It's that time of year again, crisp apples, falling leaves and a really good pumpkin pie! I made one yesterday and I must say it tasted pretty good, in fact I think it tasted great. Every year I think about experimenting with new recipes for that traditional pie, but this is one pie that shouldn't deviate too much from the standard because I think it has a deep association with tradition and childhood memories. I'm not going to include a pie pastry recipe this time around, because that is another whole issue, at least in this household. (My husband and I disagree on the best pie pastry recipe) With all that said, give this recipe a try and hope you will be pleased.
