Pumpkin Pie

Does anyone on here have a delicious pumpkin pie recipe? If so, would you please share it on here? For Thanksgiving on Thursday, I have been designated by one of my daughters to make homemade pumpkin pies! I told her I would buy a couple of pies but she was insistent that I make them from scratch! I can cook and bake but have never tried to make pumpkin pie. doh moping

Thanks for your help!thumbs up

Ive never made a pumpkin pie so sorry but cant help you out.
Good luck baking, and have a lovely time with the family.
Thank you Ish! Wish you could help me bake them!hug
Would love to learn. I love cooking, just hate cleaning up after.
It is learning to cook....or starve.laugh
Ccincy,

Thank you for a great recipe!hug I will try it on one of the pies.
I usually start with a packet of seeds. laugh

My secret? (Well...the wife's if truth be known.)
Don't use a pumpkin. scold
Butternut or Buttercup Squash makes the BEST "pumpkin" pie.
I prefer Butternut.

You suggest you will be making more than one pie.
Use both & let diners decide which variant is better. That'll make you look like a great chef who has great variations on great recipes. wink

Split & bake or steam the squash.
Scoop the cooked squash from the shell & use as you would canned pumpkin.

A good touch...set pecan halves on top of the filling, if desired.

Likely, diners will notice "something different" about the pie(s).
If you keep the "squash secret" hmmm you know what you'll be bringing from now on. grin

There is usually a good variety of pies to choose from. As well as pies, there is a nice variety of homemade baking to be purchasedyay yay .
After attending these bakesales, I then tell friends and family I did the baking, but no one believes me,rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
All kidding aside, I find it good to support these charities, and the goodies I buy also make GREAT gifts.

Crust- flour and butter do not over do it to a soft dough. it better then store crust. for pumpkin go along with the can of pumpkin mix recipe that is on the can, but do not add the salt . all I add is the pumpkin mix.
I say go to the pie shop grin
Thanks to everyone for their input! Maybe with all of these suggestions, I can open a pie shop!rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
