How to Make Pumpkin Pie Video

When it comes to setting the table for Thanksgiving, we’d argue that pumpkin pie is the most important thing on the table. (We are dessert people, after all—we’d skip dinner if it meant we could get straight to the pie.) This is one of our most traditional pumpkin pie recipes, made totally from scratch with all the creamy, spiced goodness you and your family can handle. Because pumpkin pie filling is essentially a custard, make sure you use a regular 9-inch pie plate rather than substituting a deeper dish. The shallower pan ensures that you can press the crust up the sides far enough so the filling stays inside the pie and doesn’t run over the rim. If you’re looking for a twist on tradition, you may want to check out our Pumpkin Pie Sugar Cookies that look like mini pies (perfect for more of a bite-sized dessert spread!) or Pumpkin-Cream Cheese Pie, which is swirled with a tangy cream cheese mixture. Or if you’re one of those people who thinks pie crust just gets in the way of the filling, this crustless Impossibly Easy Pumpkin Pie is the one for you—the secret ingredient is Original Bisquick™ mix!
