Pumpkin Pie

The other day, I made a pumpkin pie.  It was easy to make.  It tasted good.  We had it for dinner because it is the pumpkin season.  We used the pumpkin from Audrey and Adrian’s jack o lantern.

For the crust, mix these ingredients all together.  Then push into the pie pan.  Then put them in the oven for a little bit. (Ten minutes at 350 degrees).  Momma says you can use a regular pie crust too, but we did not want to make one.

6 Tablespoons butter

1 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Then mix all the ingredients for the pie and pour into the crust.

1 cup cooked pumpkin

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ginger

1/4 teaspoon cloves

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup milk

2 egg yolks

2 egg whites beaten stiff

Then bake at  425 degrees for 10 minutes.  Reduce oven to 375 degrees and bake abut 30 minutes until filling is set.  Cool some before eating.
