Trader Joe's is selling miniature pumpkins- about seven or eight inches tall. So I bought one and made a pumpkin pie last night.
Sliced pumpkin, waiting to roast.
It came out alright, despite the fact I had run out of cinnamon and the brown sugar was rock hard.
I used a store bought crust, though.
This is the first time I made a pumpkin pie from a real pumpkin. It tastes very good- I had it for breakfast.
I really need to force myself to learn how to make pie crust. Part of the reason I dread doing so is my small kitchen- I have to roll the dough on my table and I end up with a mess of flour everywhere. If I ever sell my house my next kitchen will be huge, have a dishwasher, and a nice counter space to do things on.
