Pumpkin Pie…

 

So, it’s been a while…

(I’m sorry)

But here you go… In preparation for our day of Giving Thanks,  I’m hoping to bridge the gap with an offering of Pumpkin Pie. 

Who can’t resist a pumpkin pie?

This on turned out quite nice…

Here’s what I did…

 

 

 

 

 

Pumpkin Pie

1 frozen pie crust (I’m a little embarrassed) cooked per the manufacturer’s instructions.

Then I pooped the top of a can of Libby’s 100% pure Pumpkin (again, my cheeks are reddened), then per the label mixed it with 3/4 c. sugar (I actually used 1/4 c. brown and 1/2 c. granulated), 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. ground ginger, 1/4 tsp ground cloves, 2 large eggs, 1 can (12 oz.) evaporated milk. Here’s where I got creative… I added 1/4 tsp. nutmeg, and also sprinkled a little on the top with about a 1/2 tsp. granulated sugar. 

I popped the pie in the oven, 425°F for 15 mins, then 350°F for 45 mins and there you have it… Thanksgiving in a shell.
