Halloween, my favorite holiday, is almost upon us and one of the reasons I love this time of year are the tasty pumpkin pies my Mother and Grandmothers used to make.  Here is an old yet simple recipe that I hope you enjoy as much as I do. HAPPY HALLOWEEN.

 

  • 1 ½ cups fresh pumpkin
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon      
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 eggs, slightly beaten
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • ¼ tsp salt

 

Combine ingredients.  Mix thoroughly.  Pour into pastry-lined pie pan.  Bake in hot oven (425 degrees) for about 25 minutes, or until an inserted knife comes out clean.  Serve with whipped cream on top.
