Pumpkin Pie Recipe

Description: Traditional Pumpkin pie is a must for Thanksgiving. It is also tops on the list of pies for Christmas. As a matter of fact, two Christmas songs speak about Pumpkin Pie for the holidays.  But, try not to forget it during the other times of the year. It has the same taste regardless of season.


Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups Cooked, strained pumpkin(or canned)
2/3 cup Sugar
1/4 cup Brown Sugar
1 1/2 cups Evaporated Skim Milk
3 Eggs
3/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon Ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon Ginger
1 teaspoon Grated Orange Peel
1/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 Unbaked Pie Shell


How to Make Pumpkin Pie:
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degree.
  2. Mix pumpkin, sugars, orange peel and spices in  large bowl.
  3. Add evaporated milk and eggs.
  4. Mix all ingredients well
  5. Pour pumpkin filling into pie shell.
  6. Bake at 450 degrees for fifteen minutes.
  7. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 45 minutes more.

TIP: If crust begins to get too brown, loosely cover crust only with foil.


Variations:
  • Substitute allspice for nutmeg.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of Bourbon for Bourbon Pumpkin pie.


Serving Tips and Suggestions:
  • Everyone likes a little pumpkin pies with their whipped cream. Try putting a cherry on top of the whipped cream for color.
  • Fresh blueberry or shaved chocolate also is effective in adding color. Use chocolate sparingly as too much affects taste.
