This is for all the people who don't like pumpkin pie. I don't like pumpkin pie either, but this one's different. It's so spicy!! It has become a much anticipated family custom. It's best to make your own pie shell instead of using the ready made kind because they aren't deep enough. This recipe is easily doubled.

The flavor of this recipe is perfect. This is what pumpkin pie is supposed to taste like! I tried this once with canned pumpkin and again another time with fresh pumpkin and it turned out terrific both ways! Read More

The taste was okay but it was still runny almost raw in the middle after baking time 10 minutes. I will try again perhaps cut down on the milk some and bake a bit longer. I like spicy and dense pie. This has potential it's not "fluffy " but as written it's not quite cooked at the end of the baking time. Read More

I made this for Thanksgiving this year. I doubled the recipe and made 4 pies (I didn't use deep-dish shells). Two are currently in the freezer to save. The flavor of this was great. This may just be my pumpkin pie recipe from now on. Read More

I think with the cream and milk it was lighter than the normal condensed milk version and it was much superior to the evaporated milk versions I have tried where the evaporated milk is easily identified with the pumpkin and spices. My pie was very bland but I am certain this had something to do with the lacklustre canned pumpkin I used. I will try it again and use fresh pumpkin next time. I will also use all brown sugar to bring out the spices. I found it was (too?) sweet but needed more spice to give it that pumpkin pie warmth we expect from a pie. Read More
