Pies used to intimidate me. Baking them that is. You have to worry about the crust and the filling. It has to be the right consistency and some have special baking instructions…
This pumpkin pie is a breeze to throw together and is practically foolproof. It’s not overly sweet (you can add a bit more sugar if the filling isn’t sweet enough for you), is full of flavor, and sets beautifully.
