Martha’s Fresh Pumpkin Pie

Posted by on Monday, November 23, 2009 · 6 Comments 

Aren’t the holidays just the best? It’s amazing to me how quickly they come and go each year. I can’t believe Thanksgiving is just days away.

So, confession: I’ve never made a pumpkin pie before. Not even a fake one, out of the can. I guess I’ve never really had a reason to, since someone always brings a pumpkin pie to Thanksgiving. This week I finally tried my hand at making one, using a tried and true Martha recipe.

I made the fresh pumpkin puree about a week earlier, so I didn’t have to fiddle with all of that extra work. The basics of this pie are brown sugar, pumpkin puree, eggs and condensed milk. I was surprised about how little pumpkin there was in this recipe and how soupy the filling was when I poured it in. Not what I expected.

But about an hour (20 minutes longer than Martha suggests.. get on your game, girl!) in the oven and poof! The pie sets up, nice and pumpkin-y and perfect. The color is a little lighter than your usual pie, but that’s on account of the fresh puree. What do they do to that canned stuff to make it so much darker?


Overall, my pumpkin pie making experience was successful. The only thing I’d say about the pie is that it could use some more spice. I think I’d double what she’s got in there next time.

Happy Thanksgiving- make sure to eat lots of pie.

(I’d suggest keeping it in the oven an extra 15-20 minutes until it sets up, and also upping the spices.)

    Hello. After much searching on the web and finding recipes with Cinnamon Toast Crunch as an ingredient, I finally found an archived blog entry of yours which proclaims that you have found a recipe for homemade cinnamon toast crunch. I tried to find a link to contact you, but this was the only way I could figure out how to do it. I would be forever grateful if you would share the recipe with me. My e-mail is xxskatachick121xx@gmail.com and if you could delete this comment after reading it, that would be much appreciated as well.

    I’m growing pumpkins for the first time this year and was tickled to read the account of your little adventure. I’m a bit of a Martha junkie myself!
