I was so surprised to get a call from Doug Lantz’s grandma, who is 96 years young, asking me to send her a recipe for pumpkin pie. She said she has never been able to make a good one. After a conversation with her, I offered to make a pie to see if she liked it. She said, “No, I want to learn to make one myself.” So, Grandmother Collins, here is one I make. I hope you like it. Pumpkin Pie 2/3 cup sugar 2 Tbsp. flour ½ tsp. salt ½ tsp. nutmeg ½ tsp. cloves ½ tsp ginger 1 tsp. cinnamon 2 cups cooked pumpkin 2 eggs, beaten 1 cup milk 1 Tbsp. butter, melted Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix together sugar, flour, salt and spices and set aside. Mix cooked pumpkin, beaten eggs, milk and melted butter in a large bowl. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Bake at 350 degrees in an uncooked pie shell for 35 to 45 minutes or until firm. <em>Sometimes I warm my filling before I put it in the crust.</em> <em>If this doesn’t satisfy you, we will try another one. I have several recipes, but I like this one best.</em> <em>Louise</em>
