Ingredients

How to make it

  • In large skillet:
  • Place butter in skillet and melt
  • Add pumpkin (even if it is can) saute until water evaporates. This gives it a richer taste.
  • Add evaporated milk, scald together and cook 10 minutes.
  • Cool at this point if you want.
  • Then pour into blender
  • Puree, (take the top piece off so steam escapes if not cool)
  • Add to blender and puree the following:
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 3 large eggs
  • pinch of salt
  • Pour into chilled shell
  • bake 425 for 10-15 minutes
  • turn down to 350 for additional 30 minutes
  • IF YOU USE A GLASS PIE PLATE LOWER YOUR OVEN TEMP 25 DEGREES.
  • *** PIE SECRET TO CRISPY CRUST: COLD SHELL-COLD FILLING,
  • WARM SHELL-WARM FILLING
  • ** AT THE TIME OF CREATING THIS RECIPE, MANY MANY YEARS AGO. I DID NOT LIKE ALL THE SPICES IN THE PIE. I SINCE THEN HAVE EVOLVED, LOL. SO FEEL FREE TO ADD YOUR SPICES. I AM ADDICTED TO FRESH NUTMEG...NOTHING SMELLS SO GREAT AS FRESHLY GRATED NUTMEG.
  • **I USUALLY COOK AND CUBE MY PUMPKIN, CAN WORKS FINE BUT THE FRESH PUMPKIN IS SO GOOD.
