This is a very tasty pumpkin pie. I really like the addition of applesauce, caus it makes the pie fruity and lighter than normal pumpkin pies. Instead of pecans I used a crunchy cereal plus 2 ts more oil, which went really well with it. Unfortunately I cant give this five stars though, because it had just too much ginger in the streusel topping for my taste. I already reduced it to 1ts, but still...Next time Ill just leave it out and then itll be a definite keeper! Thank you for sharing, DiB's!
