This is a very easy, very good pumpkin pie recipe (I'm not much of a baker and even I can handle this one. ) It originally came to our family by way of a series of cookbooks published in the 1960's by high school home economics teachers: Mrs. Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/2 teaspoon allspice |
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/2 teaspoon ginger |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 eggs |
1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin |
1 2/3 cups undiluted evaporated milk (usually 1 large can) |
1 9 inch single unbaked pastry shell |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Blend the sugar, spices and salt together.
3. Add eggs, pumpkin and evaporated milk.
4. Stir to blend mixture well.
5. Pour into unbaked pie shell.
