I always use the canned pumpkin. Not the pure pumpkin either. I like Libby's Easy Pumpkin Pie Mix...it already has all the spices and sugar added to it. You just add milk and an egg.Okay, this is going to sound REALLY lame, and I apologise in advance, but to all of you that make pumpkin pies - do you use real pumpkin as in scooped out from the large orange gourd or tinned??
When I was living in Canada, I must admit to using E D Smith's tinned pumpkin pie filling, which was really tasty (hey, at least I tried; I could've bought one!). Now I'm in Scotland, cannot find tinned pumpkin anywhere so if I want pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving (and for me, that's Oct 8th) I'm going to have to do it from scratch.
Anybody got any tried and tested methods......please???!!!umpkin:
