Whoops, my mistake, I just read the recipe wrong, the 1 cup pumpkin and 1 cup evaporated milk , (not as I read it ) Sorry:(

I will definitely try this recipe,and I have used squash in place of pumpkin and it's delicious, a more nutty taste.

This sounds delicious, but I have a question... don't understand your terminology for the milks? I always thought canned milk and evaporated milk were the same thing...do you perhaps mean 1 can sweetened condensed milk and 1 can evaporated milk?

Since trying this pumpkin pie, it's the only recipie I use. The maple syrup makes it exceptional so that even people who don't like Pumpkin pie love it. I also love the leaf cut outs. This year I might try using sqaush instead of pumpkin in it. It's the best pie we've tried.
