutes. Remove weights and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until golden.
- In an electric mixer, combine mascarpone and granulated sugar, then add 1 egg and vanilla. Set aside 1/2 cup of this mixture.
- Combine the remaining mascarpone mixture with the remaining eggs, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, spices, and salt. Blend until smooth.
- Layer half of the pumpkin filling in the crust, add dollops of reserved mascarpone, top with remaining pumpkin filling, and swirl to create a marbled effect.
- Bake the pie at 325°F (165°C) for 45-55 minutes until the center is slightly wobbly but puffed.
- Let the pie cool at room temperature for an hour, then refrigerate for at least 6 hours before serving.

Notes
Chill the crust for the best texture, and use fresh spices for enhanced flavor.
