The flavor of this pumpkin pie rises above all others! It is absolutely yummy, and , really when can we say that about most pumpkin pies? Daughter did a "trial run" with this, and it will be on our Thanksgiving table tomrrow! Thank you so much for this great recipe! -
I have made this several times...by request. It is extra-special and always well received. The ginger praline is a flavorful addition. -
Yummy. -
This is a fantastic pie!!!!!I did use a Pillsbury roll out crust but that was the only change....PERFECT!Thanks,Mean.....PeggyLynn -
I am NOT a pumpkin pie lover. However, this was amazing. I used Julia Child's pie crust recipe, and this was just terrific. I loved the ginger praline layer, as did my in-laws. The pumpkin custard was dense and set up perfectly, unlike so many disgustingly squishy pumpkin pies I've had before. Thank you for posting!

I am living with the most wonderful boyfriend in the world in his 150 year old farmhouse. I also have a most fabulous 16-year old son! I love to cook - it's a major stress reliever for me and I thoroughly enjoy the reaction of others when they like my dishes! My other passion is sailing - BF and I plan to take off from Oregon toward the South Pacific in a couple years to live on his boat.
