This is the recipe my mom adapted to my dad's taste, since he loved pumpkin pie and she hates it. My family and I all love it, I make it several times a year, sometimes without a crust and then I eat it for breakfast.
Ingredients:
2 cups pumpkin, mashed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2/3 cup sugar or 2/3 cup honey
2 large eggs
1 (13 ounce) can evaporated milk or 1 3/4 cups fresh milk
1 unbaked pie shell, 9-inch
Directions:
1. Beat all ingredients together with rotary beater or whisk.
2. Pour into pastry lined pan with high fluted edges. (For crispness, have bottom crust little thicker than 1/2-inch.).
3. Bake at 400* about 45-55 minutes or just until a silver knife inserted into side of filling comes out clean.
4. The center may still look soft, but will set later.
5. Serve slightly warm, or cold.
