Magic Pumpkin Buckle
Meet the Cook: Probably my family's favorite pumpkin dessert, this is something I've been making since our two daughters were small. the crust mixture, which is actually poured in first, rises to the top during baking to form a rich topping. You won't get a soggy bottom crust as you do with a pie. —Darlene Brenden, Salem, Oregon

I've been making this recipe for years! It's a family favorite and great way to use my homegrown pie pumpkins!
My MIL rarely ever compliments me on my cooking or baking skills. But I halved this recipe and baked in an 8x8 dish. She said it was very good. But the real nod – she asked me to make the full-size version and bring it for Thanksgiving.
Spectacular dessert...of all the times I've made this I use Splenda as the sweetener and it always comes out great. Favorite crowd pleaser in our kitchen. Whipping it up today :-)
Not good!! Spices were overpowering and had an odd aftertaste. The same with the crust. It tasted like a biscuit not a dessert.

I'm getting ready to make this AGAIN and thought I should review it here. My husband's favorite dessert was pumpkin pie, but now he asks for this! So good and easy - a family favorite now!
Delicious and easy, what more could you want!
Absolutely Awesome, if you love pumpkin or Pumpkin pie, this is a really close second.
I wanted to try something different with pumpkin other than bread and pie. I was just surprised at the amount of sugar in it. I love sugar but a total of 2 cups plus 2 tbls. seemed excessive and a bit too sweet. I gave this 4 stars because it tasted good but really didn't taste any different than pumpkin pie. It wasn't as dense but almost custard like. I probably wouldn't make it again because if it tastes like pumpkin pie, then the pie would be easier to make.
My boss gave me this recipe last Thanksgiving and it was an instant hit! Everyone who tasted this LOVED it!!
