Well its that time of year again. Time to get ready for Thanksgiving and make all the plans and preparations, find out where everyone is meeting, and what everyone is bringing. I offered to host it, but its at one of my sisters’ this time. And it was requested I bring a pumpkin pie. A plain boring pumpkin pie. I really don’t think I’ve made simple pumpkin pie for years, my usual pumpkin pie is a maple pecan pumpkin pie. So I’m posting that recipe.

If you want just straight pumpkin pie, then just fill up the crust with the filling and don’t worry about space for the topping! Its still a fine pie, just not the love child of a pecan pie and a pumpkin pie.

NOTES:

When making the pecan pumpkin pie, you don’t use all the pumpkin pie filling and I generally just make a few tarts with the remainder.

For the pie in the picture I used a graham cracker crust.
