Pumpkin pie is a simple and delicious dessert. I have tried to make this recipe as easy as possible. You can play with the spices a little bit to adjust them according to your liking. For example, if you are a cinnamon lover, you can add a little more. The same applies to the rest of the spices. One spice I sometimes add is ground cloves. About 1/4 tsp adds a little bit of extra kick. Not everybody has this spice on hand, however. If you don’t like the filling too sweet, you can cut back on the sugar.
I find it easier to buy the pumpkin puree in the can, but you make it from scratch if you wish. I often buy premade pie shells from the store. If you have some extra time on your hands, we have a really nice pie shell recipe.
Pumpkin pie is a great dessert recipe for Thanksgiving or Christmas. I enjoy it any time of the year, however. Give this a try on the weekend. Your friends and family will love it.
