“This is the best pumpkin pie I have ever had. All you have to do is try it once and you're sure to be hooked, just like my family is. I found this recipe a few years ago, and we have enjoyed it ever since! Serve with whipped topping.” - by Lois

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Whisk together the eggs, pumpkin, milk, brown sugar, brandy, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg in a large bowl until smooth. Pour the mixture into the pie crusts. Cover the outside edge of each pie with aluminum foil.
Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes; remove foil. Continue to bake until a knife inserted near the center of a pie comes out clean, about 25 minutes more.
Cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Store unused portion in refrigerator.

"I really liked this recipe, however I think there may have been a couple mistakes. Two tablespoons of cinnamon seemed way too much and the recipe said two pie crusts. The ingredients only made one pie..." See more although the crust was really full. I made two pies. In one I put one and a quarter tablespoons of cinnamon and the other I put a little more than half a tablespoon. I think both pies still had too much cinnamon. I did like the flavor of the brandy coming through. I will use this recipe again but I will definitely use less cinnamon."

"I followed the amounts of spice for a regular pumpkin pie recipe, namely for one pie you should use: 1 teaspoon of Ground Cinnamon 1/2 tsp of Ground All spice 1/4 tsp of ground cloves 1/8 tsp of groun..." See mored nutmeg And each of these you can add more or less of depending on your preferences. For this recipe I also used: 1 Cup of brown sugar 2/3 Cup of milk (minus a table spoon or two of milk). Since I did not have Brandy I used some raspberry Chambord Liquor I had in the house and this recipe came out so wonderfully delicious. I do not think I will ever make pumpkin pie without a little bit of spirits ever again! It added a little bit of extra smooth flavor to the pie, heavenly! "

"2 TABLESPOONS of Cinnamon RUINS this recipe. Try one TEASPOON, maybe 2 teaspoons. The author should change the recipe because it definitely has a typo. It was so strong that I had to start over. ..." See more"
