My family asks for this all year instead of birthday cakes.  The trick is to not use as many spices as most recipes call for.  We really like the simple taste of pumpkin so I omit the cloves and ginger all together. It’s smooth and fresh.

Jenny's Pumpkin Pie

This is so good, we eat it all year.  It's pure comfort food after a nice meal.  Less spice and more pumpkin flavor!  My recipe makes 2 pies so there is plenty for the next day too!
