The Perfect Pumpkin Pie Recipe, Not Just For Thanksgiving

Fall this year in Southern Alberta has been beautiful! I don’t remember when we have has these unbelievable temperatures in October! The Fall colours are in full effect right now and I am enjoying every minute of it.

Canadian Thanksgiving is just around the corner and every year I make some pumpkin pies. I’m not a huge fan of pumpkin but Kevin loves it so I always make sure to make a couple just for him.

I wish I could say I made this recipe but it comes from E.D Smith and they have perfected it so I don’t really feel there is room to improve it. One year I may try it with real pumpkin instead of canned but I will leave it for another year. I did use my no-fail pie crust recipe for this and I am always happy with how these pies turn out.

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and get to eat as much pie as you can!
