Pumpkin Pie

From Minecraft Wiki

Pumpkin Pie is a food item added in 1.4.2 - The Pretty Scary Update. Pumpkin pie functions as a normal food item, a single pie being eaten once, unlike Cake which needs to be placed on a block before consumption. Farmer Villagers will sell pumpkin pie for Emeralds. Pumpkin pie can also be found in taiga and snow taiga house Chests.

The recipe is shapeless, and so the ingredients can be placed however you desire, and would still result in the creation of the pie. Using a pumpkin pie on a Composter will raise its level by 1.

Reliability[edit | edit source]

Pumpkin pie only requires three ingredients to make, and nothing needs to be cooked, which means one can make it with one's 2x2 inventory crafting grid. This makes it a fairly reliable food source compared to the likes of food items such as steak (which requires a furnace) and cake (which requires a crafting table and 3 buckets of milk) when one may not have access to these things, even temporarily. Assuming one has the right resources (pumpkins can be difficult to find, after all), pumpkin pie can be an excellent early-game food item, due to its relative cheapness (more or less excluding the somewhat elusive pumpkin) and high hunger replenishment, as well as an inexpensive later-game food item.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • In the Spanish language option, pumpkin pie is called Pastel de Zanahoria, which is wrong because Pastel de Zanahoria actually means Carrot Cake.
